’Twas a few weeks before the fair, and all through Drake’s campus,
Students were stressing out but preparing with focus.
Polishing their resume, practicing their pitch,
Each student ready to impress, without any hitch.
The emails were sent and OnCampus invites,
“Sign up for the Career Fair!” in flashing lights.
From business to STEM, education and journalism, too,
So many employers and graduate programs will be looking for talent like you.
