Let me guess, now the prerequisite to being a pilot at delta is to be an FA for a year at FA wages before we can be a pilot? This is so we will have an even greater appreciation for what FA's do and also pay our dues since none of us could have possibly done that for the last 12 years

This is so not true. Going to a job fair will not push your resume to the top of the stack! In fact when you meet the recruiter they will tell you that it won't help you get the interview. What they will tell you is that by coming to the job fair, it will cause them to pull and review your application which could trigger an interview invite. Again, I can't stress what a slap in the face it is to Delta to imply that just because you meet someone you will get an invite. They have a process and if you app scores high enough you will get the invite. Going to a job fair will get your app scored if it hasn't already been scored and that may get you the invite. No one really knows how the application is scored but to imply that a community college guy that gets a 2.8 gpa in ten years of schooling would get an interview over a fighter pilot or an Ivy League college guy just because he went to a job fair is ludicrous.
I know networking was the key to getting my app looked at and then getting hired.

All things being equal, a well qualified applicant with a properly filled out application will be much better off networking than not. If you get your app looked at and they give it the green light, how has networking not helped you?

I certainly can't come up with how your chances would be harmed by networking, unless you made an @$$ out of yourself to whomever you are trying to network with. In that case, that type of person was probably never going to get the nod in the end anyway.
