[quote=Anonymous]I am the OP of the thread where I was looking to get out of childcare and into a new career.  I have been applying to some entry level/ admin type jobs (and have a meeting with a temp agency later in the week).  I have probably applied to 40 jobs in the last week. Zero responses yet, other than the generic auto-reply from HR saying they got my application materials.
I received a phone call yesterday about a position I applied for as a leasing consultant at a well known luxury apartment complex.  I don't have experience doing that, but I had the qualifications they asked for.  Well, I called back today and the woman I spoke with was just inviting me to a job fair they are having tomorrow.  I can't make it (it's the one day I have to stay late at work of course), and I told her that- she said she is meeting with a few people on Friday and I could go then.  Ok.  My question- did she even look at my resume and think I was qualified?  Or is this a standard move where they just invite all the applicants to a job fair and see who they like?  
I am wondering if it's a waste of time, it's about a half hour away.  Not too far, and I'll most likely go as it's been my only call back.  Let me know what you think.[/quote]
