This mock career fair is designed to help you develop confidence and get practice for the real thing. You can practice your approach and your elevator pitch, learn how to talk to recruiters, and make the most of your experience. The "employers" at this event are not real career fair employers, they are staff making this a safe-space to practice and yes, even make mistakes before the big day! 

PLEASE NOTE: If you are interested in having your LinkedIn Headshot taken, please register for the event in advance

You can drop in to Gilmour Hall 110 anytime between 1:00 PM ET to 2:30 PM ET. 

Here's what you can expect:

1. Upon arrival we will check you in to the "career fair" 

2. There will be several "employers" set up around the room

3. When it's your turn, use your pitch, listen and ask questions about the "recruitment process"

Once you are registered for the event, you will receive a confirmation email that includes resources and pre-work to help you prepare for this event (and for the real thing).  This way, you can come to the event ready to learn and to get on-the-spot feedback and support.

If you have an accommodation need for an event/planned meeting, please email careeraccess@mcmaster.ca. Should you require any materials be sent in an alternate/accessible format, please advise.
