Work On It Wednesday: Career Fair Frequently Asked Questions
By: Emily Young MA ‘16
Career fair networking is different than an interview; it’s more like speed dating. Instead of a half an hour or hour for a typical interview, you have two minutes to break the ice and determine if you are interested in the company and if the company recruiter is interested in you.
