FAQs

What can/can't I bring to the event?

Attendees are recommended to dress business casual and bring some paper and a pen to take notes. People should feel welcome to bring business cards but we would ask you NOT to bring resumes. This is not a job fair, so you should not come expecting to hand out your resume, land an interview, or monopolize the time of a representative in an effort to secure a job interview. Representatives are there to provide information only.
