Oh.. well, yes. At a job fair you have to show off as much as possible
within a couple of seconds... not the right place for me :-)

But, a company going to a job fair in the US and expecting people there
to be fluent in their local language is kind of weird. The USians are
not exactly known for their fluency in different languages...
