Ozarks Technical Community College’s Career Services will host an outdoor job fair on Wednesday, May 5, from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on the Student Plaza at the OTC Springfield Campus.

• Be prepared with a list of references, written work or a portfolio.
• Dress the same as they would for a job interview.
• Turn off their cell phones when talking to potential employers.
• Be prepared to ask the recruiters questions.
• Follow up after the event with a note or email to the recruiter expressing their interest in the job.
