Career fair
I saw an ad in the NY times ages ago about a career fair on March 10, 2007. It said you had to be invited.. it's a western suffolk location, diverse educator fair. I haven't got an invite and haven't heard or seen anything else about it. Does anyone know anything?

Re: Career fair
I just got my invitation for it yesterday. It is by invite only, but you had to send them your resume and certification.

Re: Career fair
I also sent my resume and cert. Do you mind me asking what your certifications are... I'm eled.. which is why I'm assuming I didn't get an invite. Are there any more career fairs coming up?

Re: Career fair
Honestly, I went to a few career fairs last year and did not find any of them to be worthwhile. Good luck

even though they could be a waste of time, you never know. the exposure is the most important thing with looking for a teaching job.
i got a second interview from the Nassau Diversity Fair and it went well. Definitely not a waste of time there.

Re: Career fair
I know. I hate saying a "waist of time" but if I could be working PT that day or actually seeing my husband as apposed to a hopefully interview, I'd skip it.

I went to that one years ago and found it to be a complete waste of time in my opinion. I was Elem. Ed Cert and nobody wanted to deal wth a general cert. I will be done with my Master's in April in TESOL. It was worth it for me to get it in something marketable.

---------------------------------------
I'm actually going back for my ESL certifciation.. I'm waiting to be based in NY so I can go back to Hofstra. TESOL is different from ESL? I see ESL ads all the time.. I'm hoping this will open more doors.
