These conversations tend to have a more serious tone. Look at body language. If a recruiter is upbeat and smiling this may mean you're in for a more relaxed, conversational style of interviewing. Once you've scoped out the kind of person you're about to face, mentally prepare for the kind of interview or conversation that you're about to have. Watching the women in line ahead of you will give you some idea of what to expect.
Some recruiters conduct short, sweet and simple interviews designed solely to screen candidates.
It's a couple minutes long, allowing them to form an instant impression of you before deciding whether or not to call you for the next step. If you only have a few quick minutes of a recruiter's attention, it's critical to point out the key factors in your background that make you qualified for the position. Briefly and succinctly explain how you meet their needs. Be prepared to answer questions that relate to your field of interest, not just your particular background and experience . Regardless of how long that conversation lasts, make sure to have your schtick down cold before attending this or any job fair.
