Cordillera - The Department of Labor and Employment - Cordillera (DOLE-CAR) had announced that there will be around 14,300 jobs available for those who are looking for employment whether local or overseas employment on May 1, during the celebration of Labor Day. 

DOLE-CAR Director Exequiel De Guzman said that there are 12,300 overseas jobs and 2,370 local jobs available during the job fair which will be held at Baguio City High School main campus. 

De Guzman, in an interview with local media, urged jobseekers to avail themselves of the pre-registration service to prepare them in advance to know which employer or job should they  apply. 

Venue of the pre-registration is at the Public Employment Service Office (PESO) located at the 2nd Floor of the Baguio City Hall from 8:00 am to 5 pm from April 26 - 28.

De Guzman also raised hopes that many jobseekers will be hired on the spot which he believes will prove the success of the job fair. 

He also asked jobseekers not to be selective when applying for a job instead they should try to apply to several employers as much as possible.  They should bring more of their job application requirements. 

In addition to the job fair, De Guzman also said there will be seminars to be conducted to help Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) entrepreneurs to be spearheaded by participating government agencies.
