Registration for the Career Exploration Business Series Job Fair is now open to current students and alumni. To register, you must log in to Handshake, so be sure to create a free account if you don't already have one.

We recommend registering in advance, as it will speed up your sign-in process on the day of the Fair, but it is not required. Walk-ins are also accepted. For more information, contact Carolyn Redding at reddingc@easternflorida.edu or 321-433-7324.

Job Fair Preparation Tips

Here are some best practices to help you prepare for a successful job fair:

  1. Create or update your resume. Upkey is an excellent resource that can help you to prepare a winning resume, build your professional brand, and connect with top companies. If you'd like additional assistance, you can also schedule a resume review appointment through the EFSC Career Center.

  2. Complete your Handshake profile—and be sure to upload your newly updated resume.

  3. Prepare for your in-person interviews by reviewing the job search videos in our free Career Spots Video Player. You can also get ready for interviews and get great tips on researching employers ahead of time by watching our Land That Job workshop on the EFSC YouTube Channel — and also check our Workshops page for other upcoming events to help you prepare.

  4. On the day of a job fair, dress to impress! We also recommend bringing several printed copies of your resume to distribute as you network with potential employers.
