• January 17, 2024 - How To: Gain Experience for your Future Career (Register Here!)
• January 24, 2024 - How To: Small Talk & Network (Register Here!)

During the Fair

• Be positive and confident. If you are comfortable, provide a firm handshake. Make eye contact. And perhaps most importantly, smile!
• Before you leave a booth, ask reps for their business cards so that you can promptly send a thank you note. Having the business card of the rep just spoke with allows you to have a direct contact with the organization and also the proper spelling of the rep's name. If they don't have any cards, ask how they would prefer you to contact them after the fair (email, LinkedIn, etc.)
• Meet 1:1 with our Career Strategists/Counsellors right at the fair!
• Learn how to introduce yourself, handshaking etiquette, what to say to reps, get interview tips and more. Look for our "Questions? Start Here!" booth inside the fair.

 After the Fair

• Keep the momentum going and take the next step!
• Book an appointment with one of our Career Counsellors or Career Strategists to explore your interests and take the next step in finding experiential opportunities that fit your career goals. The AA&CC also offers drop-in appointments Monday to Friday - no appointment needed! Please see https://www.utsc.utoronto.ca/aacc/career-advising-services
• Sign up for an Employment Peer Coaching appointment to have your resume critiqued.
• Login to CLNx to search for additional opportunities throughout the year.

You are welcome to bring copies of your resume to apply in-person. Most employers will also offer you the opportunity to apply online.
