SID's job placement room where employers can list positions
available and meet with conference attendees seeking employment.
Also, individuals seeking employment may post a position-wanted
notice. The job placement room will be open from 8:00 am to 5:00
pm, Tuesday through Thursday.
Are

A representative of a
mailing service will be available on Thursday and Friday, May

Do
I have to be a member of SID to attend the Symposium or
Exhibition?
Registration for any
technical function at SID '07 requires the registrant be a SID
member at the time of the Conference in May. Technical functions
include any seminar, symposium or business conference function.
Exhibits-only registration does not require membership. Please
