The Delhi government will be organising the second ‘Job Fair’ from November 16 to December 9 with an aim to provide employment opportunities to at least ten thousand youth in the Capital.

The first job summit had been organised in July this year and around 21,000 people got jobs in various companies.

“We have made a target of getting around 10,000 unemployed people jobs through this fair. We have approached several companies including LIC which will be participating in the 23-day job fair,” Delhi Labour Minister Gopal Rai told reporters here.

The concluding session of the job fair will be held at Tyagraj Stadium on December 9 where selected applicants will be given offer letters, he added.

The minister said jobs for security guards, attendants, helpers, housekeeping, tele-callers, financial planning advisors, drivers, peons and data entry operators among others, will be offered. Interested applicants can participate in the job fair by registering themselves through www.employment.delhigovt.nic.in till November 15.
