Share your resume in advance
Sign up for the online Spring Career Fair Resume Book in Handshake to allow employers to learn about what you have to offer prior to the fair. Participation in the resume book could result in an employer reaching out to you prior to the fair to encourage you to visit with them or could get you on a short list of candidates they would like to interview.
Change your Handshake privacy settings to “community” or “employers” and set your profile to “public” or “visible” to allow employers to view your digital resume/Handshake profile.
