Getting there

How to prepare

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

Before the fair

  • Research 5 Star Security Services, Alloy Concepts Inc and Armour Transport 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.
  • Bring a resume in French or in both languages, and practise your introduction in French.
  • Practise a 30-second introduction: who you are, what you do well and the kind of role you want next.
  • Public service roles often use their own application portals. Note the job postings or programs you are interested in before the fair.
  • 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 10:45 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.

What to bring

  • Printed copies of your resume, more than you expect to need (10 to 20 for a large fair).
  • Copies of your licences, tickets and certifications.
  • A charged phone with your LinkedIn profile or portfolio ready to show.
  • Resumes in French, or in both English and French.
  • A pen and a small notebook, or notes on your phone, to record names and next steps.

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.
  • Check the careers pages of 5 Star Security Services, Alloy Concepts Inc and Armour Transport and the other employers you met for roles posted after the fair.
