KCC Job Fair


How to Rock the Job & Internship Fair

What students should do before, during, and after a job & internship fair

 

The KBCC Job & Internship Fair is Thursday, October 5th

Time: 11am-2pm

Location:  U-219/220

 

If you are going to a Job & Internship Fair, your first interaction matters.  Before going to the fair, look for information about employers first to see what they are about and whether working for them is something you are interested in.  A list of employers for the KBCC fair is available at the Career Development Center (C102).

You will have to dress professionally to meet employers.  Make sure you are well presented. Come at least 15 minutes early, if possible, to line up and get ahead of the competition.  Introduce yourself with your name, major and a quick summary of professional skills and/or experience. 

Have many copies of your resume with you. Some employers might ask for your cover letter too.  You can request their email to send the letter to them.  Make sure your resume and cover letter is proof read by a Career Advisor.

 

Send a thank you email after the fair to help employers remember you.
