How to prepare
A short plan for this career fair, based on its format, audience and details.
Before the fair
- Research Alzheimer Society of Windsor and Essex County, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Windsor Essex and Canada Border Services Agency before you go: what they do, which roles are open and one recent piece of news.
- Mark the employers on the list that hire for the roles you want. That is your route for the day.
- Know your co-op or internship dates and your graduation date. Employers will ask.
- Practise a 30-second introduction: who you are, what you do well and the kind of role you want next.
- Update your resume so the top third shows the roles and skills you want to talk about at this fair.
At the fair
- Arrive by 10:15 a.m., about 15 minutes before the start, when lines are short and employers are fresh.
- Open with your 30-second introduction, then ask what the team is hiring for right now.
- After each conversation, write down the person's name, the role you discussed and what to follow up on.
- Ask about new-graduate programs, co-op terms and when applications open. Many close months before the start date.
What to bring

- Dress code: Business casual attire is recommended. From the organizer

- A folder or bag to keep resumes flat and hold what employers hand you.
After the fair
