QR Code Career Fair Table Checklist

Career fair QR checklist

1. Assign one owner for every QR code: employer, recruiter, campus career office, event platform, or approved vendor.
2. Confirm the destination URL, employer name, role, table number, requested fields, file upload purpose, and fallback contact.
3. Print a typed career page, job ID, or staffed help path beside QR codes that ask for resumes, logins, files, or personal details.
4. Inspect table signs, handouts, badge cards, and QR stands for sticker overlays, short-link swaps, copied flyers, or stale forms.
5. Remove or cover expired codes when the fair closes, a role fills, a form changes, or the employer table leaves.

What each table should document

• Employer name, recruiter name, table number, role or program, and the person responsible for each QR code.
• Approved URL, form owner, event platform, job ID, upload type, requested fields, and confirmation path.
• Whether the QR code appears on a sign, handout, badge card, email, event app, or social post.
• The person staff should contact if a domain, login prompt, or form owner looks unfamiliar.

Escalation triggers

• The destination does not match the employer, role, recruiter, or campus career fair listing.
• The QR page asks for passwords, one-time codes, payment, bank details, or unrelated identity information.
• A sticker, copied flyer, or screenshot replaces the approved table sign.
• The recruiter cannot explain who owns the form or where the resume will go.
