Career Fairs...Job Fairs...

I'm trying to find a good resource to find the latest on where all the fairs are. I'm looking beyond Regionals, but I suppose any resource would be great for those looking to hit on the Regionals, also.

A sleeper is the women in aviation job fair. A bunch of dudes and dudetts got interviews where I work and acceding to the interwebz getting an interview where I work is all but impossible.

Here is a list of job fairs coming up:

AeroCrewSolutions.com July 21st- Atlanta, Sept 8th- Chicago
Obap.org July 31st- Aug 3rd- Las Vegas
FAPA.aero August 25th- Boston, Sept 21st- Atlanta
Women in Aviation March 14th- 16th 2013 Nashville

A lot of the main job fair's are great for regionals and mainlines, occasionally CFI position, and occasionally a cargo company or 2 show up. Corporate/Charter, most cargo, etc.... people recommend you for a position, and networking...

Two of my buddies got called by Xjet AFTER they went to a job fair. Meeting recruiters face to face makes a huge difference!

Definitely not cargo. Cargo companies do go to Job fairs and such. Places like Encore will even hire off the street.

I'm not talking FedEx and UPS. I'l talking more along the lines of AirNet.

They do. I talked to an Airnet recruiter at the last JC hosted job fair. AMF has been known to go around as well. It does happen.

I know I've posted this somewhere before on one of these here interweb message doohickeys, but of the five jobs I've held in the aviation business, attendance of a job fair got me started with three of them. My math may be a little off; I'm pretty drunk at the moment...

Anywhatsits, my personal experience suggests you give them a shot.

It is a good idea to go to these. Once my flight time gets high enough I will start attending these regularly.

I've been going about this the wrong way. So that's the secret! I kid, I kid.
