The Career Planning and Placement Office is excited to invite you to the Winter 2023 Virtual Business Career Fair. Virtual career fairs are online 'events' that allow employers and students to meet in virtual environments such as through voice calls or video chat rooms. We will be using Handshake for the virtual fair. This is a great opportunity for students to introduce themselves professionally and learn more about business. To have a successful networking experience, students should PREPARE, PREPARE, PREPARE and FOLLOW UP with employers. Below are some helpful tips for a successful experience:

• Do your homework!  Research the list of expected employers on Handshake
• Make sure to check Big Interview  (web-based mock interview program) to practice and improve your interviewing skills
• Have your resume reviewed by an advisor in Career Planning and Placement (CPP)
• Prepare and Practice your Elevator Pitch (30 second introduction to employers)
