I have been to somewhere around 5 int'l job fairs in the past 8 years (one in one season, then in two separate seasons, I attended 2 fairs). They are intense but I love the energy and meeting such a diverse group of people, both administrators and teachers. Your post almost made me wistful, as I sit here wondering where I'll be next year, fielding the questions from colleagues. It *is* strange for it to be February, knowing I'm leaving, but not attending a job fair. Like Brian, I'm surprised your blog never came up. Honestly, I would have thought a lot of recruiters' first stop after the interview and reference check would be Google. Thanks for sharing; I'm excited for you as you move to the next venture, and I'll be following eagerly! <abbr><em>Adriennes last blog post..<a href="http://msmichetti.edublogs.org/2009/01/19/is-it-easy-being-green-my-visit-to-green-school/" rel="nofollow">Is It Easy Being Green?

You make me hope an interviewER from the fair (hint hint?) will write a companion piece. Would be interesting to read. (BTW, a certain JB ranked high on my list of decent folks it would be a pleasure to work with, fyi. Really kind and as droll as they come. Was nice to talk with that one.) @Andy,
