This recruitment and job interview event brings employers and jobseekers together under one roof, and allows attendees to avail of up to five interviews on the day, subject to meeting eligibility criteria.
"My Department's Careers Service and Employment Service will also provide individuals with information, advice and guidance on a range of training and employment schemes.
