Getting the most out of the fair

First impressions do count.

Dress smartly (but you don’t need to wear a suit).

Treat the fair as a first stage interview; it might turn out to be just that especially as the recruiters will remember those people who made an extra effort.

Bring a pen and paper to make notes after each discussion, including the names of anyone you speak to.

Keep your mobile on silent, or better still switch it off when you are talking to an employer.

Engage with the employers; don’t just pick up brochures and freebies.

Be professional and think about how you want to start the conversation. How will you introduce yourself? What questions will you ask?

Be confident about what you can offer. Think about how your degree, any work experience and your range of skills – how might these be useful for that company?

If you are interested in a particular aspect of their work tell them. You’ll be able to get some inside knowledge that could be useful in your application or interview.

Make sure you’ve got a copy of your CV ready so you’re not digging around in the bottom of your bag

Make sure you get along to one or some of the workshops.

After the fair

Go through your notes.

Read through the company literature.

Email any contacts that you made and thank them for their time – do this within 24 hours.

Then start applying!

And most of all – have a great day and GOOD LUCK!

Teach First

Stand No 73

http://graduates.teachfirst.org.uk

Organisation profile In the UK, the link between income and success at school is stronger than almost anywhere in the developed world. We can change this. Poor education doesn’t just result in poor grades. The impact of inadequate education can last a lifetime – and affect the lives of the generation that follows. In the UK, people living in the poorest neighbourhoods will, on average, die seven years earlier, having lived lives with fewer opportunities and less choice. Some children begin their life journey at a disadvantage.

Is it fair that education should consolidate that disadvantage and make it permanent? We don't think so. And we're doing something about it.

Teach First is based on a simple premise: schools and the students within them can be powerfully and positively influenced by the introduction of inspirational, energetic, highly motivated leaders – people like you. We take outstanding graduates and help them to evolve into dynamic leaders and role models who care deeply about their students, who believe their students, can succeed in learning and in life, and who are determined to make that success a reality. Your Teach First journey begins with a unique two-year Leadership Development Programme. This personalised programme of training opportunities, supportive coaching and work experience focuses on your ability to influence the achievements and aspirations of pupils and their access to opportunities, both in education and beyond. Sometimes that means raising their academic achievements, getting better grades and more GCSEs; sometimes it means inspiring them to apply and then succeed in getting into university; and sometimes it simply means giving them the confidence and belief to be themselves. Teach First is about helping young people to overcome the disadvantages that limit their options, and helping them to fulfil their potential.

Teach First is also about enhancing your career prospects and leadership capabilities. We want you to use your Teach First experience to positively impact society – either in education, in business or in any other role you take on. Whatever your long-term ambitions, Teach First will help you to stand out. Over 80 high-profile businesses from all sectors recognise Teach First's ability to effect change and develop leaders for the future. They support our vision and they value the calibre of the people who complete our Leadership Development Programme. Put simply, they know that graduates who can engage, stimulate and inspire in the classroom can handle pretty much any situation in any organisation.
