Tips for success
- Conduct yourself professionally at all times. Remember that you are on stage even as you stand in line or move about the interview area.
- Come prepared. Bring
copies of your NeoGov application, letter of introduction, resume, and letters of recommendation as recruiters will not have access during the fair to any online materials you have previously submitted through the website.
- Develop a plan of action which gives you confidence and sets you apart from the crowd.
- Keep yourself and your materials neat and streamlined; do not carry too much.
- If the interview line seems long, move along to another school district. You can always come back later.
- Respect other people's privacy as you approach the interview table, allowing them to complete their discussion.
- Establish eye contact, present a firm handshake, introduce yourself and explain why you are interested in speaking with a recruiter.
- Be confident. Take an active part in your interview.
