Advice about Job Fair
Going to the 2nd (and last) Broward County job fair on Friday - we have a wedding tomorrow night and I am taking a 6:10 AM flight down Friday morning to Fort Lauderdale - I am bugging because I am going to be late to the job fair and I hope not all jobs are given away!
Question about resumes -
How many resumes do you think I should run for the job fair - there are like 90 school listed - but a whopping 8 have guidance positions listed - last time my friend Deb told me to make 100 copies and I came home with a TON - I have such a pet peeve about wasting paper - I couldn't use any of those resumes over because my resume changed when I finished the school year. Don't want to bring too little - don't want to waste too much - if I have to start looking for university jobs, I won't be able to use these resumes again cause the objective says guidance counselor. I also won't have time like I did last time to drop resumes off at random tables...
what do ya think? -30? 40?

Re: Advice about Job Fair
I'm going to go high and say 50. I would give them even if they're not hiring. I got my current job by not even looking at available jobs, but sending a resume to every school in every area I wanted to work at with a cover letter saying to keep me on file. And I even got a call last year, four years later, so my point is, think big

Re: Advice about Job Fair
Even though I'm not going to have the time to drop resumes for the most part? (fair is only until 12:30 and I'll be lucky if I get there by 10 b/c of my flight)

Well, if you don't get to drop them off, you can always send them in the mail.
