going to a job fair at college

[DarkManX]

what do you guys think? Should i include in objective? im i still have about 2 years left, and im really only looking for a part time job tfor the fall when i quit my current full time job to focus on school. im not looking for an internship yet, just something to pay the bills.

objective, if you ahve one, should be tailored to the specific position you apply for, IMO. if you are going to a fair, you will be asking about a lot of different positions. so either you have a worthless generic objective, or a specific objective that may not apply for everything you want to be considered for.

Won't really matter if it's a big job expo/career fair. The ones I went to in college that were really big, the companies would basically just junk your resume or tell you to go online to submit an application.

Agreed.
They were just resume drops that didn't amount to anything as all the real way to submit a resume was on their site.
It was only useful to get to talk to people and get a better understanding of the company and jobs available.

Your objective should be mastering written communications before you graduate.
