Career Planning: Job Fair Prep

I attended the workshop on November 19. Recruiters from Verizon came to present their advice for job fair. Most of their advice ie. good timing, dress code, politeness, interview goals,  are things that we know at the back of our heads, but it’ helpful that they reviewed them.

a story

As a speech pathologist, I often ask patients to tell me a personal story in order to get them to open up. Here’s one man’s tale:

  ”My friend wanted a boat more than anything. His wife kept refusing, but he bought one anyway. ‘I’ll tell you what,’ he told her. ‘In the spirit of compromise, why don’t you name the boat?’ Being a good sport, she accepted. And when her husband went to the dock for his maiden voyage, this is the name he saw painted on the side: For Sale.
