Attend drop-in appointments
CSE Career Services will hold 10-minute drop-in meetings from 2-4 p.m. daily for assistance with resumes, cover letters, and career fair prep that do not require a longer appointment. Drop-ins are in person Monday-Thursday and virtually on Friday. Please check in by 3:45 p.m. at the front desk in 105 Lind Hall for in-person drop-ins or on the CSE Career Services drop-ins webpage for virtual meetings.

As these sessions are brief, ensure you have your resume ready on your computer or bring a printed copy to maximize your time.

Research employers of interest
Employers attending the CSE Career Fair will expect that you know something about what they do and may ask you why you are interested in their company. Start by reviewing the list of registered employers in Handshake. Next, make a list of employers of interest, then visit companies' websites and LinkedIn pages to learn more about them. Review the Researching Employers and Industries Guide (PDF) to learn more.
