Important Info: COVERLETTER Cover letters are important documents of introduction, relaying who you are and what you offer to a potential employer. They are written in a business-letter format. You should use simple and straightforward sentence structure, but avoid starting every sentence with “I” or “my.” The reader should reach the end of your letter thinking, “This person fits the job!” because you used the language from the job description and confidently and succinctly told them that you are the match. Dos • Collect the correct company information including contacts, job description and mailing information • Tailor the letter to a specific position and company • Address the letter to a specific person • Elaborate on skills and qualifications not listed on your resume • Use same color and quality paper and envelope • Type address on envelope • Keep letter to one page in length • Obtain input from others for opinions on content • Proof and reproof • Ask for an interview and provide dates and times of availability

Don’ts • Address letter to “Gentlemen” or “To Whom It May Concern” • Make each paragraph too lengthy, limit each to 4-5 sentences • Exaggerate or claims skills that are untrue • Make the letter so general that it could go to any company • Handwrite your application materials, except your signature • Forget to say what position for which you are applying • Begin any paragraph with “I” or “My” • Fold your letter or resume

HOW TO WORK A CAREER FAIR

Career events are an opportunity to network with company and organization representatives and potentially apply for jobs and internships. Business professional dress (sometimes business casual) is typically expected, and attendees should bring copies of their professional resume.

DRESS THE PART

PREPARE WHAT YOU WILL SAY

Much like you would dress to attend an interview, arrive clean, pressed and well groomed.

Prepare an “Elevator Speech,” a 30-60 second introduction of yourself that you share with each recruiter. The plan is to…

Men

– – – – – –

– – – – – –

Pressed, button down shirt (white or light blue preferred) Pressed, well tailored suit (navy, gray, tan or black) Dark socks (not white athletic ) that cover the calf Belt and shoes to compliment suit (black or cordovan) Earrings are not suggested Facial hair should be shaved or well trimmed

Women – – – – –

Pressed, well tailored skirt/pants suit (navy, gray, tan or black) Pressed, button down shirt or shell (should not be too snug) Skirt should come to knees (avoid extreme slit) Wear minimal jewelry Shoes should be closed toe with low to mid-height heal

Introduce yourself, making eye contact with a smile Offer a firm hand shake and a resume Tell what sort of employment you seek Summarize your relevant education, experience and skills Close by reiterating your interest and asking questions Thank the recruiter, ask for business card and leave

Do not manipulate their time by talking about personal life. Stick to relevant details. Practice your speech here: 15secondpitch.com. Conducting personal research will help you develop your own questions, but here are some examples to get you started:

– What career opportunities are available for individuals with my degree and skills? – What activities will best prepare me for your positions? – What qualities are you looking for in new hires? Everyone – Do you hire students for full-time jobs, co-ops, internships or summer employment? How do I apply for these positions? – Don’t smell - no smoking, perfume, cologne and brush your – What is the best way to apply for a position with your company? teeth and bring mints (if needed) but no gum – What type of opportunities do you currently have available? – Eat a snack prior to avoid distractions caused by hunger – What are your future hiring plans? – Bring resumes in a portfolio and avoid carrying bulky bag(s) – Know your schedule as some recruiters plan next day interviews – What type of training do you offer new hires? – For what geographic locations do you hire? PREPARE TO TALK WITH EMPLOYERS – What makes your organization different from competitors? – Describe the work environment at your organization. You do not want this to be you: “Hi, I’m Jane Doe. What does – What characteristics describe successful people at your company? your company do?” You want to impress recruiters with your knowledge of their company, available positions and communicate – I’m very interested in a position. What is the next step? your fit. Research career event attendees via the Career Services USE YOUR TIME WISELY website or Racer Tracks. – Come early as some recruiters leave the event early ACTIVATE YOUR RACER TRACKS ACCOUNT – Do not travel with friends, be an individual – Know with whom you want to talk, and visit those tables first – Log into your MyGate account – Wait your turn, not interrupting others engaged with recruiter – Select the Racer Tracks icon – Complete your profile – Network with other recruiters, not missing career opportunities – Upload resume, cover letter and unofficial transcript FOLLOW UP – Publish resume to a resume book for additional exposure – Research employers prior to career events – Ask for a business card from each recruiter with whom you visit – Search for available jobs – After the event, send an email thanking the recruiter for his/her – Review upcoming events time and asking any questions may have arisen – Attach your resume to the message PREPARE YOUR RESUME – Mail a hand written thank you as well – Check to see if the company (not the individual) has a LinkedIn A resume should summarize your past experiences that and/or Twitter profile and begin following it demonstrate relevant skills, personal traits and successes that communicate your fit to their company and available position(s). It should fit on one page, have no grammatical or spelling errors and be printed on resume paper. See Resume Tip Sheet on website.

Career Services invites all students, regardless of classification (freshman, sophomore, junior, senior or graduate student), and alumni to attend every available and applicable Career Fair. Career fairs are an excellent opportunity to network for internships and future employment! Prior to entering a career event, students and alumni are required to register/sign-in. At the registration table, participants are provided name tags that identify classification and major. Should freshmen, sophomores or juniors attend? Career fairs are a vital component to help people achieve their professional goals. Career Fairs can provide valuable opportunities to explore different careers and seek employment, whether a full-time position or internship. There are many reasons to attend a career fair: – Access to recruiters from a wide array of companies and industries in one location. – Find out about available job openings and submit resumes in person. – Explore different, and even discover new, career options and possible future areas of employment. – Identify “what it takes” to land the job at various companies – what education, background, skills, and/or coursework is needed to succeed in a field or at a particular company. – Practice interview and networking skills. – Gain job searching advice from the recruiters who hire college graduates. – Develop a network of business contacts. – Learn about different industries.

How do I make a good impression? – Print your resume on quality paper and don’t staple to other documents. – Bring a portfolio to hold your resume, pen, paper and any support documents you have as well as has a slot for business cards. – Have your schedule available in case you have the chance to set up an interview. – Have a list of companies that interest you most as you may want to add notes from your research. – Keep breath-mints on-hand to help counteract dry mouth and bad breath.

When greeting recruiters: Make eye contact, smile, introduce yourself and offer a firm handshake. Be personable; keep the conversation light and comfortable. Be prepared to present your elevator speech. Ask thoughtful questions specific to the company or industry. Leave a copy of your resume and request a business card from the recruiter so you can follow up with him or her later. – Thank the recruiter for his or her time and for considering your resume. Let recruiters know you enjoyed speaking with them and that you will be in touch. – – – –
