    In this employment environment, a person has to be pretty naive to think ANY of these companies are hiring. This event is nothing more than a way for the local HR managers to hob-knob and chew the fat; waste of company’s assets. I’m staying home!

    just a way for people to fill out apps. and the company’s never call. Its free lunch and OT for the people of these company’s. It’s a party to them.
