Take at least 20 copies of your updated resume to give to interested employers. You may want to prepare more than one version, depending on your goals.
Do Your Homework
Review the list of employers on the homepage of BroncoLink. Research your target organizations so you can ask focused and specific questions. This impresses employers because it shows a genuine interest.
Develop a 30-second introduction (Elevator speech) of who you are and what you are interested in. Be enthusiastic and show your strengths, skills, experience, and interest. Practice your firm handshake and smile.
Practice Your Answers
Be prepared to briefly answer questions from employers regarding your career goals.
Dress Appropriately
Remember, first impressions count! Business casual is appropriate for most employers, although some, for example consulting firms, expect more formal dress. The business casual look ranges from slacks or skirts to khakis. It includes a collared shirt and trousers, a shirt or sweater with a skirt, or coordinated separates. Low-heeled shoes and loafers are acceptable business casual footwear.
