If you are in college or plan on returning you may have mixed feelings about essay based tests. Sure they do offer you the opportunity to write down all you know rather than being tested on what you don't know like a multiple choice test. However, one annoying part of essays is writing for extended periods of time and the accompanying hand cramps. This article explains how to best avoid cramps during the middle of your test so pay close attention.
Before Your Test
Your preparation should begin before you arrive at the career fair. The first thing that you need to do is identify your goal. What do you hope to accomplish at the fair? Are you looking for an internship, a job, or to network? Perhaps it is all three, but knowing exactly why you are going will help you determine how to best prepare.
When learning HTML I would recommend learning XHMTL first. XHTML is an older version of the language that required stricter adherence to its rules. This will help you get in the habit of writing clear and easily navigable code. Once you feel comfortable move on to HTML5 (the newest rendition) which adds some nice perks to the language and relaxes the rules a bit.
Some examples of comfortable pens may include: EZgrip, Pilot G2s, Pentel Energels, pilot's Dr Grip, UGLee pens, or even purchasing add on grips to your normal pen. Shop around and find what you prefer.
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.
The latest version of CSS is CSS3. You can go ahead and learn that one first without worrying about differences that exist in previous versions. Remember, you can surf the web looking for designs you like and borrow the code. A better method would be to buy a design template that gives you alteration rights and work from there. You can also use free programs like composer to better see your CSS in action. If you are hoping for greater control Dreamweaver has always been a favorite but unfortunately it is not free.
During Your Test
There are plenty of tutorials available online and Java itself is not difficult to learn comparably. PHP (Hypertext PreProcessor) was developed around the same time as Java and was built specifically for the web as it runs server-side and is embedded in the html pages. Just like Java, dynamic content can be written. PHP also can be used in collecting data and tracking cookies. Although PHP has other uses like desktop applications its strength lies primarily in the web.
Similar to Java PHP can also be used across all the major operating systems. You will most likely be using PHP for outputting images, PDF files, Flash Movies, and text via HTML. I would recommend you start with Java and then move on to PHP. In my experience they flow better this way. Also having a good understanding of Java gives you a leg-up learning software coding languages in the future if you have an interest.
Make sure you have the contact for the area you are interested in. Often the needed contact is not the recruiter but the head of another department so make sure to ask. Give out your resume. Underline your contact information your graduation date and write a note about what you discussed to help the recruiter remember you.
After The Fair
The language is also easily scalable but the more information you place in the database the more processing power you will need to dedicate to it. If you are carrying personal data in your system MySQL also has a high level of security built into it. Built to work well and be easy to use MySQL is probably where you want to start (although there are other languages you could use). Really no special tips for learning this language. If you have already learned the languages above MySQL really should not present a problem for you.
Organize the notes you took and record the information so it accessible in the future. The career fair is your time to shine. Regardless of if you are from a college in St George, New York, or Florida now is your time represent your school and yourself and find the job you are looking for.
