Hi there,

I want to ask some opinions about this topic. Are the chances of landing a job higher? Or is it a time wasting event whereby companies get to recycle all the papers collected from job seekers?

I have seen quite a number of walk-in-interviews lately. From Midvalley Megamall Convention centre to the company location itself. And I am sure that there are 100's of application forms for a specific job position. I personally have attended a walk-in-interview session early this year. And I can say it is disasterous for me tongue.gif .

I have read a thread regarding a Job Fair which is held in Midvalley Megamall recently. Some said they (companies) are there to collect resumes with no question asked. Some said they (interviewees) just filled in a form and submit it with their resume together. So, what are the main differences between attending these and sending it through e-mail/snail mail? Say there are hundred applicants there, would interviewers remember who they have interviewed or how certain interviewees perform?

I personally thinks that it is the same way as me sending my resume via e-mail/snail mail because of they way they handled. What do you think? smile.gif

I tried submitting my resume in a career fair before and no, no reply from them at all. The only time I got a job with walk-in-interview is when I wanted to get a part time job at Hilton.

I don't think it'll work out that fine because of the amount of people submitting their resume. CHances of being filtered are much higher smile.gif
