Who’s Coming to Expo?With over 100 organizations, the Expo list can be overwhelming to navigate. Here are some tips:

5

Tip 1To make it more manageable start by searching the list by “Day” and then “Type of Position” (full-time or internship).

Tip 2Don’t miss out on great opportunities! Check out the sample job description(s). The organization description tells you what they do; the job description tells you what they’re looking for: the connection is not always obvious.

Tip 3Take notes and mark your favorites on the Career Fair Plus app for easy access at Expo.

Tip 4Connect the job description to your own story: your experiences, interests, skills (the things you’re good at). This will give you specific examples to use when speaking with Expo recruiters.

Tip 5Use the filters to review the list by location, degree level and more.

Questions? Visit the Career Center website (careercenter.umich.edu). See you there!

Search for University of Michigan Career Fair Plus on the App Store and Google Play Store.
