American job fair: does it make sense to go to the job fair

My seeking nature yielded to the temptation to attend the event. A completely new kind of activity for me. If you believe an advertising flyer, then at this fair everything should have been very serious: to come strictly dressed, like 10, carefully study all the companies represented at the fair in advance, prepare a good speech to sell yourself to personnel managers.

Yes, the advertisement said that it would be experts in hiring new employees who would be talking to you at the fair. In general, the description - just a great chance to find a job.

What did I really find at a California college fair?

A number of tents, where only employees of the company worked, who do not have a direct relationship to hiring. Their task is to tell everyone about the company, to give a piece of candy, a pen, a lipstick, well, or whatever it was prepared for, to distribute for promotional purposes.

And what about the students? Many have no idea what vacancies are presented at the fair and what companies do. It is even a shame that reality is so different from reality.

I studied all those who were at the fair in advance, and only one company approached me. They are engaged in 3-print. It's funny that they are looking for a partner to work with a computer for half a day, at least that’s what their relama says. In fact, they are looking for a lot of people, for a full day, and for the computer, and in the printers to dig and everything else. And the installer, who has been working for 20 for years, talks to anyone who has nothing to do with hiring or even working with a computer.

After all this, it remained a huge mystery for me, for which these lists of vacancies and all sorts of recommendations on preparation for the event are generally needed.

How can you find your first job in the USA without spending time going to fairs?

This is about work without special qualifications, because, as my husband’s experience has shown, it takes about a month to find a job as a programmer in 30 with an average state wage, and from an effort put a resume on a working website. Those who have a profession - an abstraction in its pure form, as, for example, I, useful ingenuity and strong nerves.

Today I have two work experience:

  1. Baking bread in a bakery shop and telling people about them, answering questions from the series “how do these seeds differ from these”, “how many grams of sugar are in this pie” and “where to get a gluten-free cake if you don’t have it” - in Overall, good language practice.
  2. To paint pictures of clients of doctors, so that when they see a new body or a part of it, people are more eager to get involved in operations / procedures - it is well developed fine motor skills and artistry, but will cease to be necessary in 5 in years.

To get to the store, you need to know which one is closest to home, and be ready to work on any schedule, at least for the first time. For photos you need to be able to use a computer. No educational documents or other debris is required. Only SSN, ID and demonstration of the skill to perform certain actions at a level sufficient for the employer. However, the programmers also do not need any papers - my husband graduated only from high school, which has not prevented him from using 15 for years to be popular with employers not only in the US, but throughout the world. Simply put, if you can spit on a piece of paper, you spit on it.

What is the secret of success in finding a job? Send resumes with complete confidence in success if work requires brain involvement. And if you want to work in a store or in a similar place, then after filling in the application form on the store’s website, go to this store and you will most likely be taken there. The main shop condition is a free schedule and, preferably, 1 is only a day off per week or no weekend at all. And, as I noted, it is better to keep all your professors' and bachelor's degrees with you if you are going to get a job in a bakery or cut onions for money. Such is the story.

I almost forgot about the language. You still have to connect a few words, otherwise how to understand what you need to do while working or what is written in the advertisement about hiring?
