Employers: Scheduling your next-day interviews
• Fair day is Tuesday
• Interview day is Wednesday
• Interviews are scheduled during the fair and/or Tues evening
• Weather contingency plan
SCHEDULING INTERVIEWS: |
||
• |
All scheduling will be done by you on Tuesday, the fair date, using the Interview Sign-up Form we provide you at check-in. |
|
• |
You may schedule students as you meet them during the fair AND/OR contact students after the fair closes. Students will be admitted to interviews based on the Interview Sign-up Form schedule you turn in, so it must be complete and accurate. |
|
• |
One schedule form = one interview table. No more than two interviewers per interview schedule/table. |
|
• |
Interview start times: 8:30 a.m. and at every 1/2 hour interval through 4:30 p.m., on Wednesday. |
|
• |
Start times cannot be changed; this enables the least disruption with many interviews occurring simultaneously. |
|
• |
Interview length: 25 minutes (gives 5-minute buffer time for exit and entry of students between interviews). |
|
• |
Lunch / breaks: Before scheduling students, block your lunch time according to the seating time on your lunch ticket. Schedule other breaks as you wish. |
|
• |
5:00 p.m. end time essential: At 5:15 p.m., Wednesday, crews will begin to dismantle booths and tables. All your materials must be removed from the area by that time. |
|
INTERVIEW LOCATIONS / WHAT TO DO, GIVE AND TELL STUDENTS |

Interview location will NOT be the same as fair booth location. |

FOR INTERVIEWS IN FAIR VENUE: |
|
|
• |
For interviews scheduled in person during the fair, give completed interview pass to the student. Students must present passes to staff to gain entry to interviews. |
|
• |
For interviews scheduled after the fair (by phone/e-mail), give instructions to students to come to Student Interview Check-in to obtain passes. Students should arrive 30 minutes prior to an 8:30 interview, and at least 15 minutes early otherwise. |
|
|
Why you must turn in the completed schedule form: |
• |
FOR INTERVIEWS NOT IN FAIR VENUE, PASSES ARE NOT PROVIDED. |
