SHAH ALAM, Aug 21 — A total of 4,698 job seekers attended interviews at the Jamin Kerja Career Carnival organized by the Social Security Organization (Socso) in conjunction with the Selangor Keluarga Tour of Malaysian Aspirations (AKM) here.
Selangor Socso Employment Services head Syaddad Marop said that of the total, 188 individuals managed to secure a job, 3,400 individuals were accepted to attend a second interview, while another 996 failed to find a job.
“For those who failed, do not despair; they still have a chance to get a job. I recommend that they register and update their profiles on the MyFutureJobs portal where later, if there is a match, the job seeker will be personally contacted by the employer to attend an interview,” he told Bernama.
The carnival has matched job seekers with 90 employers covering 23,159 vacancies offered during its three days since August 19.
Organized by the Ministry of Entrepreneurs and Cooperatives Development, the Selangor AKM Tour themed “Usahawan Keluarga Malaysia Penggerak Ekonomi Negara” (Malaysian Family Entrepreneurs Driving the National Economy) features about 100 booths set up by small and medium enterprises. – Bernama
