question to CO new hires

[Flydaplane]

Which job fairs did you go to?

10 months.
I have a friend that was told he was in the short stack about the same time I was. He's never been called (?). I think the key, once in the stack, is to update very frequently.

I went to a job fair last year with two friends. We didn't have sponsors and all three of us are now working at CAL.

Which job fairs did you go to?

I did the Continenal Job Fair in IAH. This was a company wide job fair so it was not a Pilot Sword Fight to get some face time . I'm sure any job fair will help, but I honestly believe these types are a lot better. You will be able to spend a lot more time with the recruiter instead of 10mins after standing in line for an hour, plus you'll stand out more.

App completed in July
CAL Job Fair in Sep (called five days later)
Interview in Oct
Start class Nov. 27

3 internals (1 was the sponsor)

Good Luck!!

Air, Inc job fair in September for me.

Of course, mine was a two hour wait for 10 mins of face time. It was still worth it.
