Over 1 800 vacancies on offer at Embracing New Opportunities Job Fair
*********************************************************************
     The Labour Department (LD), together with the Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions Occupational Retraining Centre (HKFTUORC), will hold a large-scale job fair at MacPherson Stadium in Mong Kok on July 20 and 21. Vacancies in catering, property management, transport and other industries will be offered. The HKFTUORC will also set up a booth at the venue to introduce training courses and other information.
 
     Around 40 organisations will participate in the two-day job fair and offer over 1 800 vacancies. About twenty organisations will set up booths and conduct recruitment activities on the spot each day. The vacancies cover a wide variety of positions including shop assistant, clerk, customer service officer, care worker, technician, security guard, driver, storekeeper, equestrian assistant, programmer, waiter/waitress, chef and cashier. 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 are full-time jobs. Most vacancies offer monthly salaries ranging from $10,000 to $20,000. About 98 per cent of the vacancies require a Secondary Six education level or below. Around 61 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). Admission is free, with the final admission time at 5pm each day.
