SACC Program Outline

 

Thursday Program:

Please plan to attend the informative Interview Prep Seminar on Thursday evening – no registration is required, and the attire is casual (shorts, tees, etc.) This is an interactive seminar between the candidates and a panel of company recruiters who will provide career advice, and answer questions from the audience. The panel discussion will include topics such as what companies look for in service academy grads, how to interview, salary negotiation, resume writing, and so much more. A brief overview of the SACC career fair on Friday will also be presented.

 

Friday Program:

The actual job fair is on Friday – please dress as you would for an interview (suit & tie or uniform of the day.) Each company has a table and you are free to visit with any or all of the companies. There are no pre-arranged interviews , however as you meet with recruiters at their tables, they are evaluating your skill sets and interviewing you. If a company recruiter wishes to meet with you privately they will coordinate that with you directly upon meeting you at their booth. Some companies will interview at SACC and others do not.

 

Although the companies receive a resume book of all pre-registered SACC candidates, we recommend that you bring extra copies of your resume with you to the conference. The resume you bring may be a multiple page version if you prefer. As you meet and speak with the many recruiters, you may find it helpful to provide them with a resume to view immediately.

 

If you receive an “Interest Slip” behind your name badge at registration on Friday, that simply means that a company reviewed your resume and would like you to stop by their booth – it is not an interview. Companies will continue to post Interest Slips throughout the day, so please check the SACC message board before leaving. The SACC concludes Friday at 5:00 p.m.

Your success is very important to us! Please contact the SACC office, as well as your own Association when you receive employment offers. We are anticipating an exciting career conference. The Alumni Associations and Associations of Graduates are pleased to provide this opportunity for you, and stand ready and willing to assist.
