How do you maximize your job fair experience? Here are 3 quick tips: 1. Do the research before you show up. Know what the company does, know what jobs they are hiring for, prepare your relevant questions and elevator pitch. 2. Target your resume(s). Do not show up with a "catch-all" resume. You will catch nothing. Have that 1-2 pager that encompasses what you do based on what your target is. For example, a supply chain manager resume for someone looking for supply chain roles. 3. Don't assume you will receive a job offer or interview because you engaged with an employer. Companies have their own processes, they may require you to apply online or interview at a later time. Do network and get contact information! What tips would you recommend for those attending a job fair in the future?

Are job fairs still relevant in 2025? I believe they are. When I organized the Macher Job Fair, I saw how impactful these events can be. Employers connected directly with potential hires, bypassing the usual barriers of resumes and applications, while job seekers had the chance to shine and make meaningful connections. It’s about more than just hiring—it’s about creating opportunities, fostering growth, and building relationships. For employers: 💼 Meet candidates face-to-face, saving time. 🌟 Showcase company culture and values. 📣 Gain visibility through event promotions. For job seekers: 🤝 Let personality shine beyond a resume. 🛠️ Access career coaching and development tools. 🎯 Practice interview skills in a real setting. The more participants, the greater the value for everyone. This is why I can’t help but mention that the Macher Job Fair is happening this May! Interested in sponsorship opportunities?
