A little preparation goes a long way! Here are some quick tips to make the most of your visit:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

1. Do your homework<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

Check out which companies will be there and learn what they do. Decide which ones you\u2019d like to talk to and prepare a few questions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

2. Dress appropriately<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

If you\u2019re looking for a concrete opportunity (internship, thesis, or job), a business outfit is a good choice. First impressions matter!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

3. Be curious and polite<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

Company representatives appreciate genuine interest. Don\u2019t just collect free giveaways \u2014 talk about your studies, your interests, and what you\u2019re looking for.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

4. Time it right<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

Come early in the day if possible. Conversations are usually easier when the fair isn\u2019t too crowded.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

5. Follow up<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

If you receive a business card or contact info, use it! A short follow-up message can make you stand out.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
