Georgia Tech Fall Career Fair

The fall Career Fair will be held at the Campus Recreation Center Sept. 14–15 from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. both days.

Students are required to wear business formal attire to enter the fair. Heels are permitted. Students do not need to register, but need to bring their BuzzCard or GTID number to enter.
What to bring:
  1. Notebook and Pen/Pencil: With over 200 companies in attendance each day, you may need to take notes. 
  2. Several copies of your resume: Copy machines will not be available for students in the CRC Make sure to bring enough copies of your resume to leave with recruiters.
  3. Smartphone: The Georgia Tech Career Fair App lets students see company locations at the fair, a floor plan, event details, announcements, and more. The app is available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
  4. BuzzCard: You will need this to gain entry to the fair. If you no longer have a buzzcard, your GTID number will suffice.

Career Fair Checklist: What to Do Before and After
Clean up your resume, get your clothes ready, and get your head in the game.

The Georgia Tech Fall Career Fair is quickly approaching Sept. 14–15. The best way to avoid common Career Fair mistakes and land a job or internship offer is preparation.

Before the Career Fair:

1. Dig up your resume from spring semester and add your summer activities. Did you complete an internship, do research, or hold a leadership position? Be sure your resume is up-to-date and then bring it to the Center for Career Discovery and Development’s Fall Resume Blitz. Just in time for the Career Fair, the Resume Blitz will be held Sept. 9, 10, and 11 in the Bill Moore Student Success Center from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Stop by with a paper copy of your resume and get advice from many of the same employers that are recruiting on campus this fall.
2. First impressions matter at career fairs. That’s why Tech’s Campus Closet lends professional attire to students for career-related events. Students must wear business professional attire to the fall Career Fair, but if you don’t have a suit, don’t let that hinder your job search. You can easily borrow a variety of professional attire from Campus Closet by registering atwww.gtcampuscloset.com.
3. The Student Alumni Association (SAA) leverages alumni resources to assist students with their job searches. The SAA Get Ready for the Real World (GRRW) committee is dedicated to preparing students for life after Tech. An upcoming webinar hosted by SAA, Be Career Fair Ready, will take place Sept. 8 from 6 to 7 p.m. Register to attend the webinar here. If you aren’t able to attend this event, then check out these recorded GRRW events.
4. Lastly, download the Georgia Tech Career Fair App from the Apple Store or Google Play Store to have the most updated information about company locations, floor plan, event details, and announcements before and during the event.
After the Career Fair:

Aside from the usual follow-ups such as applying online and sending thank you notes to recruiters, here are a few more things you can to do to keep your job search alive after the fall Career Fair.
1. Although the fall Career Fair is the largest of the year, there are plenty of other career fairs around campus this fall. Some of these smaller career fairs are major-specific, which makes it easier to find employers in your field. Check here for a complete list of career fairs this semester.
2. Company information sessions are another way to get one-on-one time with recruiters. If career fairs seem overwhelming, then information sessions are a great place to start your job search. Check www.career.gatech.edu throughout the semester to see if new information sessions have been added. The current schedule can be viewed here.

On September 9th from 2pm to 3pm we will hold our third Ivan Allen College Twitter chat between students and alumni. The Chat will coincide with the Georgia Tech Career Fair; thus the topic is "How to Network at a Career Fair."

As a reminder, our Twitter chats began in the spring through the Alumni Relations subcommittee of the CLASS taskforce between C2D2 and Ivan Allen. Stephanie Jackson, Amy D'Unger, Meredith Schnepp, Jade Hill, and I have continued development on this project. Each Twitter chat brings together no more than four alums at a time to answer both moderated and student questions for one hour through social media.

We hope you will consider tuning in to the Twitter Chat. Moderated questions will be tweeted by Stephanie Jackson through the @GTliberalarts twitter account, and all tweets will use the hashtag #IACcareerchat.
