Foreign Chambers Employment Expo 2008
April 26, 2008
Most recent graduates are probably happy that school has come to an end but when the graduation rites are over, the reality starts to kick in. Getting a job in this country is not easy.
In January this year, the Philippines recorded a high 7.4% unemployment rate, according to the National Statistics Office. Although this was already a 0.4% nominal improvement from last year, it still translates to more than 2.7 million FIlipinos out of work.
But this does not mean jobs are not really available. In fact, more than 3,000 jobs in foreign-owned firms in the country are up for grabs in a two-day employment expo at the Glorietta Activity Center in Ayala, Makati.
