For a Mom who has been off from the corporate world for more than three years, looking for a job is really a hard one. It is really true that looking a job is not easy and I have been hunting one for quite some time already and I haven’t landed to any at all, yet. That’s perhaps because of my reservations concerning my kids, so for the meantime I stopped looking for a job.

Fortunate things happen as I was able to catch the recently concluded Nationwide Labor Day Job Fair in SM City Fairview. It was a nationwide job fair event happened in different selected malls of SM. The event has indeed made a huge impact for job hunters. There were quite a number of applicants who visited the said fair. The mall was already crowded but the applicants made it even more crowded. At over a thousand applicants were there lined up and waiting to be interviewed by personnel from different companies and employers. What’s great with SM City Fairview is that it is accessible by different places like Caloocan City, Quezon City and nearby areas of Bulacan.

This Nationwide Job Fair was hosted by SM Supermalls together with the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) and Public Employment Service Office (PESO) on a Labor Day holiday with the intention of providing opportunities for newly graduates and jobseekers. SM Supermalls continues to make this effort to help the growing number of Filipino workforce land a job.

The applicants were just eager enough to land a job and they are persistent no matter how long the line it is. Good thing that the SM City Fairview activity center is just spacious enough to accommodate quite a number. Though their feet and legs are aching standing in the line, they are still thankful that they are not sweating.
