This is a press release from Department of Labor and Employment
Secretary of Labor and Employment Rosalinda Dimapilis-Baldoz announced on September 7, 2012, that the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) is preparing to conduct more than 153 job fairs in 15 regions nationwide from October until Christmas 2012.
“Following our earlier announcement that we are conducting more than 40 job fairs nationwide for the month of September, I might as well announce our job fair schedule for the last quarter of the year so that our job seekers can plan and prepare early if they are inclined to try their luck at these job fairs,” said Baldoz.
She said the DOLE will have an average of 51 job fairs a month, or almost two job fairs per day, from October to December. More than half, or 80 of these job fairs will be in Metro Manila. The other half, or 73, will be outside the metropolis, or in the various regions. The fairs would be conducted in accessible venues including city halls, municipal halls, PESO offices, schools, sports gyms, and malls across the 15 regions under the supervision of the Bureau Local Employment and the DOLE regional offices, in coordination with public employment service offices (PESOs).
“I invite all jobseekers, including fresh graduates, and new entrants to the country’s labor force to these job fairs,” Baldoz said.
The region-to-region schedules and venues of the job fairs are as follows:
