Employer Advice for Students1 Be confident, ask questions

2 Know a few things about the company you are going to talk to, good hand shake, no typos in resumes, hand resume to company with text facing employer

3 Be more confident. Have examples of work or personal experience and how it relates to our mission.

4 Research some companies briefly before the job fair and be prepared with questions about the company and job. I was most impressed by individuals that did this.

5 Be confident, energetic, and engaging when speaking to potential employers. First impressions last forever.

6 Coming prepared with specific questions beyond "what jobs do you have open"

7 Don't be afraid to introduce yourself. Also important to have strong eye contact

8 Be open to all possibilities - go out of the box of your major to explore ways to use your major in all kinds of ways.

9 To be able to articulate what kind of position and work they are really interested in pursuing or passionate about.
