Hi All,
for Fair veterans, how important do you think the arranged "Social" is on the first night? Do the recruiters attend this? Does it affect who they ask to interview? I want to do everything possible to maximize my chances. Any opinions on this one?
The "Social" Aspect of the Fairs
Although I have never attended one myself, I have heard near-cinematic fair experiences from colleagues, who have been hired over conversations in elevators and washrooms (seriously), pretty unusual places to have a professional interview. So, "Social" sounds more aesthetic than those I have mentioned earlier.
Just don't get nervous and start gulping alcoholic drinks all evening. I suggest limiting yourself to just one (even if you think you can handle more) so you're sure to stay clear-headed and lucid.
Also, keep in mind that at any fair, you are always "on," as evidenced by the hirings in elevators and washrooms. Stay neatly dressed, smile, and be friendly and polite to everyone. Lay off the partying for the duration so you're not seen staggering through the lobby or passing out in the elevators.
