TPNx
 
Hey everyone! Has anyone been recently on any job fairs? I am attending TPNx in Orlando and trying to get a 1on 1 slot with a few airlines. Could anyone tell me what to expect from these meets? Do they offer cjos on the spot? Also if I don’t get a slot is there any chance I can still talk to the recruiters?
Thanks!

Reviving this thread, but with a different question.

Is it worth it to go to TPNx for a low-time pilot?

I'm in Minneapolis and this conference is in town, but there's very little information about it. It looks like it's selling access to pilot recruiters from the airlines, but I'm pretty sure they're not interested in talking to a guy with 300 hours that they wouldn't be able to hire for years. The website mentions sessions and networking, but do people really go to this to network with other pilots?

Following up on my post. I decided to spend my day at TPNx. For me, the answer was yes; it was worth it.

I got a feel for how these events work, connected with several other pilots, and got leads on a handful of low-time opportunities locally. I was also able to connect with a bunch of airline pilots there recruiting for the majors and learn about the many ways that they went about building their time.

Appreciate the follow up, new to APF and finding loads of threads that just die.
