CEBU CITY, Philippines — Over 5,000 job vacancies await job seekers in the region in the upcoming Labor Day Job Fairs slated on May 1, 2023.
The Department of Labor and Employment in Central Visayas (DOLE 7), however, encouraged job seekers to preregister online to avoid being caught in the influx of people who would be joining the activity.
Luchel Taniza, DOLE 7 information officer, told CDN Digital, in a phone interview on Friday, April 21, that there would be two simultaneous job fairs to be conducted in Cebu City and Dumaguete City in Negros Oriental on May 1.
