The University of Macau’s (UM) Faculty of Science and Technology (FST) recently held an annual career fair, in order to provide a platform for students and alumni to understand the job market in Macao and overseas. This year, twenty-seven high-tech companies, public organizations and government departments attended the fair.
Career talks and career booths were organized to enable interaction between participating organizations and students, as well as to provide students with more information about the job market. In the twenty-six talk sessions, representatives of participating organizations discussed job vacancies, organizational structures, on-the-job training opportunities, and economic climate in Macao’s neighboring regions. Fourteen organizations participated in the booth sessions, where students discussed more details with the representatives and submitted resumes.
