Questions & Answers
Yes! Please bring at least 1 resume so that an employer can provide feedback.
If you don't have a resume but would like to participate, stop by Career Services for help during Drop-In Hours, Monday - Friday, 10 a.m. - 1 p.m. in Central High Room 206 or make an appointment on Handshake.
These employers know that you're a busy college student, so they don't expect you to dress up. Business casual is always a safe way to make a great first impression, but there are no requirements to dress a certain way. If you want to dress to impress, make sure to check out the Professional Clothing Closet and get some free outfits!
While it is unlikely you will get a job offer during the resume review, we still recommend treating this as a networking opportunity. Make a great impression by asking the employer questions about their company and even dressing in business casual clothes.
We agree that meeting employers for the first time can be a little nerve-wracking. Luckily, Career Services is here to help! Stop by the Career Center during Drop-In Hours, Monday-Friday, 10 a.m. - 1 p.m., in Central High room 206 to talk to a career counselor and get tips for having that first conversation with an employer. Don't stress, we're here to help!
