Can some bright young thing tell me what this expression means in the context of technology firms recruiting staff.

Many thanks, David

Employers trawling around the Universities' job fairs etc and giving their presentations. i.e. delivering jobs to graduates rather than grads going to the shop to get one themselves

They're a big waste of time anyway.

Just an excuse for HR people to visit big cities and flirt with students....

So true

and to think, you too could be fast tracked for a promising career in a lab earning less than 30k a year....

Don't knock them.

My son got a great job out of attending one of these.

He went having done some homework on the companies attending, got the top job at his target company, a great career and they put him through another degree for free to maximise his qualifications so he's well set for life.

And he wasn't the only one frrom his uni either.
