DetroitNet Pink Slip party and IT job openings

I didn't ask Dave for his permission to post this in advance so I shall ask for his forgiveness now. But I thought this information would be valuable to our members and their network. This is an e-mail I received through Detroitnet.org last week.

Just a quick reminder that we're a week away from our next DetroitNET.org Pink Slip Party on Thursday, October 15th at the Post Bar in Novi.

Four more people got hired just last week from our events, and so we're really looking forward to this final push helping make the last quarter a good one.

Again, do please note the venue change - the event next Thursday is at the Post Bar in Novi. Plenty of free, attached parking and a much larger venue...should be a great event. Feel free to check out the FAQs - http://detroitnet.org/page/pink-slip-party-faq - for more information.

You can RSVP...

- On LinkedIn: http://events.linkedin.com/DetroitNET-org-Pink-Slip-Party-Post-Bar/pub/121065

- On our site: http://detroitnet.org/calendar/event/2009/10/15/137065

- And don't forget to send your resume to detroitnet@gmail.com so that we can get it out to the recruiters, HR personnel and hiring managers that have committed to attend.

We also wanted to be a little more pro-active this time around, and so we asked some of those recruiters to let us know what their hot needs were at this time so that we could email them out to you and get the ball rolling beforehand.
...and, seriously, if you think this is the worst idea ever that these are included, please feel free to let us know. As always, we're just experimenting with different things to see how our group can be of the most benefit.
