Do’s and Don’ts at a Career Fair
• Do have a specific strategy for maximizing your time at the event. And don't bother spending time with recruiters from companies that do not interest you.
• Do attempt to get the list of attending companies before the career fair.
• Don't eliminate companies because they are recruiting for positions outside your field; take the time to network with the recruiter and get the name of a hiring manager for your particular career field.
• Do attempt to research basic information about each company you hope to interview with at the job fair. A common career fair question from recruiters is, "Why do you want to work for our company?”
• Don't just drop your resume on the recruiter's table and walk off.
Things to have ready

Have elevator pitches ready!
Have more resumes than you plan to give out.
Arrive early to your interview.
Do your research and prepare the day before for your interview.
