Allana Mitchell, recruitment Manager of Qualfon, said that on the spot interviews will be conducted.
“What we will be doing is ensuring that you fit the profile for what we’re looking for.”Mitchell said that applicants are expected to have at least completed secondary education.
Qualfon executives will be conducting on the spot interviews at the Career Fair, and those persons selected for employment are likely to begin working as early as Monday, the two executives said.
Regional Chairman Rennis Morian commended Qualfon and said that he was very happy to be part of the Process.
Morian said that in another fortnight, he would be engaging persons in the agricultural sector for development in agriculture and Infrastructure with the view to creating more employment in Linden and Region Ten.
