It’s getting closer.

Two weeks from today, we’re back at St Andrews Hall for our next Pink Slip Party.

The kids are back in school, so let’s go ahead and get rolling…

And it’s going to be a good one.

Back on March 13, 2013 (3/13/13), we had our first Pink Slip Party of the year, and it was amazing.

More than seven hundred people came together at St Andrews Hall to help people find jobs in the metro Detroit information technology industry.

Over 100 recruiters and hiring managers were in attendance looking to do just that.

You can read recaps of that event here – http://www.ITinTheD.com/5084/the-31313-pink-slip-party-recap/ or here – http://blog.thedetroithub.com/2013/03/19/it-in-the-d-made-job-hunting-awesome-at-st-andrews-hall/

Things are shaping up for another great event on 9/19.  Looking forward to seeing everyone there.

Details are here on the site: http://www.ITinTheD.com/meet/, on our Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/ITintheD or over on Meetup at http://meetup.ITinTheD.org, or you can read about it over on the CBS Detroit website here: http://detroit.cbslocal.com/2013/09/04/ITintheD-org-sets-another-pink-slip-party/
