The Labour Department (LD) will hold the Turning a New Page Job Fair at MacPherson Stadium in Mong Kok on October 20 and 21 to provide a large number of vacancies from various industries for job seekers.
About 48 organisations will participate in the two-day job fair and offer over 3 000 quality vacancies. Around 24 organisations will set up booths and conduct recruitment activities on the spot each day. A wide variety of positions will be offered including accounting clerk, flight operations officer, customer services representative, information engineer, lifeguard, bartender, health worker, room attendant, security guard and kitchen helper. Job seekers can find more information on the LD's Interactive Employment Service website (www.jobs.gov.hk).
Around 81 per cent of the vacancies offered are full-time jobs. Most of them offer monthly salaries ranging from $11,000 to $22,000. About 96 per cent of the vacancies require a Secondary Six education level or below. Around 63 per cent are open to job seekers without relevant work experience.
Job seekers can submit job applications during the event and may be selected for on-the-spot interviews. They can also make enquiries on the employment services provided by the LD at its counter inside the venue.
The job fair will be held from 11am to 5.30pm at 1/F, MacPherson Stadium, 38 Nelson Street, Mong Kok (near Mong Kok MTR Station Exit E2).
