Now is the time to use resume kits and books and your placement office. You'll hove only a few minutes to introduce yourself, show you know what the company is about, and spark the recruiter's interest in you for a future, more formal interview. Know what your skills are and be prepared to present them with examples if need be. Be polite at all times. The person you meet in the parking lot, elevator, hallway, or restroom may be a recruiter you'll see later that day.
Recruiters see candidates as possible future representatives of their organizations.
Respect other candidates' privacy when approaching the recruiter's table. Do this while you're in line for the next recruiter, or sit away from the crowd to jot down your notes. Either way, take time to regroup and have your thoughts in order for the next recruiter. Most recruiters are not authorized to hire on the spot. This does not mean that companies are not hiring.
