Follow up after the Career Fair

By Career Placement
Posted 10/14/2009 8:30 AM

Another year, another Career Fair has gone by.  We hope you had the chance to meet some company representatives on Friday.

 

If you have not already done so, you should definitely send a follow up "thank you" e-mail to the recruiters you spoke with.  If you did not get their business card, check with the Career Placement Office for contact information. 

 

In the note, be sure to refer back to something you discussed with the recruiter so they remember you out of the 50+ people they met.  You may have discussed your internship with _____, your experience as the president of _____ student org, you work on the _____ senior design project, or something else unique.  This will help you stand out in their memory.

 

More information about Thank You e-mails and notes can be found on pages 26-27 of our online career guide:
