Public invited to visit Job Matching Services exhibition
Members of the public are invited to visit a two-day exhibition on the Job Matching Services organised by the Labour Department on Friday (January 17) and Saturday.
The exhibition is aimed at promoting the free job matching services of the department to both employers and job-seekers. It will be opened daily from 10 am to 6.30 pm at the West Bridge, second floor, The Landmark, Central.
It will include display panels introducing the job matching services of the Job Matching Programme (JMP) and the Job Matching Centre. Leaflets on these services will be distributed to visitors.
On-the-spot registration service will be provided to employers who wish to make use of the free recruitment service offered by the JMP or job-seekers wishing to join the JMP.
Vacancies registered under the Supplementary Labour Scheme will also be available. Job-seekers who wish to apply for these vacancies can register on the spot.
The JMP was first introduced in April 1995 to provide special employment assistance to unemployed local workers. The programme is now operating at nine Local Employment Services offices.
