POEA sets overseas jobs fair in Dumaguete City

DUMAGUETE CITY – The Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA) in cooperation with Dumaguete City’s Public Employment Service Office (PESO) will be holding an overseas job fair in this capital on Friday.

Dumaguete-PESO chief Ma. Socorro Mira disclosed Monday that on the same day, there will also be an e-Registration side by side with the job fair, to be held at the Robinsons Place shopping mall in Dumaguete.

The twin activities will be held from 8 in the morning until 5 p.m., she said.

According to Mira, around 12 overseas companies will be participating in the job fair that will offer numerous jobs for those aspiring to apply for overseas employment.

The e-Registration, meanwhile, is the POEA’s online registration facility for Filipinos looking for a job abroad through the agency’s Government Placement Branch, said Mira.

This is the 2nd job fair to be held in Dumaguete through the PESO this month.

Just last week, the PESO in this capital city also conducted a local job fair as part of the celebration of the city’s charter day anniversary.

Some 20 employers/businesses joined that job fair, with an initial of about eight to ten applicants that were hired on the spot, said Mira. (PNA)
