Blog Post: Career Expo last minute checklist


posted Friday, November 6, 2009

Hey folks,

Career Expo is Tuesday November 10th from 2-6pm at the TCC.  You can meet dozens of local employers who are actively hiring.  Here's what you need to know.

1.  Dress for an interview.  I know this isn't a fashion show, but you want to make a great first impression and looking sharp is a key part of this.  No shorts, flip flops, or inappropriate t-shirts please. 

2.  Be prepared to apply online.  Many employers will ask you to apply online.  Some will accept a paper resume while others will not.  Be prepared by bringing several copies of your resume.  If an employer asks you to apply online and/or doesn't accept your resume it DOES NOT mean they're not interested in you.  It simply means they've moved toward an online application process.  Career Expo is an opportunity to make a personal connection with another human being, and to ask questions about the company.  

3.  Don't forget to take advantage of free resume review offered through the day.

4.  Bring $6 if you plan to park at the TCC.  The City of Tucson charges for parking at these events.  It's not a Jobing thing.  There may be free parking on adjacent blocks and there is a parking deck near the big cathedral across Church Ave.
