Heard it's a great way to get an interview invite. Wish I could attend but I'll still be out in Afghanistan. Crossing fingers my application gets pulled when the new window opens. Looking forward to hearing how the event goes.

Kind of wish I'd thought to ask this a couple weeks ago instead of a couple hours before I fly to this event but hopefully somebody can help. What can I expect at this fair? The other job fairs I've went to have been 4 minutes in front of targeted recruiters, and this one looks like 4 hours. Are there going to be presentations and seminars, or do I need to figure out how to fill hours of time with people who get to decide if I get a job or not. Obviously it's not an interview, but I'm sure I'll get the opportunity to screw up any chance of an interview

EDIT: complete aside -- are there airport shuttles to the hotels in the Queens area around the JB HQ? I'm staying at the Country Inn and Suits on Crescent, estimating a 1 hour $55 cab fare each way for the 13 mile trip!!!
