*******************************************************

     The Labour Department will hold a large-scale three-day job fair at Yau Tong Community Hall from May 17 to 19. The first day of the recruitment event will focus on vacancies in the retail industry, while vacancies in catering, transport, property management and other industries will be offered on May 18 and 19. Twenty three participating organisations will set up counters and conduct on-the-spot recruitment each day.

     A total of 69 organisations, offering about 4 400 vacancies, will participate in the fair. The vacancies offered cover a wide variety of positions such as station assistant, patient care assistant, shop sales staff, security guard, driver, storekeeper, courier, waiter/waitress, chef, technician, cashier, cleaner and more. Job seekers can find more information on the department's Interactive Employment Service website (www.jobs.gov.hk).

     Around 78 per cent of the vacancies are for full-time jobs. Most vacancies offer monthly salaries ranging from $8,000 to $15,000. About 98 per cent of the vacancies require a Secondary Six education level or below. Around 66 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 register for employment services at the Labour Department's counter.
