A couple of tips to get a head at a Careers Fair:
Tip 1 – Plan your visit and give yourself enough time to research the companies that are attending.
Tip 2 – Pick your top 8-12 companies and do some research. For example: what do they do? What areas of the companies suit you? What degrees do they recruit from?
Tip 3 – Dress code: Smart causal. Dress to impress as first impressions is everything. You never know the recruiter might remember you.
Tip 4 – Ask Questions!
Tip 5 – KNOW YOURSELF
What degree modules are you studying linking to the job your applying for?
What skills do I have?
What experiences have I done?
The recruiter might as you some questions on the spot.

Following a successful Freshers Fair and Welcome Talk, so far we have received a whopping 300 sign ups and 75 society members. Not bad for the newbies 🙂 Overwhelmed with the support and positive feedback from Aston students in such a short space of time, it was amazing to hear that most had already heard about AWB! The power of social networking enabled our message to find the right ears.
Its been a busy week – every committee member focused and determined. To go that extra mile, we also planned, filmed and edited a promotional video in just 3 days (with much appreciated assistance from a fellow student ). Although we cringe every time we watch it, we wanted to share with you what the society is about and why you should join.
Enjoy 🙂
