DOLE
From the Department of Labor and Employment
Secretary of Labor and Employment Rosalinda Dimapilis-Baldoz yesterday said 107 job fairs around the country await jobseekers this March as she announced the Department of Labor and Employment’s (DOLE’s) job fairs for the month.
“At the onset of summer and as graduation time draws near, my advice once again to jobseekers and graduating students is to be ready to visit and participate in the DOLE’s job fairs,” said Baldoz.
The conduct of job fairs and their announcement in advance have been the DOLE’s employment facilitation strategy to bring jobs closer to jobseekers, especially in the regions.
“By visiting the DOLE’s job fairs, graduates and jobseekers will spend less money and minimal effort to find a job since the DOLE already gathers both local and overseas employers all in one venue,” Baldoz explained.
She further said the available jobs in the job fairs are mostly in the following industries: agribusiness, construction, IT/ Business Process Management, health and wellness, hotel, restaurant and tourism, wholesale and retail trade, banking and finance, mining, transport and logistics, manufacturing, real estate, power and utilities, and education, which are all identified in the new Project JobsFit: DOLE 2020.
