I'm already registered, but where do you sign up for the time to meet United?

Sorry. At the job fair itself is my understanding.

That's my question also....can I meet with everyone in one day? Should I plan on 2 days or just 1 full day?

Thanks

How early is "too early" to start going to these? I'm about three hours away from DC and considering going. I'm also active-duty military and at least 3-4 years from being able to apply. Is there value in going to this or other job fairs this early, or would I be starting to get on somebody's radar as a future applicant?

Are simple business cards a good idea for these types of event?

To give to other pilots that you meet, yes. To prospective employers, no, give them a well done resume on proper paper.

Following the other questions... I have never been to a job fair, and thinking about attending OBAP. I unfortunately only have enough time to attend a single day. I am trying to talk to AA,DL,UA,SW. What ticket do you buy? And how do I know what days they will be meeting with applicant.

I believe OBAP will next week, or in a few weeks, announce how the tickets will be distributed, but don't quote me on this. The airlines you mentioned should be there all three days.

I encourage you to attend. Even if it's for one day, you'll get something out of it.

Stop by our booth and say hello, we'll be there all three days as well.
