It is boring and it does suck. But at least it's long. It used to be better. I thiink if you want to be in the parade you should have to have a real float and candy. If I want to look at a 3 hour advertisement I can stay home and read the yellow pages.
Just take your resume. no folders. Job fairs are kind of a joke in my opinion. depending on what you're looking for I guess. networking with everybody you've ever met in your life is the best thing to do.
