To meet the growing demand for jobs for Filipinos, the Department of Tourism (DOT), in cooperation with industry player JobsDB Philippines, held the 4th Trabaho sa Turismo Job Fair last May 22 and 23 at the SMX Convention Center at SM Mall of Asia Complex. Along with over 15,000 jobseekers vying for over 20,000 job vacancies at the event, DOT Secretary Joseph Ace Durano was also present to encourage and support both the employers and the applicants. Sec. Durano and JobsDB Philippines are confident that there is a remarkable number of competent workers that can take jobs in many fields, especially in the promising tourism industry.
This job fair in Manila was the second half of a two-part event, the first of which was held at the SM City Cebu Trade Hall where 8,598 job openings at different companies were presented to the over 6,000 jobseekers that participated last March 13 and 14. |
