I always say that university career fairs are golden opportunities to meet employers face-to-face, learn more about potential opportunities, make a memorable impression, and follow-up to generate interviews. And now there is some data to substantiate that. September is when many employers will kick off their search for great interns and soon-to-be post graduation new hires. Without a doubt, students who jump into the search with both feet in September prepared to engage with employers proactively, confidently and effectively are the students who are most likely to secure great positions (and do so faster and with greater ease) when compared with peers who either go in unprepared or who wait until second semester is well underway. Here’s what I recommend: 1. Update your resume to reflect your accomplishments achieved and skills gained through summer employment. No matter what work you did this summer, you gained valuable skills that will enhance your ability to help a future employer to solve challenges, whether it’s learning a new technical skill or persevering through a challenge to get the job done. Go beyond listing tasks to include how you benefited your employer. 2. After you identify the types of roles you’re looking for, think about how you can quickly convey to an employer why they should take the time to get to know more about you, and then turn your introduction into a brief conversation so you can get insights in the company and make yourself memorable (in a good way 😄) 3. Make a plan for how to “attack” the fair. Pick the top 5-10 employers you are most interested in meeting, and research them for a nugget or two you can share about what interests you in the company so they can see you have done your homework and that you’re interested in them, not just any company. Then ask the employer a question to get a conversation going. 4. GET CONTACT INFORMATION AND SEND A FOLLOW-UP NOTE!! Following up after the fair is the critical difference between a nice interaction and one that turns into an interview. 5. Be prepared for an interview. Getting interviews is half the battle and they’re not always easy to get. When you go to a career fair properly prepared and then follow-up with a note and job application, you raise your chances of getting an interview considerably. And that’s great!! But interview invitations can follow very quickly so you want to be interview ready so you can make the most of it! Don’t wait until you have an interview to prepare for the interview. 80% of interview preparation for any one job is the same because you are who you are and you’ve done what you’ve done. It’s only that last 20% that needs to be tailored for a specific employer and role. If you’re ready to interview before you have one, you will go into your interviews much more prepared, confident, and relaxed — and it will show in your performance!! So get out there and put your best foot forward!! Let me know if I can help. I’m rooting for you!

As the Massachusetts Water Works Association Operator Committee Chair, I am excited to join my fellow committee members as well as teaming up with the folks from the PR and Membership Committees to help raise awareness about the drinking water industry through education and outreach initiatives – with a heavy focus on operations. It is essential to highlight the critical role that professionals in the drinking water industry play in protecting public health and the environment. With the impending wave of retirements in the industry, the time is now to raise awareness and attract new talent to ensure the sustainability and success of the drinking water sector for future generations. By showcasing the industry's importance, rewards, and accessibility (for you high schooler parents read: low cost of entry!), we hope to inspire individuals – whether young high school students like my audience at Whittier Regional Vocational Technical High School, or adults who may be looking to start or change their own career paths – that may not have previously considered a career in the drinking water industry – mostly because they didn’t know it existed! By participating in career fairs and sharing our knowledge and passion for the industry, we can hopefully inspire the next generation of professionals to pursue careers in the water industry. So let's continue to promote the importance of clean, safe, and accessible drinking water and encourage folks to explore the diverse and fulfilling career options available in the drinking water industry.   #DrinkingWaterIndustry #CareerFairs #CleanWater #CareerOpportunities #InspireTheNextGeneration

Hey! Green Skills Career people... Thinking about future careers can be tough and stressful to young people. We are frequently advised that to be successful in our careers, we must follow a certain path; however, we know this is not the case. There are many twists and turns in life, and we frequently find ourselves in an interesting career that we never expected or even knew existed. Unlike a traditional careers fair, we hope that this event will dispel what a Green Skills profession entails by showcasing the wide range of jobs available that are related to sustainability. We also want to highlight the irregular routes you can take to reach such careers. This is where YOU come in!! We invite you to come down to the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson School, not only to represent your job, but also to represent yourself, so that students can ask you questions about how you got to where you are. We are looking for delegates from a wide range of diverse backgrounds with a focus on green skills careers. What you will be doing on the day You will each have your own 'station', a medium size table, whith a board explaining the journey you have been on to get to your green skills career. Each group of students will spend some time at your station (~5 minutes) where you can explain who you are and the journey you've been on. Full marks if you can provide a more immersive experience or a task for the students that lasts a few minuts, to get them engaged on your sustainability topic of choice. Any questions or not sure what you can do, just ask us! Preparation Once you sign up to the event we will send through a short 2-3 minute questionnaire for you to fill in. We will ask you questions about your current role and the journey you've been on to get there! This will then be presented to the students on the day in the way of an A3 board that sits at your station. We are prepared to accept more than one delegate from a company if those additional delegates offer distinct perspectives on their experience compared to their colleagues.
