Increase Job Opportunities In Difficult Times: Mega Career Expo Jakarta Present For Career Finders

JAKARTA - In recent years, economic uncertainty has become one of the major challenges faced by job seekers. Factors such as inflation, the global economic recession, and the wave of layoffs (PHK) in various sectors have raised concerns among workers, including in Indonesia. In the midst of these conditions, the Mega Career Expo Jakarta is here to offer opportunities for those who want to find work or switch careers in various industries.

Like many other countries, Indonesia is also facing economic pressure due to global and domestic factors. The increase in inflation affects people's purchasing power, while slowing economic growth has an impact on the number of jobs available. Meanwhile, not a few companies are efficient and lead to layoffs, especially in the technology and manufacturing sectors. According to a recent report from the Ministry of Manpower, the number of unemployed in Indonesia in 2024 is estimated to reach around 8.4 million people.

The wave of layoffs that occurred in the technology sector is one of the worst. Several large companies in the field of technology and startups have reduced employees due to difficult economic conditions. This makes many workers, especially those from the technology industry, have to immediately look for new opportunities in different fields or improve their skills to stay competitive in the labor market.

Mega Career Expo Jakarta, which will take place on November 8-9, 2024 at the Senayan Multipurpose Building, Jakarta, is here as a forum that offers various career opportunities from national and multinational companies. More than 40 companies from various industries, such as technology, health, finance, and manufacturing, participated in this event. With the walk-in interview, job seekers have the opportunity to communicate directly with the company and get interviews on the spot.

This event is very relevant to those affected by layoffs or want to find new jobs. In addition, this career exhibition also opens up opportunities for professionals who want to switch to other industries that are more stable or developing. For example, the health sector and digital technology still show growth even in uncertain economic conditions, thus providing many opportunities for job seekers.

In addition, Mega Career Expo also provides other benefits for job seekers in terms of building a professional network. By attending this career exhibition, participants not only have the opportunity to get a job, but can also expand their network by meeting directly with recruiters and professionals from various companies. A wide network can help open the door to future career opportunities, especially in the midst of difficult economic situations.

In the midst of economic uncertainty and challenges in finding work, the Mega Career Expo Jakarta 2024 offers promising solutions for job seekers. With the various opportunities offered, this career exhibition not only helps those affected by layoffs, but also those who want to pursue new careers or improve skills. Mega Career Expo on 8-9 November 2024 at the Senayan Multipurpose Building Cttleya Room, open to the public, ranging from high school/K to S1/S2 graduates, both experienced and inexperienced.
