Dress for the Job You Want:
- Being in the right mindset starts with wearing the right clothes. Dressing appropriately could make you stand out as the professional candidate a company is looking for. Business casual attire is usually appropriate.
Have a Resume Ready:
- Make sure you have an edited and spell-checked resume ready so if you are asked for one by an employer, you're prepared.
Don't Be Shy:
- Have questions ready for employers you're interested in speaking with and show them you're interested. Having questions tailored for each employer you're interested in speaking to will show you have initiative and are forward-thinking.

A General Announcement to All Employers and Attendees
As an employer, you must be offering a position for hire at the Job Fair. If you are not offering a position for hire and the intended purpose for attending the Job Fair is to promote your organization, then you will be asked to leave.
Please be advised that opportunities offered by multilevel marketing companies do not qualify as traditional employment. Therefore, it is our policy to prohibit their registration.
If you are an attendee, your intended purpose should be to look for a position and not to solicit business from employers. If we are informed of solicitors you will be asked to leave.
