Visit our online information guide to start preparing for the event.  Our OFO Virtual Career Expo is an informational recruitment event; no interviews will be held, and no job offers will be made. You may enter the Expo to attend any of our live webinar broadcasts and browse the booths. However, the first two hours of the event will likely be the busiest, so you may want to wait until later in the day to sign up for a one-to-one chat with a recruiter.  Prepare/for our virtual recruiting event just as you would for an in-person event: 
Update your two-page resume and upload it to your profile on the event platform.

Make a list of questions: Each booth has a discussion feed where you can post a question. Recruiters will monitor these public message boards and respond.  
 Stay in touch with us! When you complete your registration, you'll be added to our Talent Network. Each month, you'll receive our Events and Opportunities newsletter, which contains the most recent webinar and career event information and locations where our recruiters will be available in person at various events.
