Instructions to Attend Open Fair

Employer Interview Options:
School districts who register to attend Education Expo have the option of pre-scheduling interviews or setting up all interviews on the day of the event during the Open Fair. Many school districts choose to arrange their own schedule on the day of the event and even those who desire all prescheduled interviews may not have all interview slots taken. At the Open Fair you are welcome to approach any school district - regardless of whether or not they are seeking your licensure area. It is at the sole discretion of the interviewer as to whether or not you are granted an interview on the day of the fair.

Prior to Education Expo:
E-mail the contact person for your school's career services office to inform them that you plan to attend the job fair. Include your name, licensure area, and graduation/program completion date. That way you will have a nametag waiting for you and any updates about Ed Expo can be sent to you.

Investigate the Participants coming to Education Expo and make a list of those you would like to speak to during the Open Fair.

Review the Job Fair Tips and Interview Tips, as well as the Directions, Parking and Lunch Accommodations information to ensure you are properly prepared to attend the event.

On the Day of the Fair:
Arrive early to be able to register and get familiar with the layout of the fair, so that at 8:30 a.m. you are ready to start talking with employers.

Once the Open Fair period is over, you will not be able to speak with employers unless you have a scheduled interview.

Questions:
Please direct any questions you have to the contact person for your school's career services office.
