2. For each such vacancy, the recruitment resource(s) utilized to fill the vacancy (including, if applicable, organizations entitled to notification pursuant to Section 73.2080(c)(1)(ii) of the new EEO Rule, which should be separately identified), identified by name, address, contact person and telephone number;

3. The recruitment source that referred the hiree for each full-time vacancy during the Applicable Period;

4. Data reflecting the total number of persons interviewed for full-time vacancies during the Applicable Period and the total number of interviewees referred by each recruitment source utilized in connection with such vacancies: and

4. Job Fair:

KLKN-TV co-sponsored a job fair with the Lincoln Area Broadcasters group August 7, 2008 at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Lincoln, Nebraska. The job fair was attended by 36 interested individuals that registered with a Lincoln Broadcasters Job Fair information sheet and/or resume. It is estimated another 10-15 people attended the job fair but did not complete the information sheet. KLKN-TV was involved in a meaningful role with the hosting of the job fair throughout the preparatory process/meetings for the job fair and ending with a follow-up meeting to discuss the positives of the job fair and where improvements can be made. Steve Anderson, Business Manager, was the Chairman of the committee that organized the job fair. Minutes of these meetings are kept in the business office's EEO file. A broadly rotated promotional spot for the job fair ran on KLKN-TV and was also widely promoted by other members of the Lincoln Area Broadcasters group. This group included the 2 major radio groups and 2 television stations in the Lincoln market. Also participating with this Job Fair this year was a radio group from Nebraska City. The KLKN-TV booth at the job fair was manned at all times by 2 managers with decision making power for the station (Business Manager, Local Sales Manager, News Director, Operations Manager, and Promotions Manager).
