Annual Meeting On-Site Job Bank Center
Located in the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, the
on-site Job Bank Center provides Annual Meeting attendees
with access to the SOT Job Bank system as well as assistance
in facilitating interviews at the SOT Annual Meeting. All
users with current registrations at the time of the Annual
Meeting will be permitted to use this service.
A bank of computers will be available in the SOT Job Bank
Center for last minute updates to your account information
or posting, as well as printers for producing paper copies of
candidate profiles and position descriptions. If you are a
candidate attending the Annual Meeting, you should bring
multiple copies of your personal resume for interested
interviewers. All candidates and positions will be sought
on-line.
Employers recognize and appreciate that the Annual Meeting
On-Site Job Bank Center provides a cost-effective and
efficient way to interview a distinguished pool of candidates.
Employers and candidates may take advantage of the multiple
spaces available in Rooms 157 and 158 for interviews. Some
rooms were available to be scheduled in advance, and others
are on a first-come, first-served basis. To ensure privacy for
candidates, the SOT Job Bank Center is located away from the
scientific sessions. Also, the Job Bank interview rooms will
be fitted with modular hard walls to increase privacy when
interviews are conducted.
It is up to the registrants of this service to exercise the
confidentiality options that are offered. SOT is not responsible
if any information contained in the Job Bank database is
released.
Although you are encouraged to pre-register before entering
the Job Bank Center, you can register on-site in Rooms 157
and 158.
The Center is available during the following
hours of operation:
Sunday, March 6.......................................... 1:00 PM–4:30 PM
Monday, March 7........................................ 9:00 AM–4:30 PM
Tuesday, March 8........................................ 8:30 AM–4:30 PM
Wednesday, March 9.................................. 8:30 AM–4:30 PM
On-line Job Bank access will be available—as always—
through your personal computer and at the Annual Meeting
E-mail Center. Access to the on-line Job Bank in the Center is
limited to short searches for updates or new information.
