My company, well ok, the company I work for (I don't own it yet), L3 Communications ( http://www.l-3com.com/csw/ ) is a defense contractor and one of the largest communications companies in Utah. (The SLC division where I work has nearly 3,000 employees.) L3 makes the data links that communicate with the unmanned airplanes like Global Hawk ( http://www.af.mil/news/factsheets/global.html ) and Predator ( http://www.af.mil/news/factsheets/RQ_1_Predator_Unmanned_Aerial.html )As you can imagine, we are one of the few technical industries that is experiencing explosive growth. We've hired 30+ people a month for the last year.
Anyway, if you search their job listings in Salt Lake, https://208.169.18.201/clients/l3/publicjobs/Canviewjobs.cfm? you'll find that there are still 57 job openings. Consequently, this Friday, September 5th - 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Saturday, September 6th - 8:00 a.m. to noon, L3 is having a Career fair. That means that if you look at those jobs (for example they have many software engineer positions open), and find one you qualify for, you need only to bring your resume and yourself and the head of Human Resources here at L3 guarantees me that each of you who come will get an interview with one of the hiring managers. Here's a map: http://www.l-3com.com/csw/Map/ Here's a plug for L3: they have free breakfast on the first Friday of each month, they pay me more than I am worth, you get every other Friday off, they have a nice cafeteria, the supply closets are full of cool pens and post-it notes, and best of all, there is a chartered bus that leaves from Payson, Orem and Lehi each morning that goes directly to L3, so you don't have to drive. Hey, if they hired *me*, they must really be desperate!
