Whenever attending a job fair, don't be misled by the word "fair". Even though there may be a fair-like atmosphere at the event, employers expect professionalism on your part. So always dress professionally and bring several copies of your resume.
Career fairs are different from job fairs in that the focus is mostly on learning about different careers and how to get the proper education and training for them. Sometimes jobs are available but networking and information are the main purpose.
To prepare for a successful job fair experience, read the suggestions provided in the guide Making the Most of the Job Fair.
If you are an employer interested in attending job fairs hosted by JJC, please see the Employer Job Fair Information page.
