JobsDB.com Career Expo 2009


Went to the JobsDB Career Fair this morning. There wasnt a big crowd perhaps because we went early. Among those employers who are present at the fair includes Singapore Police Force, Navy, SBS Transit, Comfort Delgro, MediaCorp, SG recruiters, and several financial planning companies like AIA, Prudential etc...

Some of the companies didnt have suitable openings for us. Yet, somehow we still managed to apply abt 20 positions, of which most of the companies didnt even have a physical booth at the fair. We applied for them through the online station where we could just scan the barcode of our registered card and perform a quick application, meaning that we didnt even need to prepare cover letters. Thank goodness!

Hopefully, we wont need to wait long to be called up for interviews. But looking at the job market, things are not promising. the news reported that the economy might take 2-3 years to recover instead of the orginally estimated 1 year recession. But to despair now is useless. So, yes, yes, I am going to start sending out resumes again.

By the way, I managed to spot a rainbow outside my window today. The saying goes that you can't spot rainbow without rain. So I hope the 'rain' will go off soon and a beautiful sight shall await in front of us.
