Top Ten Tips for Career Fair1) Success
１．Develop a commercial．You have ３０seconds to get an employer interested in you．If you can’t，they’ll move on．Practice a ３０－second commercial to introduce yourself and your career goals．Be short and concise，but add a specific instance to grab attention．The following is how an American student “sells”herself at a career fair．
“Hello，Ms．Smith．I‘m Samantha Ward and I‘ve been interested in Omega Tron ever since I read that Business Week article about your new multimedia software program．I‘m a computer science major with an art minor，and I‘m really excited about combining these two interests．I‘ve actually developed an interactive educational program to teach children how to draw．Would you like to see a copy of the website I designed？
２．Look professional．Always remove tongue or eyebrow piercings3）（no more than one earring in each ear），and hide tattoos．Once you know the culture of the company，then you can start to add（or not）these items to your morning toilette．It’ s always better to err on the side of caution and be more conservative4） than less．
３．Bring at least ５０resumes．Cover letters are not necessary at the fair，but don’t risk running out of5） resumes．
４．Bring a bag，a notebook and a pen．The bag is to carry literature and giveaways6）．The notebook should be professional with space for safekeeping of those resumes（no crumbled copies，please．）and a pad7） for notes．Bring two pens――just in case．
５．Get enough rest．Get a good night‘s sleep so you’re rested and energized for the fair．Eat a good meal before you go to prevent tummy grumbles while you chat．

１０．Show your interest．Give a firm handshake and smile with eye contact．That’s a great first impression that shows confidence．Ask questions．Nothing is more boring than a one－sided conversation．Send a thank－you note．To make a real impression，send it soon after the fair to the companies that most piqued9） your interest．Follow up．Don’t wait for companies to call――call them first．Set up informational interviews or a company tour．
在人才招聘會上獲得成功的１０項技巧
１．做商業(yè)廣告。你有３０秒種的時間讓某位雇主對你感興趣。如果你不能，他們會另尋他人。準備一個３０秒鐘的廣告介紹你自己和你的事業(yè)目標。簡潔明了，但要有具體的例子抓住對方的注意力。以下例子是一位美國學生如何在人才招聘會上“推銷”自己。
“您好，
２．看上去具有職業(yè)形象。把舌環(huán)或眉環(huán)拿掉（每只耳朵上只戴一個耳環(huán)），遮蓋住紋身。一旦你清楚了某公司的文化后，你才可以在早晨化妝時增加（或不增加）這些裝飾。因謹慎出岔兒總比因大膽出岔兒好，保守總比過于開放穩(wěn)妥。
３．帶上至少５０份個人簡歷。首頁介紹在招聘會上并非必備，但也不能冒缺少簡歷的危險。
４．攜帶一個書包，一個筆記本和一支筆。書包用來裝文獻和贈品。筆記本應該是辦公用的，有足夠的地方妥善保存你的個人簡歷（請不要遞上皺巴巴的簡歷。），還有一個便箋簿。帶兩支筆以備萬一。
５．休息好。頭天晚上睡好覺讓你自己得到充分休息，以便精力充沛地赴人才招聘會。去之前還要吃好飯，以免與雇主交談時你的肚子餓得咕咕叫。
６．做好應聘準備。上網(wǎng)搜尋參加招聘會的那些公司的資料，以便熟悉它們，知道它們在尋找怎樣的雇員。
７．提前到達。人才招聘會往往會吸引數(shù)以百計，乃至千計、萬計的人前往。爭取早到，搶得一份目錄單，計劃你的主攻目標。
８．“反其道而行之。”許多人陷入前門擁擠慌亂的人群中難以脫身。你不妨徑直走向后門，那里有代表們在等候來訪者的出現(xiàn)。
９．拿宣傳品和商務名片。只拿那些你感興趣的公司的宣傳品，因為你會閱讀它們，否則背著一書包各公司的宣傳品走來走去會讓你胳臂酸痛。不要忘記拿商務名片，因為日后你可以跟招聘人士聯(lián)系，在名片背面記下一些你們交談的內容。
１０．表達你的興趣。握手要有力，直視對方帶以微笑。這是表現(xiàn)信心極好的第一印象。要問問題。沒有什么比一方侃侃而談，一方沉默無語的交談更沒意思了。會后寄份感謝卡。若想真給人家留下印象，招聘會后馬上將感謝卡寄給那些激起你興趣的公司。主動做后續(xù)工作，不要等著公司給你打電話---先給他們打，商定情況介紹或參觀公司等事宜。
