Aloha to Illinois Recruiters,

In a previous life, I was a member of the Chicago Technical Recruiters Network (TRN) in association with the Terra-Starr technical job fair. I haven't been to Chicago in a couple years, but proud to say I have many friends, clients and associates in the great state of Illinois.

If any of y'all are going to the ASA Conference in San Diego, Oct 22 -25, please stop by the SmartSearch booth and say hi.

Thank you Thomas for inviting me to join.
