Anyway, I take this as a positive. Most of the criticism of having job fairs falls apart under examination. Reaching out to applicants is common across many industries. Having a better look and getting to know applicants will lead to better hiring decisions and better cockpit partners for years to come. I do, however, wish we were doing job fairs like OBAP and WAI (unpopular opinion on this site) because applicants can meet with EVERY airline in one trip (1-3 days) versus jetting all over the country to these in house fairs. Maybe ALPA should just get every carrier together and do this and donate the cash to charity.
Actually there are three separate fairs. Civilian, military and family.
