Gia Linh Investment and Consulting joint Stock Company provides job counseling
and introduces studying opportunities in Japan for students and young workers
in Cao Phong district.
32-year-old Bui Thi Van, from Quang Ngoai hamlet in Hop Phong commune, said she
used to work as a worker for a garment enterprise in Hai Duong province, but
she has been unemployed for almost a year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Coming
to the job fair, she had a chance to meet recruitment units, be updated with
information, and received enthusiastic guidance. Van said she has decided to
work for GGS company located in the Da River Left Bank Industrial Park as it is
not far away from her home and she can earn 7.5 million VND per month or more.
19-year-old Nguyen Thanh Tam, from Bam village in Tay Phong commune, said she
was looking for information about the labour markets of the Republic of Korea
and Japan. Through meeting with the recruitment units, she was briefed about
the type of jobs, occupations, method of recruitment and training, salary and
expense for working overseas.
Six enterprises participated in the job fair, including two local enterprises
and a vocational training institution. More than 11th and 12th graders also
attended the event to learn about vocational training.
According to Bui Anh Tuan, Vice Chairman of the district People's Committee, a
lack of jobs or unstable employment is still common in the locality due to a
high proportion of labourers in the agricultural sector, low skills of workers
and an increasing number of people in need of employment. On average, the
district needs to create jobs for about 1,000 workers and provide vocational
training for 900 people each year.
The organisation of the annual job fair is the main channel providing
information, recruitment targets, and reliable addresses for workers to access
the market and look for a job suitable to their qualifications, capacity and
conditions, he said.
Within the framework of the 2022 job fair, many workers have been either
recruited or registered for suitable vocational training courses, creating a
bridge between enterprises and employees, contributing to generating jobs while
ensuring social security, sustainable poverty reduction and socio-economic
development in the locality.
