After an outstanding success of Superior Job After outstanding success of our last two Job fairs in 2010 and 2011, we have planned our third Job Fair on Wednesday 18th January, 2012 at Superior University Campus, Main Raiwind Road Lahore. We believe that this Job fair will bring the talented job seekers and employers at a single platform of common interest to excel.

Last year thousands of people from all the industries of the country attended the job fair. This, indeed, was heartening and also highly supportive of our cause of providing impetus to job creation especially at the present time of economic downturn. No matter how much qualified or talented you are all type of jobs will be offered in this event.

This year we are organizing this event under the umbrella of Daily Nai Baat (an Urdu newspaper) that has been launched with a vision to provide reliable information through a credible team. It has gain remarkable popularity and circulation in a very short span of time. It is expected that Nai Baat will turn out to be a trend-setting newspaper in the print media.

We are committed to national success and proficient learning. We have a strong professional orientation with a focus on academic excellence and graduate employability to strengthen the overall capacity through interaction with top organizations of Pakistan. We are proud to announce our collaboration with Daily Nai Baat (an emerging newspaper) for Job Fair 2012 where national and international organizations will have their recruitment stalls and career counseling activity in order to attract the best talent.

I feel that this is our social responsibility to support such events for job creation, especially at the present time of economic downturn. I have no doubts that our youth is very much competent and has the ability to lead the world of nations.

8 Keys to Job Fair Success:

1. Do your research.
Take time to research participating companies prior to the job fair. After deciding which companies you most want to meet with, take some time to check out each of their websites to learn more about the company and the jobs they have available.

2. Dress professionally and create a favorable first impression.
Since first impressions are critical when searching for a job, dressing professionally for a job fair makes perfect sense. Conservative business attire is often preferred for both men and women but business casual may be appropriate for certain jobs or professions. Also, attention to detail is important so be sure to wear comfortable, neat, well-polished shoes; carry a professional briefcase; ensure your hair is clean and well groomed: your nails are neatly manicured, and go light on make-up and perfume. It is best to downplay tattoos and additional body piercings whenever possible. Dressing professionally relays the message to employers that you are a serious candidate in the job search process.

3. Be prepared and develop a plan.
When arriving at a job fair it’s wise to first study the layout of the fair and check to see if any additional employers have been added to the list. In addition to your resume, be sure to bring several pens, a notepad, and business cards to hand out. You may also carry a cheat sheet that reminds you of important information on the companies you want to meet. One job fair strategy you might want to employ is to plan on meeting with your first choice employers first and then move on to your second and third choices.

4. Bring along lots of resumes.
Be sure to bring extra resumes to the fair. You may end up handing out more than one resume to participating employers, so it’s best to maximize your efforts by bringing an ample supply of resumes to avoid running out. Make sure your resume is well prepared and looked over by at least one (preferably more) other person. You may decide to bring along different versions of your resume. Targeting your resume to specific jobs and/or employers offers an opportunity to focus on specific skills and accomplishments that’s required for certain jobs or professions. Resumes should always be printed on professional white, gray, or ecru resume paper and free of photos or fancy fonts.

5. Meet and greet employers.
Since first impressions are critical in the interviewing process, be prepared to assertively introduce yourself with confidence and enthusiasm. Maintain direct eye contact, offer a firm handshake, sport a genuine smile, and show enthusiasm - since these are all attributes employers look for in potential new hires. Be prepared to give each employer you meet a 30 – 60 second elevator speech that highlights your career objectives, strengths, interests, relevant skills and the type of job you are seeking. Be prepared to answer questions such as why you want to work for this particular company or why you feel that you would be an asset to the organization.

6. Practice and prepare questions for the interviewer.
The best way to prepare for an interview is to practice, practice, practice. Be sure to write down any vital information on the back of the employer’s business card to make it easy to follow up. Be prepared to ask each employer questions including how to arrange for a second interview.

7. Be prepared to network.
Career Fairs are all about networking. It has been estimated that between 50% and 75% of all jobs are found through networking. By networking with recruiters, other job fair participants, and professional associations and/or employment agencies participating in the fair, you can increase your personal connections and improve your chances of getting called back for a second interview.

8. Don’t forget to follow up.
Following up with recruiters is one of the most important things job fair participants can do immediately after the job fair. Sending a personalized thank you note to each recruiter identifies you as a thoughtful and serious job candidate that they will want to get to know better. By restating your interests in the company and your qualifications, you will put yourself on their radar screen when they are in the process of seeking candidates to interview for future positions that open up. You may decide to enclose another copy of your resume with your letter to ensure that the employer has your information available. Following up a thank you letter with a phone call can also increase your chances of being called back for an interview.
