AirAsia, Sunrise, Honda & MAA among the exhibitors at the upcoming Better Job Fair

21 Dec 2010 Kuala Lumpur | Road to Career Expo 2011 (CE2011) is heating up with the participations from big industry players in Malaysia, as AirAsia Bhd is joining many luminaries in the industry as one of the exhibitors.

To be held from 18th to 20th March, 2011 in KL Convention Centre (KLCC), and organised by JobsDB Malaysia Sdn Bhd, Career Expo 2011 has already got commitments from AirAsia, Sunrise Bhd, Honda Malaysia Sdn Bhd, Pharmaniaga Bhd, MAA Assurance Bhd, & Smart E-Learning Network. This will be the first time AirAsia is joining the CE2011.

“We are proud that Asia’s biggest low cost airline is joining us for the fair,” says Vincent Koo, Executive Director of JDB Holdings Limited, JDB’s parent company. “That too fresh from its CEO winning the Forbes’ Businessman of the year award.”

Following the success of its Career Expo 2010, held earlier in May this year, exhibitors and participants alike can expect The Better Job Fair next year to be still as Efficient and Effective being a perfect matching platform for both parties.

For Career Expo 2010, the event saw participations from the likes of Maybank Bhd, HSBC, RHB, ecmLibra, Allianz Malaysia Bhd and OSK Investment Bank, Telekom Malaysia Bhd, Maxis Communications Bhd, DiGi Telecommunications Sdn Bhd, HeiTech Padu Bhd, Silverlake Axis Sdn Bhd, Mimos Bhd and Scicom (MSC) Bhd among others.

CE2011 will follow the tradition of its previous fair, and utilise state of the art technology which is the first and perhaps the only job fair in the country that is paperless. “The fair is powered by a proven and world class software solution allowing seamless process from registration to job application,” Koo noted, adding that job candidates will be given “bar-coded” registration card and all they need to do to apply for a position is to get “scanned”.

Job candidates’ resumes would already be pre-loaded in JDB’s portal and the scanning process will automatically upload the candidates’ resume into the exhibitors’ database. This will allow both the candidates and participating employers can walk in and out of the job fair paperless!.
