"So you\u2019ve visited your share of virtual worlds. You\u2019ve taken part in gameplay, and even pursued more informational things by way of an avatar and a digital space. Maybe you\u2019ve given an online college fair a look. Well, now you might be seeking employment post diploma grab. If so, an online job fair may be your next logical step.\nUnisfair, a developer of virtual event services for individual business gatherings and industrial conferences, recently launched an option for corporate recruiters to find prospective employees and interact live, according to Dean Takahashi of VentureBeat. Unisfair is sensing that job fairs will attract a sizable number of visitors seeking work, if for nothing else than user convenience. If the company\u2019s own survey is anything accurate, 64% of 100 human resources managers feel such online services could improve hiring efforts.\nSo far, Unisfair, which earlier this year raised some $10 million in its third investment round, has managed to serve some 400 events to various customers, including tech titans like Cisco and IBM. That is a fairly significant number, to be sure, but the company is no doubt looking to branch out with more options to attract more business, whether in the form of unique, one-party contracts or with many customers.\nThough I consider myself a mild skeptic of virtual worlds and the things that go along with such developments, a job fair, like an academic meetup on the Web, seems like a rather reasonable investment for companies to make. It would at once attract more visitors and allow for more personal interact between companies and people with resumes in hand. A win-win, I\u2019d say."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
