Out of several hundreds of locals who applied during the Mega Job Fair in Las Piñas City, one hundred and thirty-six successfully got hired, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…
Hundreds of jobseekers were given a fresh start as the city government successfully connected residents to employment opportunities during the Mega Job Fair in Las Piñas.
Las Piñas City Mayor April Aguilar said that the mega job fair themed “Sa Las Piñas, Lahat May Oportunidad” was held at the Robinson’s Place, which highlighted the city’s commitment to inclusive growth, ensuring that every Las Piñero—regardless of background—has access to livelihood opportunities.
Aguilar led the initiative alongside Public Employment Service Office (PESO) head Red Garcia and Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) MuntiParLas Director Jeremiah T. Carlos.
She said that a total of 662 jobseekers registered for the event, including 10 persons with disabilities (PWDs), eight senior citizens, and 90 solo parents—underscoring the city’s inclusive approach to workforce development.
The mayor said that of the total number, 136 applicants were hired on the spot, among them five solo parents.
