My year it was at what is now the Intercontinental Hotel on Michigan Avenue in Chicago. So, there were all these people, laughing, happily looking for old friends, finding the bar, etc., then there were those of us behind the potted palms with copies of our resumes standing ready to pop out and try to glad hand someone, anyone. I don't know if a separate meeting is better or not, I hope it is. Back in the day I was hoping to get into law school teaching, the “hiring hall” was held during the AALS convention.
