Rocking The Career Fair

By Franklin Skribbit


The career fair is a great opportunity to meet with different companies, find job leads, and build your network. You need to understand how to present yourself and make the most of these events. Here are a few tips.

XHTML/HTML5 HTML (hypertext markup language) is the backbone of your website. Web documents contain three main sections: the head, the title, and the body. These sections are written in HTML. The head includes the webpage's identifying information. Search Engine's like Google are only capable of reading the HTML of a website. The head section of the webpage is essential if you want your website to show up in Google's results page. The title is what appears in the browser's URL tab and is what your website will be known as throughout the internet. The body is where the content visible to visitors is written. Text and graphics can be adjusted using HTML tags (commands).

1. Find the Right Pen This is going to be very important. The right pen can greatly add to or remove any cramping that you may experience. There are three main criteria that you need to have in mind when purchasing your pen. The first is a wide grip. When a pen has a wider grip your fingers do not have to close down as much, nor do they need to exert the same amount of pressure to hold the pen. The wide grip affords you a much natural hand position.

As the fair gets closer review the list of companies that will be attending and identify the ones that you would like to speak with. Place them in three priority groups; those you must talk with, those you would like to talk with, and those who you will talk with in your extra time. This will save you time at the fair as you know exactly where you are going.

CSS3 CSS (cascading style sheet) allows you to control the look and feel of your website easily and quickly. The idea of CSS is to control the design of a website without altering the content (content is written in HTML). A style sheet is a page that lists all of the visual qualities that you want your webpages to have. This can include color, size, style, etc. of your font. It also includes the background of pages, the look of tabs and buttons. Basically, all of your visual elements are contained within the style sheet. In reality HTML although it does contain tags to bold, italicize, control font size, etc. was not really designed to format content. HTML exists more to define the content as discussed above.

After having spent this entire time finding the right pen you don't want to have to do it again. If you can find a nicer pen that takes replaceable ink so you can use it over and over. If you prefer some reusable pens are also very comfortable. I personally preferred to find a great pen and use it through my college career; to each his own.

This actually may have negative repercussions because the first impression they give to recruiters is that they are lazy and unprepared. You need to make a good impression so they look through your resume afterwards.

Java & PHP I am lumping these two languages together because they are the key languages for dynamic web pages and are interchangeable at times (you can use either one to get very similar effects). Dynamic web pages include things like games, chat abilities, image viewing, interactive apps or advertisements. Java was originally developed for software and in-browser applets and has become a key infrastructure for web apps. Java shares many similarities to C++ (which can be a nice benefit if want to learn different languages in the future). Java allows the same program to be executed on different operating systems. No need to fear if a Mac, Linux, or Microsoft user makes their way to your website. Java contains build in support and is easy to use.

1. Stretch Before you being to write and during the test there are a number of different stretches that you can do to reduce the cramping in your hand. One set of exercises you can do is as follows: -Hold out your arm in front of you with your palm facing down. Lift up wrist while letting your fingers dangle downward. -Next reverse the motion by pressing your wrist downward and stretching up your fingers -Relax your hand and slowly open and close it fully. -If necessary repeat the motions.

Listen to each person you speak with even if you are not interested. Don't burn bridges before they are even built. Perhaps one of these contacts will be useful in the future as you look for other jobs. Take notes of what the individuals talk about.

MySQL Before you start going into MySQL understand that you can build a great website with just HTML, CSS, Java, and PHP. MySQL is used primarily for database building which most websites will need eventually, especially if you are selling items on a large-scale. If you are simply creating a visual website for personal uses you probably won't need to bother with this language, but we will assume you have high hopes for your website's growth.

3. Take Breaks Space out breaks evenly during your test. For during a two hour test perhaps every fifteen minutes set your pen down for five seconds and just relax your hand. You can also throw some stretching in during these breaks. This break time does not need to be unproductive. In fact it can be highly beneficial if you use it as time to evaluate what you have wrote and what you plan to write. This will help you maintain a holistic view of your paper and help you write a better.

Make contact with the individuals you spoke with. Reach out through email, LinkedIn, or even a phone call. Thank them for the time they took in speaking with you and ask them to keep you updated in job opportunities.

Hopefully this article answered some of the questions you may have had and gets you on your way to being a first class programmer and web developer. You can choose to learn these different languages on your own (there are tons of tutorials scattered throughout the web. However if you prefer the classroom or hope to make this a future career you will want to of find a degree like Computer Programming (AAS) where they will teach you these skills and hand you a diploma.
