Malaysia Career Fairs in Feb & Mar 2010

More universities and colleges in Malaysia are organizing career fairs nowadays. It is a value-added service provided to their graduates and final year students.

For employers, this is an opportunity to hire and fill up their entry-level positions. The investment in renting and setting up a career booth varies. With a standard shell scheme booth that comes with 3m x 3m panels, company name displayed on booth, company name listed in the program book as well as their career fair website plus meals can be as low as RM450 per day. But usually with such package, the fair will run for at least two days, like in the case of Uniten, OR three days, in the case of UKM and USM.

Manpower is needed to man the booth. Usually personnel from the Human Resource department or the hiring department will be stationed at the booth for it only makes sense that job seekers can talk directly to someone from the company that is able to provide all the required information about the job and the company.

But, what if you are facing a budget and manpower constraint? Are there any alternatives? Good news is yes.
