Job Fair (16 - 18 Apr'2010)

We went to Job Fair last Friday, 1st day of the fair. Thought of avoiding crowd during weekend and also thought early bird like us will definitely catch a 'fat' worm. Mana tau the moment we reached (sharped at 10am), we saw people everywhere at the convention hall. A long queue already being formed for those who already registered online. And those who are yet to register, they got to fill up the form at another counter before checking in.

I'm not sure the purpose of 'checking in' to the fair which had created human jammed at the entrance. So I asked one of the event organizer crew who were helping to view the sms confirmation code and gave a sticker to paste on before entering the hall. But too bad, I still don't get him.

There were over 100 companies participated and set up their booth at the fair. I was happily going through booth by booth, checking with the staff for job opportunities. Hmmmm...... I would say the vacancies are mostly for field like engineering, finance & accounting, HR, sales & marketing. Oh no, I hardly find a company that are looking for procurement/purchasing, planning position &#@%. What a disappointment fair to me! Haizzzzz.......

However I just dropped in my CV to those company that I wish to work for, hoping they will still remember to call me when their are suitable vacancy in the future.

Finally early birds like us brought back some free gifts like bag, notepad, high quality ball pen, post it note, kiwi shoes polisher & disposable hand glove too .... ha ha.
