The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) is set to organize a nationwide job fair, with a significant event scheduled in Baguio City. The Baguio leg of this job fair will take place at the SM City Baguio Atrium on January 31, 2025, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. This event aims to connect job seekers with numerous employment opportunities across various sectors.
Patrick Rillorta from DOLE’s Cordillera Administrative Region (DOLE-CAR) emphasized the importance of job seekers being well-prepared. He recommended that attendees bring multiple copies of their documents to be ready for potential interviews on the spot. Rillorta stressed the need for job hunters to be both mentally and physically prepared to seize any interview opportunities that arise.
DOLE regularly organizes such job fairs, aligning them with significant dates like Labor Day, Independence Day, Cordillera Day, and Baguio Day. These events not only provide job opportunities but also feature booths from various government agencies, assisting attendees in obtaining necessary documents.
This job fair represents a crucial opportunity for the unemployed and underemployed in Baguio to explore new career paths and improve their employment prospects.
