Re: Got interview at job fair...bid oci also??
Do it only if you have enough bids. If you don't have enough bids to cover all the firms you want, it would probably be a waste of a bid. Two years ago, I had 25 firms that overlapped between OCI and two minority job fairs. Only one gave me two screeners. That firm realized its mistake and asked my OCS to cancel my OCI screener. I interviewed with all 25 firms, did not get two interviews with any firm. My guess is the firms track this stuff and avoid double dipping if they have the power to do so (preselect system).Anonymous User wrote:I was preselected for a firm through the semjf job fair...at semjf they are doing the interview for multiple offices..I wrote my cover letter saying i wanted a texas office

Generally, firms don't want to have to consider the same candidate twice. If they nayed you the first time, they'll probably nay you the second time. Might still be worth trying, but only if you have bids left or are really gung go about the place.Anonymous User wrote:Do it only if you have enough bids.
