KORONADAL CITY, South Cotabato, Feb. 22 (PIA) -- At least 34 job fairs have been scheduled by the Department of Labor and Employment-12 (DOLE-12) and its partners for calendar year 2012. | |||
DOLE-12’s partners include private and public colleges and universities, Public Employment Service Offices (PESO), and local government units. | |||
A schedule of job fair activity released by DOLE-12 yesterday noted that five are set this month while six will be held in March. | |||
The remaining job fairs in February will be held on February 24 at Notre Dame of Kidapawan College in Kidapawan City; on February 27 at Notre Dame of Midsayap College; and on February 29 at South Christian College in Midsayap -- all in North Cotabato. | |||
In March, job fairs will be held at the Municipal Plaza of Banga, South Cotabato (March 1); at Notre Dame of Tacurong College in Tacurong City (March 12 – 13); STI College in Koronadal City (March 15); Golden State College, General Santos City (March 18); Notre Dame University in Cotabato City (March 21); and University of Southern Mindanao in Kabacan, Cotabato (March 21). | |||
In April, when the bulk of new graduates join the job-seeking population, three job fairs are planned: at Notre Dame of Dadiangas University in General Santos City on April 4; St. Alexius College in Koronadal City on April 27; and at Kidapawan City Gymnasium on April 27. | |||
Major job fairs are also planned for the Labor Day on May 1, namely: at Protech Center in Koronadal City, at Robinson’s Plaza in General Santos City, and South Seas Mall in Cotabato City. | |||
Another fair will be held at the Municipal Hall of Pigcawayan, in North Cotabato on May 12. | |||
Jobs available in these fairs are for local and overseas employment. | |||
As in the previous job fairs, DOLE-12 advised applicants to bring several copies of their pertinent documents such transcript of records, training certificates, passports (for foreign employment),and others. | |||
During the recent meeting of the Regional Coordinating Committee (RCC) here, DOLE-12 Regional Director Chona Mantilla, advised job seekers as well as graduating students to register with the PESO in their LGU. | |||
“Part of our employment facilitation thrust is skills registration program, which our field office heads are concentrating,” she said. | |||
She added that one of the major uses of the job skills registry is to fit labor supply with the needs of companies. | |||
In this way, she said, more applicants may be hired on the spot because the companies that will be invited to specific job fairs are those that need workers that are available in the particular areas based on the skills registry. | |||
Two job fairs each are planned for June and July, one in August, four in September, three in November, and three in December. | |||
