EMPLOYER-RELATED EVENTS
Employer-related events can be a great opportunity to gather knowledge about the organization, explore what you’re interested in (and not interested in), and learn what type of candidate they are seeking. It is also a great opportunity to build connections and expand your network. Even if you are not their target group, it doesn’t hurt to ask questions to build your knowledge base and build connections with company representatives.
