HOW TO MAKE
A Job and Internship Fair
WORK FOR YOU
If there is one word for you to remember during the fair, it is TALK, TALK, TALK! Take the initiative and
interact with the employer representatives. Remember, these people have come to the University of Mary
Washington to talk to you! Listed below are some key tips for you to consider, as well as some sample
questions for you to ask.
During the fair:
Be conscious of the employer’s time, especially if there is a line behind you.
Do not be too distracted by the employers’ giveaways. Stay focused on your purpose.
Approach employers on your own and avoid walking in “packs.”
Create and display your name tag. The visual reminder will help some employers remember your
name.
Ask questions:
o Would you please tell me about the entry-level employment or internship opportunities within
your organization? (e.g. job titles, typical responsibilities, etc.)
o What type of background/characteristics do you seek in people applying for these positions?
o What do you consider ideal experience for working within your organization?
o What are the advantages/challenges of working for this organization?
o What advice do you have for someone interested in an entry-level position within your
organization?
o How do you predict that the current economic situation may affect the job market in general
in your field?
o What happens to my application once I submit it online?
Ask representatives for business cards.
After the fair:
Follow-up with employers of interest by sending a short thank-you letter or an e-mail. A thank-you
letter includes the following: a statement of thanks, a reminder of the field you are interested in, a
summary of your skills and qualifications, confirmed interest in the company/position, and
acknowledgement of the next step.
For assistance with any of the above or any other career-related questions or concerns, contact the Center for
Career and Professional Development at 540-654-5646 to schedule an individual appointment.
