Get Ready for a Job Fair–Put resumes a pen and note paper in an attractive business portfolio. Dress appropriately and use a breath mint.  Smile, use a firm handshake and look the interviewer in the eye.  Collect business cards so you can follow-up with a letter.  Be ready to learn from other job seekers who use slick opening lines during an interview.  Deliver your information quickly by creating a sound bite that states your skills and the type of work that interests you.  Have a few questions ready in case you have additional time: Ask how the company is organized and how your skills might be utilized within the organization.  Ask a question about a new product or service to  show you know something about the company.   Develop a follow-up letter that reiterates your sound bite and add any information you learned from the interviewer.  Stay positive despite the difficulties your facing.  No one wants to hire someone with issues.  Go get the job.
