3. Attend a career fair. Career fairs are typically organized by colleges and universities to provide students with opportunities to interact with area businesses and organizations. Fairs are often advertised by your institution’s career services center or through the offices that coordinate student activities. If your institution has no information about career fairs, contact the career services centers of neighboring institutions to inquire about any upcoming fairs they are familiar with. Many students believe that if they are not currently seeking a job, that they have nothing to gain from attending a career fair.

But by attending you will learn about a variety of opportunities in your area that you may not have even known existed?
