There's a Job Fair happening in Austin on Thursday and I'd love it if you'd go and support it, in particular Lesley Robinson.

Lesley works for Right Management, the outplacement firm that's running the job fair.  In early 2007, I took advantage of the outplacement service my company offered through Right Management. If you ever get RIF'd, do take advantage of these services, they can really help you get organized in your job search.  Lesley was very helpful, and is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet.  If you go, tell her I sent you, and read about it here.  And do make an effort to prepare using The Job Seekers Tool Kit.

When:  Thursday June 5th
Time:  9-11:30am
Where: Doubletree Hotel (IH35 North, just north of Pappadeux's)

Companies Attending the Right Management Job Fair on June 5th

Workforce Solutions


One of the employers, AMCC, is on a roll, as they're not only attending this job fair, but hosting their own networking event the same evening.  According to Matt Genovese of Door64.com, the premiere networking site for high tech types in town:

In conjunction with door64.com, AMCC is holding a networking night for Austin-area chipheads!  If you work or manage in chip design, verification, processor or system architecture, integration, or in some similar capacity, come on out to this free event.  Enjoy free drinks, food, and a chance to win some great door prizes!

I'm going to make you go to Door64 for more information. But if you find out details elsewhere, let 'em know you heard about it here. and mention Door64, too. Matt deserves some credit.
