Job Fairs?

[Hugh Jorgan]

Okay, So I shelled out the 99 bucks, I'm goin to Dallas, I've got apps in with all of the carriers there that I meet the minimums for. I stand in line to meet with these folks, when I get to the front of the line and finally meet up with the reps from each company, what in the world do I say? Also, Should I be concerned about walking up to the Jetblue people, telling them how much I want to work for them and then walking over and getting in the AirTran line? Anyway, I figure it can't hurt to go, just not sure what kind of approach to take with these folks when I get their ear for a moment or two. Thanks, good luck to all.

Just dont get in the jetblue line and tell them how badly you want to work at airtran and vice versa...


Capt Over, I can save you 25 bones right off the bat, next time you go to the "dance place" just get one dance instead of your usual two or three!!!

I called Air Inc and they said it was 175 for Saturday if your not a member and 150 something if you are a member. Does anybody know the real scoop?????

another .02 into the pile...

Granted I went about a year ago, at that time many regionals were there, the big boys were UPS, FEDEX, American, TWA, Frontier, Southwest, Air Tran and I think Delta.

I also remember that SWA does not take resumes from the fair, they want you to go through thier regular process. They had a booth but absoulety no line, unlike everyone else (except the TWA guys) who were 100 deep if not more.

With my limited time I stopped at Air Tran and did get a card and made contact with that important recruiter. He told me exactly what I needed (at that time) to get an interview. For that, I would say the event had some value, but I am not sure it had the $125 I paid to go.

I know I will never go to another Air inc Fair as I do not want to spend that type of $$$. I will try AEPS though, now only if we could get them to put them in some decent cities...
The only thing Air Inc has over AEPS is the city choices are much more convienent for us non-rev's or those who may be based in those cities.
