Personally, I was blown away at the support I received from dozens of candidates. Everyone had positive things to say and I enjoyed meeting each of you.
I also appreciate the support on this forum and I understand where some of the questions are coming from.
For those of you wondering about my eagerness, personality, or resume.....this was my 2nd job fair, had internal recs, knew my company stats, >1,000 pic turbine, former mil fighters, 73 typed, spoke with Scott about interview prep, and of course - wore the yellow suit.
However, my resume had very little to do with getting the interview. If you ask me what got me in the door at Spirit, I would say.....pure desire to contribute to the company and determination to do whatever it takes to convey that message. Spirit is the only place I want to be.
Everyone I spoke with knows...."I wish everyone could be hired and that I would love to help." No need for anyone to wear a goofy suit.
Thank you Scott, Craig, Jasen, and the rest of the Aero Crew staff for putting on another great event. The service you provide is invaluable!!
Best of luck to everyone.....I sincerely wish you the best!!
Well done! I can attest that the first fair is a learning event. I figured you had been to a fair before and learned the ropes. The first time I saw you is when you sat directly in front of me in the presentation. I thought, darn I should have thought of that, and there is no way I'm getting noticed now. I don' t think I could have pulled off the suit the way you did.
I put all my effort into preparing for my 5 min with the recruiter and didn't think about the great networking opportunities that were available the rest of the time. Hopefully, I won't have to go back as my encounter was positive, but if I have to I will and I'll be much better at the game!
How much did the suit cost you?
