With the increasing number of investors coming to Cebu and a noted increase in available jobs in the province, Jobstreet.com will hold a job fair at SM City Cebu starting Feb-25 to fill in around 1,200 available jobs in 547 companies in Central Visayas.
Jobstreet marketing director Yoda Buyco said they are holding Cebu Career Hub in partnership with SM City Cebu until May 25.
The job fair will feature four top companies in Cebu every Friday for instant job processing and hiring as well as seminars on how to get hired when applying for a specific company every Saturday.
Buyco said the Cebu Career Hub was held first in Cebu where they see a lot of job requirements from different industries and fields including the business process outsourcing, information technology, finance, manufacturing and engineering.
“This serves as an answer to DOLE (Department of Labor and Employment) Secretary Rosalinda Dimapiliz-Baldoz when she said that we have to invest in our country's resource, our human resource to make us more competitive and employable. Cebu Career Hub is a way to help further empower our Cebuano job seekers,” Buyco said.
According to Buyco, there are 1,200 jobs from 547 employers in Central Visayas, mostly in Cebu, that job seekers can apply instantly every Friday or through their Job Board which they will also show at the booth located at the 2nd floor of SM City Cebu.
“In the whole of Vismin area, we have a total of 300,000 job seekers who can have access to the eight million jobs posted in our website which are located in all our areas including Malaysia, Singapore, India, Indonesia, Japan and the Philippines,” she said.
Out of the eight million jobs, three million are located in the Philippines from 15,000 employers.
Buyco added that 40 percent of the total number of job postings in the country are from BPO companies which need a lot of agents to handle voice calls and some managerial and supervisory positions.
“In Cebu I could say that 40 percent of job postings are also from BPO companies,” she said.
