The facts:
The Job Fair sucks big time. Florida West was there and they are not hiring at all!!!!
like many others I guess. This Fair is something that Aeroservice does to advertise their self, like always.
I do not understand what Lan Peru is doing. I know the reasons behind all the requirements (talking about nationality), are basically limitations that they have related with immigration policies, ok, fine, but what the hell they are doing in Miami?, they really hope to find people like they were looking for ? (Spain or Pacto Andino country Nationality,4000h PIC Jet(minimum), 58 to 62 years old, wide body experience, fluent Spanish, and of course, jobless and willing to move to Lima).I know we are on crisis, but hey, come on!!!, how many people like that you can find in Miami?, maybe I am wrong.
The facts for hiring were.
FO: Just if you are peruano, not other nationalities at all. Plus the minimums hours that I don’t know.
DEC: Peruvian, Spanish or Pacto Andino only, as I mentioned that before, the age 58 to 62 was just for the 767, plus the minimum experience of course.
Any way, Lan Peru is a good company and people from HR is very very nice, the only negative side is that they are looking for people “here” ,that they should be looking “there”, and many guys(pilots) are wasting time, money and illusions in that process.
Good luck to everyone, and congratulations to Lan Peru and their people, is good news to know that they are hiring again, regardless where are they from.

Whether the fair"sucks" or not depends on each one of us. One thing is for sure: it is better for it is FREE compared to other job fairs who charge $100-200 just to get in. Trust me , i've been there. Aeroservice can advertise all they want about themselves. They have that right when using their facility.
In regards to LAN peru: i saw 300 hr wonders in line to talk to them totally disregarding their posted requirements, which were available in the handout as you entered the fair. Except for the nationality requirements, which were nowhere mentioned.They have a right to ask for whatever they want. Whether they get them or not, well, that's another story.

Totally agree with you, they have the right to ask for whatever they consider is a fair minimum to get hired by them. I have absolutely no problem with LAN for doing that. My personal experience was good, other than the requirements they handed you at the front door and the fact that I'm sure that a lot of "300 hrs wonders" probably paid a ticket or some form of transportation to get there in the hope of getting hired by someone,i.e. LAN, just to be given minimums at the door that I'm confident had they known those were the minimums they were asking for, they wouldn't have gone to the fair. It was free, but brother, you were there, nobody was hiring...maybe Colgan and Cape Air.
Like I said, I had a great experience and meet some really cool guys and some old friends from town, but then again, I have a very good job with lots of seniority and working in the training dept.; I had nothing to lose and got to see my family again for a couple of days, but it hurt me to see all these guys come over with the illusion of getting somewhere, me included...I'm not going to lie, just to see the "real minimums" and "hiring status" at the door, that then again, if Aeroservice would have made them available at their web page, this guy would've stayed at home.
