How to choose
Begin with the stand layout. A badge is worn at the entrance, a lanyard travels with the visitor all day, and a tote carries everything else, so decide which item carries your main message and which plays a supporting role. Ask for the artwork template of each selected item before placing small text near an edge, and check pen print positions against the length of your wordmark.
Then plan the handout itself: stacked on the table, packed into totes or given at the sign-in desk. Check packed dimensions against your boxes and the carry space of your team. Share artwork, colours, quantities and the event date with Sense2. Confirm material composition and available decoration method for each item, then review the digital artwork proof before production. Setup and freight are quoted separately.

Can I order a sample of Recruitment & Careers Fair Merchandise before placing a full order?
Samples for orders outside Australia are available on request. Send an enquiry with the product and your intended quantity — we confirm availability and quote the international freight before anything ships. Branded pre-production samples can also be arranged once an order is confirmed.
What are recruitment & careers fair merchandise typically used for?
Most of this range is chosen for conferences, trade shows and delegate kits. Tell Sense2 the occasion, the recipients and the quantity and we will point you to the right pieces for the brief.
Which item should carry the main artwork?
Decide by role: a tote offers a broad surface at the stand, while a badge or lanyard is worn up close. Compare the printable area of the actual items, then assign your detailed artwork to the piece with the room for it.
Can I use graduate photos or campus logos in the artwork?
Only with the rights to do so. Confirm you hold permission for any photography, third-party logos or partner marks before submitting files. Sense2 prepares a digital proof of your supplied artwork; rights clearance stays with you.
What is the minimum order?
Minimum quantities vary by item and decoration method. Send the products you prefer, your quantities and artwork to request a quote. Setup and freight are quoted separately, so compare the complete order rather than a headline unit price.
When should I place the order for a careers fair?
Share the event date and venue at the start. Stock availability, artwork approval, production and freight all shape the schedule for the specific items. Confirm current lead times with Sense2 before locking your stand plan.
What material details should I check?
Ask which materials are used on the selected item, such as cotton on t shirts or cork on keyrings. A material name alone does not establish care requirements or feel; request the product-specific information before ordering in volume.
How does the proof and order process work?
Send artwork, quantities and the event date to request a quote. Sense2 confirms stock, order minimum and available branding methods for each item, then prepares a digital artwork proof. Approve the proof before production begins; it is not a physical sample.

Tote decides the stand
Picture the stand before the doors open. Badges sit in rows beside the sign-in sheet, lanyards coiled ready, and the totes are folded flat until the first visitor arrives. Consider which object a candidate touches first: a badge clipped within the minute, or a notebook handed over with the brochure. Each choice changes where the mark sits and how long it stays in view. Ask where the artwork lands when the tote is folded, and whether the pen print position fits a short wordmark. These small decisions give the stand its shape before the first handshake.
