JOB-SEEKERS CAN REGISTER WITH THE OFFICES NEAREST TO THE IR HOMES WHILE EMPLOYERS CAN CONTACT THE OFFICES BY TELEPHONE TO GIVE PARTICULARS OF VACANT POSTS, TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT AND OTHER REQUIREMENTS.
+VACANCIES ARE DISPLAYED AT ALL OFFICES OF THE LES WHERE JOB-SEEKERS CAN MAKE THEIR OWN PRELIMINARY SELECTIONS,+ MR YEUNG SAID.
+ SUITABLE CANDIDATES WILL ALSO BE SELECTED FROM REGISTERED JOB-SEEKERS FOR INTRODUCTION TO PROSPECTIVE EMPLOYERS.
+ BUT WHETHER THE EMPLOYER OFFERS EMPLOYMENT TO A CANDIDATE OR WHETHER THE CANDIDATE ACCEPTS THE OFFER IS ENTIRELY-VOLUNTARY FOR BOTH PARTIES.+
LAST YEAR, THE MAJORITY OF THE JOBS HANDLED FELL INTO THREE MAIN OCCUPATION GROUPS CLERICAL AND RELATED JOBS, SERVICE JOBS, AND PRODUCTION AND TRANSPORT JOBS.
JOB-SEEKERS WHO POSSESS POST-SECONDARY OR PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATIONS MAY APPROACH THE DEPARTMENT'S HIGHER EDUCATION EMPLOYMENT SERVICE WHICH OPERATES FROM TWO OFFICES -- ONE ON HONG KONG ISLAND AND THE OTHER IN KOWLOON.
MR YEUNG ADDED THAT TO FURTHER IMPROVE ITS SERVIE TO THE PUBLIC, THE LOCAL EMPLOYMENT SERVICE HAD RECENTLY INSTALLED A NEW FACSIMILE SYSTEM WHICH ENSURED THAT VACANCY NOTIFICATIONS WERE CIRCULATED QUICKLY TO SPEED UP THE PLACEMENT PROCESS.
