Shaping Ideal Careers

JobsCentral Career Fair 2010

This year the JobsCentral Career Fair will be held on 2 & 3 October 2010, at Suntec Singapore. Below is information about the event from the organizers.

The JobsCentral Career & Learning Fair is the must-visit event for serious jobseekers and education-minded people in Singapore since its inauguration in 2006. The overwhelming reception from both the public and exhibitors has helped the annual career fair to grow dramatically in scale. With its primary focus on employment and strong education twist, the JobsCentral Career & Learning Fair 2010 serves as an ideal platform for job and education seekers to meet potential employers and training organisations in a casual yet professional setting.

This career fair is held in partnership with the five polytechnics in Singapore, and aims to attract 55,000 jobseekers with the majority of them having at least diplomas and degrees. The Fair will be held at the popular Suntec City Convention Hall which is highly accessible and has great traffic flow. Our multi-pronged marketing approach promises extensive promotion to the target audience. It is therefore an excellent platform for employers to conduct recruitment and branding among professional jobseekers in Singapore.

We are proud to announce that the Guest-of-Honour for the JobsCentral Career & Learning Fair 2010 will be Mrs Josephine Teo, Assistant Secretary-General, National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) and Advisor, Young NTUC. Exhibitors will have the opportunity to network and mingle with the Guest-of-Honour and other VIPs during the Opening Ceremony and the entourage tour.
