I agree 100%.

Its [pastrami sandwich] too that they charge $50 fee to cancel, and you can only cancel or transfer until the last week of June. They know how airline schedules work. None of us will know by the end of June if we'll have the fair off yet or not. Such a freaking scam.

Theres also no reason, unless you're scheduled for a 1 on 1, that you wouldn't be able to just transfer your pass up to the day of. Last year they said it gets too confusing and complicated to deal with issuing new name tags. Gimmie a freaking break.

I don't know if it's sold out or not but I'll keep everyone posted on what happens with me.

I also agree! $150 to have the privilege of talking to a recruiter! What a crock of [eggs benedict]! I hate how they use these job fairs to show "how dedicated you are", as if us working our [balut] off to be more competitive and further our careers is some how not showing dedication. It's a scam and it [vegan dumplings] me off.

The career fair isn't sold out, there's just no more appointment slots available. Just means you have to stand in the long lines and wait your turn.

I paid the 50 dollar membership fee then the 150 for the convention, I got a confirmation email, then two minutes later got an email saying I cancelled my attendance. I basically paid 200 dollars for no reason, anyone else having this issue?? No one over there will respond to me, I'm just going go to dispute the charges if no one gets back to me, I'm sick of this crap.

That is not true. There is in fact an error with their website that they are working to rectify. Just have to wait for it to reopen. Appointments are still available.

So is this thing sold out or not? I just renewed my membership for $49, logged in, but still only get the Full Membership, A La Carte, and Booth Attendee options. Nothing for Career Fair only...

Anyone had any luck scheduling a time? I paid my $200, but still can't even get to the scheduling system. When they get it back up and running, will registration be based on who registered first or who schedules first? Last year if you didn't have a UA time, they literally would not see you. I assume it will be the same this year and might even carry over to DL. So basically if you want to go to talk to UA/DL and can't get a time there's no point in going to it.
