Social services office sponsors two-day job fair
The City Social Services and Development (CSSD) office is sponsoring a two-day job fair at its extension office in Sta. Barbara, Zamboanga City.
A one-stop shop to help process documents of prospective applicants, including passports for those interested to work overseas, has been set up.
CSSD officer Francisco Barredo said they planned the job fair a month ago in line with the city's celebration of its annual Dia De Zamboanga on February 25 to mark the city's 69th Charter foundation day.
The job fair aims "to provide jobs to the unemployed or even employed, if interested to seek other jobs," according to Barredo.
He said most jobs are open to all qualified applicants from professionals down to domestic helpers.
The one-stop shop will avail of the services of government agencies concerned, like the Department of Labor and employment, National Bureau of Investigation, Technical Education and Skills Development Authority, National Statistics Office, Department of Foreign Affairs and others, Barredo said.
Barredo said he went to Manila primarily to invite recruitment agencies there to come to the city, aside from the local recruitment agencies here in the city.
"They're here now, and we also have local government agencies and companies, like Universal Canning, also one in Recodo and others like MPC (Western Mindanao Power) Corp.," Barredo added.
