Some of you may remember a post I made a few weeks back that caused quite a commotion. I want to clear the air on behalf of the company putting this together, Tavern Media. I have spoken to the organizers of the event at Tavern Media who ensure me that this is a legitimate job fair, it costs very little to get in and it’s completely safe.
There have been issues brought up that this a job fair where you have to “pay to get a job”. That’s ridiculous. Entry is either $5 or two canned items, which they donate to charity. With hundreds of jobs at 45+ companies available and so many people out of work, is two cans of corn really going to stop you?
Secondly, there has been a number of accusations of Tavern not paying it’s invoices and ripping off it’s vendors. The contact I spoke with offered to hand over his books to me (or any other member of the media) for examination.
So, all of that said, if you’re looking for work and you want a chance to meet prospective employers, you should attend the job fair this weekend.
June 26th, 27th and 28th.

Thats right, they do not pay. They hired me by guru.com and I was quite naive and give up job without payment first… Well, I will not do that mistake again… Anyway – freelancers beware of them.
