HOTEL SUITE INFORMATION

To provide sufficient interviewing space and to comply with the APA’s policy on discouraging job interviews in sleeping rooms, suites will be available for rent by schools using the APA Placement Service.

This year we have a sufficient number of suites available and they will be rented on a first-come, first-served basis. Each school will be limited to one suite rental. Suites are subject to a 12.5% tax per night. Check-in time is 4:00 p.m. and check-out time is noon. Deadline to cancel a guaranteed reservation without penalty is 72 hours prior to arrival.

For information about the suites and to receive the appropriate rental forms, please contact Linda Smallbrook at the APA National preferably through email at lindas@udel.edu, with the words “suite rental” in the subject line. If email is not an option you may call 302-831-1113.

Each school renting a suite will be required to fill out a Registration For Placement Interview Form and a Suite Rental Form and return these forms in a timely manner complete with payment to Linda Smallbrook at the National Office (fax: 302-831-3372). After completion of paperwork and payment, suite confirmation numbers will be sent out in mid December. This year you will need to pay for the suite with a credit card only.

The deadline to make a reservation for a suite is December 3, 2007, although we cannot guarantee that any suites will be available at that late date.

Please note: APA policy prohibits conducting interviews in hotel bedrooms. Some suites this year have Murphy beds. A few others have beds in the same room as the seating area; these will be provided with screens that can be placed around the front of the bed. If you have one of these suites, you are asked to comply with the policy by putting away the Murphy bed, or placing the screens around the bed area, each day prior to any interviews.
