DETROIT – IT
In The D’s next Pink Slip Party event is scheduled for September 17 at The
Majestic Theater, where as many as a thousand people show up, including over a
hundred and fifty recruiters, tons of people specifically looking for jobs, and
a whole bunch of folks just looking to meet people in the industry and extend
their professional networks.
They start
at 5pm. There’s still no cover charge at the door for you to walk in. Still no
speeches, no agendas, no sales pitches for you to have to listen to, nothing
like that. No MLM people, no insurance folks, no fruit basket salespeople. Just
professionals in and around the information technology industry.
With more
than 1,200 people having found jobs through our events, well, we’re not saying
you have to be here, but we’re definitely saying these are the best
opportunities you’ll have to meet the people who will help you move your career
forward; maybe not today, maybe not even tomorrow, but they’re the ones you
want to turn to when it matters.
A few things
are different though. Recruiters all get lanyards with a badge so they’re
easily identifiable to those looking for gigs, and people looking for gigs also
get a nametag so that they’re able to get picked out of the crowd as well. Also
unlike our other events, we have sponsors – and companies looking to hire and
get in front of a ton of people, here’s your best opportunity.
Our sponsors
are the only companies who get to setup a table (or hey, if you’ve got a trade
show booth, drag that in and set that up if you want) and really have a
presence at the event.
So go hit
our Sponsors page at http://www.itinthed.com/sponsors/and
touch base with us. We limit these on purpose, and we’re already almost
completely full less than a week after announcing the date – that should tell
you something right there.
