The Labour Department (LD) will hold the Job Fair for Middle-aged and Elderly Employment at MacPherson Stadium in Mong Kok on September 22 and 23 to provide many full-time and part-time job vacancies suitable for more mature job seekers.
     
     About 50 organisations will participate in the two-day job fair and offer over 3 800 job vacancies. Around 25 organisations will set up booths and conduct recruitment activities on the spot each day. A wide variety of positions will be offered including building services technical officer, assistant engineer, chef, minibus driver, health service worker, hospital contract operation assistant, technician, production worker, security guard, baker, storekeeper, shop assistant, clerk and customer service officer. Job seekers can find more information on the vacancies on the LD's Interactive Employment Service website (www.jobs.gov.hk).
     
     Around 80 per cent of the vacancies are full-time jobs and most of them offer monthly salaries ranging from $11,000 to $22,000. Over 95 per cent of the vacancies require a Secondary Six education level or below. About 65 per cent are open to job seekers without relevant work experience.
     
     Job seekers can submit job applications during the event and may be selected for on-the-spot interviews. They can also make enquiries on the employment services provided by the LD at its counter inside the venue.
