2. Prepare an effective resume. (Contact your college career office for assistance or to have a professional review your resume). You will want to bring an ample supply.

3. Come to WTID prepared with some information about the school district and community where you want to teach and reside.

4. Be alert to the fact that some school districts may cancel and others may register late. Monitor the district on-line registration information closely.

6. Set attainable goals for "The Day"

• Set your priorities on 5-10 school districts based on vacancies, location, size of district, etc. and go after your choice. It may not be possible to speak with every administrator at WTID.
• Some employers will conduct a mini-screening interview at their booth (5-15 minutes). Be prepared to sell yourself and to ask questions. School districts will contact you if they desire a second, more in-depth interview after WTID.
• Some employers may be at WTID to collect your resume and /or distribute information about their school district.
