There will a reduced attendance from previous conventions - but that may be to your advantage(less comp.) but it's still a gamble.
BTW, this isn't jobhunt related - more jobkeep related;-)
I spoke @ an org.luncheon @ the request of a superior.
@the function, I was pleasantly surprised at being presented w/ a gift box
When I sat down & opened the box(a pen case) - it was empty!
I quickly closed it and fiqured eventually the giver will realize it.However,
to make things stickier, I inadvertantly left the box on a chair.
It's been 2 days now & no word - I realize that normally a thank you would be in order But I don't know for sure what the "gift" was actually supposed to be??
How does one handle such an awkward situation? - it's a new one for me!

Subject: [JobHunt] Toronto convention
Folks,
For those of us without institutional remuneration
expected for attendance at the upcoming convention, it
would be an expensive proposition to attend. I was
therefore wondering what you all think about the
likelihood that attendance there, to take advantage of
the placement service, would likely result in
employment offers? I am not interested in wasting big
money on getting a half-dozen prelim screening
interviews, where no serious likelihood of employment
resultant therefrom would arise. Thanks.
