For students
What to do, and what runs out
| Runs out | What to do |
|---|---|
| Mock interviews | Twenty-two slots with real recruiters. Book one in the mini app. |
| CV clinic | Bring a printed CV. First come, first served. |
| Case challenge | Register a team in advance. The final is on the main stage. |
If you are a first-year
You do not need a CV yet. Walk the track for your major, ask three employers what they look for in a second-year, and find the alumni from your own degree. That is the afternoon well spent.
Nine zones
A fest, not a fair
A fair is a hall of tables and a queue to hand over a CV. A fest is nine zones, so you spend the afternoon doing things.
