A two-month online job fair kicked off Sunday, offering more than 30,000 positions at 1,250 local companies, Shenzhen Evening News reported.
The job fair was organized by the city’s human resources and social security bureau to stabilize the local labor market, which has suffered severe disruption in the economic stranglehold caused by the novel coronavirus outbreak.
According to the Evening News, local employers that signed up to hire at the job fair are part of the seven industries important to Shenzhen’s economy, namely IT, medical equipment manufacturing and biomedicine, finance, 5G telecommunications, real estate development, advanced manufacturing and logistics.
The job fair, jointly organized by the human resources bureau and three main recruitment websites, offers a series of free online services catered to both employers and jobseekers. It allows employers which have signed up for the fair to release recruitment information and conduct online interviews with job candidates, while letting jobseekers sign up and upload their resume free of charge.
Free head-hunting services will also be provided offline to help connect employers with their target high-caliber professionals.
The Evening News said the online job fair has currently attracted many renowned local enterprises such as BYD, Kingdee, Shenzhen Neptunus Bioengineering, China Merchants Bank, Vanke, Foxconn and SF Express.
Intended companies and jobseekers can sign up on the official website of the human resources bureau: http://hrss.sz.gov.cn/, or at: https://www.51job.com/shenzhen/, the website of one of the organizing recruitering services.
