Second Year MBAs Advised to 'Carpet Bomb' High School Job Fairs
BCC Roundup: Giving credit to Charles Hill's 'blue ocean strategy', Bryan Tomlinson of the BCC urged MBA students to attend high school job fairs in the coming weeks. "It's a bad economy. While it's true that companies are still attending MBA job fairs, it's more of a PR stunt for them at this point. The aren't really hiring," said Tomlinson. Tomlinson mentioned an incident at the Spring Forum where he witnessed two recruiters from a local company using a stack of resumes to make the legs on their table even and less wobbly. When he confronted them about the incident they stated, "How can you expect us to play Sodoku in between student informationals with a wobbly recuriting table?" Tomlinson shared his thoughts about the high school job fair format with the MBAlmer, "We've tried the undergrad job fairs. We urge our students to show up in wife beaters and hats on backward to fit in but we still haven't had much luck stealing temp jobs away from undergrad Fish & Marine Science majors. The next logical step was to go the next level down and carpet bomb the high school job fairs with highly qualified MBAs." Tomlinson cited the Inglemoor High School job fair as a tremendous opportunity at the end of May. "There will be national firms like Cold Stone Creamery along with local giants Gregg's Bike Shop and Trophy Cupcakes," stated Btom.

In other news, the BCC is investigating several members of the class of 2009 over an alleged job Ponzi scheme. According to Paula Klempay in the BCC, a few students have devised a way to hire their student friends through an ellaborate, unethical process. In this scheme, students take on a final student loan and agree to hire their friend into a job that doesn't really exist until they can find a real job. Klempay was tipped off to the scheme after a conversation with FT '09er Fran Lalas, who asked Paula to move her name from one side of the BCC board to the other after she was hired by a little known start-up called Maryanimal Moore Pet Shops.
