I’m a recruiter. This is the first one of these I’m going to. What do I do?
The basics still all apply – show up, sign in, grab a beverage, and start chatting. For recruiters in particular, we strongly recommend getting to know us quickly, since odds are good we’ll be playing traffic cop and directing people around all night…and if you want job seekers directed your way, then we have to…

Okay, I guess that makes me feel better. So I’ve signed in. Now what?
