The Labour Department (LD) will hold a large-scale job expo for elderly and rehabilitation services at MacPherson Stadium on July 18 and 19 to enhance job seekers' understanding of the industry and assist employers to recruit talent.
A total of 40 organisations, offering over 1 800 vacancies, will participate in the two-day expo. The vacancies offered cover a wide variety of positions such as physiotherapist, occupational therapist, nurse, care worker, health worker, clerk, programme worker, customer service assistant, general service assistant, meal delivery worker and more. Job seekers can find more information on the LD's Interactive Employment Service website (www.jobs.gov.hk). Moreover, there are six training bodies introducing training course information.
Around 80 per cent of the vacancies are full-time jobs. Most vacancies offer monthly salaries ranging from $11,000 to $19,000. About 90 per cent of the vacancies require a Secondary Six education level or below. Around 81 per cent are open to job seekers without relevant work experience, and many vacancies are suitable for young people and secondary school graduates.
Job seekers can submit applications on the spot and may be selected for on-site interviews. They can also make enquiries on employment services at the LD's counter at the venue.
The job expo will be held from 11am to 5.30pm at MacPherson Stadium, 1/F, 38 Nelson Street, Mong Kok, Kowloon. Admission is free.
