BUTUAN CITY – In celebration of the 90th Founding Anniversary of the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), the regional office in Caraga region will be conducting a Mega Job Fair on December 1, 2023 at Robinsons Place, this city. 

Anchored on the theme, “DOLE@90: Serbisyong Mabilis at Matapat sa Bagong Pilipinas,” more than 1,000 jobs are up for grabs from the 35 local and five overseas employers on Friday.  

A Kadiwa ng Pangulo Para sa Manggagaawa and Livelihood Fair will simultaneously be conducted on the same venue, displaying products of the seven farmer associations all over Caraga, including beneficiaries of the DOLE Integrated Livelihood Program (DILP). 

DOLE Caraga Regional Director Atty. Joffrey M. Suyao, encouraged job seekers, especially fresh graduates, to visit the Mega Job Fair for an opportunity to be Hired-on-the-Spot (HOTS).
