Attend Job Fairs & Get Hired!

Job-hunting can be stressful and time consuming.

How to avoid these hassles? Why not attend a job or career fair! In a job fair, you don't have to go to different locations to scout for job opportunities. You simply need to submit your resume to several companies and then wait and pray that you get called for an interview. If you are super lucky, you may even get hired on the spot.

But don’t get too relaxed yet. With too many applicants lining up during job fairs, the competition becomes stiffer.

So bear in mind the following tips that will give you an edge over the other applicant and may increase your chances of getting hired.

Create an impressive resume. You need multiple copies since you want to submit your document to as many companies. Make sure that your resume looks professional and is complete with vital information that an HR is looking for such as work experiences, competency skills, trainings attended, educational background, etc. 

Dress appropriately. You want to be taken seriously so go to job fairs donning a simple and decent attire. Men should avoid round neck shirts while girls should not wear shorts or skimpy skirts. Females should also stick to light make-up.

Prepare to be interviewed. If you want to be hired on the spot, then you should be ready for the interview. Take time to practice usual HR questions so you don’t get nervous and fidgety during interviews.

Bring a ballpen. It may be embarrassing if you are applying for a job and then even have to borrow the pen of the recruitment personnel. Mind you, many applicants forget to bring a pen during job fairs.


Stay cool even if you have to deal with a huge crowd and long lines by bringing a fan, a bottle of water and some snacks with you. This way, you will avoid looking haggard when it’s time to speak to the recruitment staff.

Working Abroad and Placement Fee Reminders for OFWs



The notion that working abroad is a costly process is so outdated. If your desire to be an overseas Filipino worker (OFW) is being hindered by the fear of high placement fees, then you should read the following reminders from the POEA:

There are overseas job positions where collection of placement fees is prohibited. These professions include domestic or household workers, caregivers and seafarers.

Hans Leo Cacdac, POEA chief also said payment of placement fees is not required for OFWs bound for the United States (using H2B visa), Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, and the Netherlands.

Who needs to pay placement fees? Other professions and countries not specified above but with the condition that it will only be equivalent to the worker’s one month's salary abroad. It should only be paid upon so signing of an employment contract. Aspiring OFWs are reminded to apply to licensed recruitment agencies and to demand official receipt as proof of payment.
