1. Virtual Cleared Job Fair Guide for Job Seekers

Visit the job fair page of the event you’ll be attending for training details and the registration link.
2. Research the participating companies and the positions they are hiring for.
3. Run this quick service check link to make sure you can access the event on your device without issues.
The event is web based so downloads are not necessary.
4. Dress professionally and be prepared to be on camera in case an employer invites you to use the
platform’s video or audio chat feature. Run this quick audio/video check link.
5. If you run into technical issues, email support@brazen.com.
6. Make sure you have a good internet connection - and no pending system updates.
7. Turn up your volume so you can hear notifications chime when you’re connected to a chat with a
recruiter.

Prepare Questions and
Responses
Type up a cheat sheet with a brief
intro/greeting and responses to
commonly asked interview questions,
so you can quickly copy and paste
into the text chat.
This is your chance to prepare in
advance by crafting clear, concise
statements about you, your
experience, and your goals.
It’s also helpful to type up questions
that are specific to each employer
you hope to chat with. Thoughtful
questions stand out and should be
about the company culture and
climate, their hiring process, or
professional and staff development
(information you don’t find on their
website).
Elevator Speech:
I’m Jane Job Seeker, an award-winning web designer with a Top Secret
clearance. I’ve been recognized by my customers for fulfilling user needs
and delivering a finished product that exceeds project requirements.
Talking Point for XYZ Company:
I recently collaborated with my technical team and led an initiative
to successfully migrate customer website hosting. My proven ability
to translate complex issues quickly and effectively in a fast-paced
environment may be a good fit for your Sr. Web Designer opening in
Huntsville.
Questions:
What is your hiring process like?
Are there opportunities for remote work at your company?
What are your goals for the position over the next six months?

8. The chat conclusion page lets you send an immediate quick thank you to the recruiter, rate your chat
(which is only visible to you), and take notes for your personal reference.
Hello Sara. What specific positions do you have an interest in?
Please give me a moment while I review your resume.
Hi Bob. My intelligence analysis and program management background may be a good fit
for your Program Manager opening in Reston, VA.
4. Keep an eye on the countdown clock to see the amount of time left during each chat. Either you or the
recruiter may end the chat.
5. When you enter a Chat, be prepared to tell the recruiter which of their positions interest you. They will
be reviewing your resume (it pops up on their screen), so give them a moment.
6. In your first chat you can set a Greeting. Once set, it will automatically use that greeting at the start of
each new chat.
7. During your text-based chat, an employer may invite you to video or audio chat. Say yes if you can! It’s
an effective and easy way to get even more information and personality across.
