Is there any positive feedback from anyone who attended? What did airlines look for with applicants and did anyone land a flying gig? $129 is a nice bit of change to pay for a job fair so I am curious to know how things went with the participating companies recruiting.
If you take a girl on a date are you only buying her dinner because she is guaranteeing you to get laid and a BJ?
come on man, look at the economy and how many pilots are still out of work. You are just another example of the gimme gimme gimme generation.
You don't want to pay the $129, I get that that I do not either, but you must realize nothing is guaranteed or owed to you. YOU HAVE TO EARN IT!
I paid for to get the FE written and had to pay $75 just to apply to FedEx. I am out almost $350, I do not expect a call from FedEx anytime soon and now they do not have the the above requirements, just what you have to do sometimes to play the game.
good luck!
