Getting there

How to prepare

A short plan for this job fair, based on its format, audience and details.

Before the fair

  • Check the official page for the list of employers attending, then pick 3 to 5 you most want to meet.
  • Prepare for on-site interviews: review common questions and have a short example ready for each of your key skills.
  • Practise a 30-second introduction: who you are, what you do well and the kind of role you want next.
  • Check how to get to The Salvation Army Community Resource Centre, where to park and how long the trip takes, so you arrive calm.
  • 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 2:45 p.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.
  • Dress as you would for an interview. Some employers may interview you on the spot.
  • After each conversation, write down the person's name, the role you discussed and what to follow up on.
  • Ask about orientation, shift patterns and licensing support. Healthcare employers expect these questions.

What to bring

  • Copies of your resume From the organizer
  • Copies of your licences, tickets and certifications.
  • A list of references with their contact details, in case you are interviewed on site.
  • A charged phone with your LinkedIn profile or portfolio ready to show.
  • A pen and a small notebook, or notes on your phone, to record names and next steps.
  • A folder or bag to keep resumes flat and hold what employers hand you.

After the fair

  • Send a short thank-you email within 24 hours to each person you spoke with, and mention something from your conversation.
  • Apply online to the roles employers pointed you to, and mention that you met them at the fair.
  • Connect on LinkedIn with a short note reminding them where you met.
