The Career Fair wraps up a weeklong Spring 2022 Career Week at MCCC. The week kicks off with a “Lunchtime Live” on the @careerservicesmc3 Instagram account, focusing on how to stand out in an interview.

“We want to prepare students for one-on-one time with an employer at a career fair. That could be an applicant’s interview in today’s world,” said Mundy. “You need to make a lasting and strong first impression.”

On April 12, the Career and Alumni Engagement team will host an online career workshop “Career Fair Prep, Dress 4 Success” Tuesday, April 12, from noon to 1 p.m.

“The focus will be how to prepare for the fair, what questions to ask, combating nerves and the elevator pitch,” said Mundy.

Then on Wednesday, April 13, the Career and Alumni Engagement team will host the Professional Dress Fashion Show watch party from noon to 2 p.m. in the Advanced Technology Center atrium.

“Join us for fun and fashion, as we check out professional dress styles,” said Mundy. “If you have questions about what to wear, it’s a fun way to show professional dress and professional engagement. We’re looking forward to it. It’s not going to be a long evening event. It’s a couple of hours in the afternoon to maximize student engagement. We know it will be an awesome time for students and alumni to work together.”
