After the Fair: The Next Step

Thank You Notes: After the Career Fair, write a thank you note and mail it the next day to the address on the recruiter's business card. In the letter, thank the recruiter for his/her time and restate your interest and qualifications for the position. It's also a good idea to again say you are interested in moving the conversation forward (Second Interview) and then follow up with a phone call to see if a time can be arranged. It is a good idea to enclose another resume. Here is a sample thank you letter to a career fair recruiter.

Interview Preparation: Be prepared to hear from prospective employers who are interested in scheduling an interview with you after the Career Fair. Mock interviews are available (by appointment) for students who wish to practice their interviewing skills. The Career Development website has detailed information about interviewing.
