Sell yourself with confidence! When you are speaking with an employer at the #chijobfair22 (presented by the Chicago Urban League), follow these three steps for the best chance to land an interview or the job:
Introduce yourself with a smile: Say, βIβd like to tell you about myself and how I can help [company name].β
Tell your story briefly: In one or two sentences, tell the employer why you are the best candidate for the role. Then listen and connect with the hiring manager.
Give a memorable goodbye: And ask for the job. See if you can set up an interview and ask for a business card.
Your elevator pitch should happen in less than 30 seconds, but the conversation could last longer. The most important thing you can do is practice before the job fair.
