I'm pretty sure we'd have to go dressed appropriately for an interview!  And yeah, bring a couple copies of your resume. I haven't been to a job fair before so this will be interesting...
How does a job fair work anyways?

I used to work for aramark at rogers arena. I started off in concession stands then was promoted to my own beer portable stand. Wicked job, good pay and great people. A plus is that I was stationed next to section 326 where the wheelchair people would watch the games so I would get to sneak some peaks when it was dead. There was also a tv above me so I would get to watch the games too I would've kept the job but working a full time in surrey then part time in vancouver and sky training back and forth wasting 2 hours of my time wasn't worth it.

Don't worry dvxo, I forgot too.
I'm sure JSALES can get a job there and hook us up
So how was the job fair like? Tell me about it I'm very curious... Was there separate rooms? Since there was a line up, did people have to walk in one at a time? Was it like American Idol?

I went yesterday and got there around 5:15. I would have went earlier but I had school and my last class ended at 4:20. There was a shit load of people. There was so many people that I didn't even get to go inside for the face to face interviews. A person that was working there basically cut the line at a certain point and was like "everyone behind this person will not be able to go for an interview today, if you would still like to apply please submit your resume into this box". This happened around 10-15 minutes in by the time I was lining up so I guess I didn't waste too much time. I feel bad for people who were lining up longer and then finding out that they don't even get a chance for the interview.
