It's a job seekers market out there, with businesses crying out for workers. Today they were out trying to attract talent to plug their staff shortages. The Ministry of Social Development's Auckland job fair, co-hosted by the Warriors Community Foundation, showcases more than 45 different employers. But whilst more than 2000 jobs were up for grabs, just 800 potential jobseekers turned up. That's two jobs for each candidate. Our reporter Finn Blackwell went along.
Job fairs are popping up all over the place these days, with some suggesting this is a sign of how desperate things are for some employers. There's one at Mt Smart stadium in Auckland today, hosted jointly by Work and Income and the Warriors Community Foundation. MSD's Mark Goldsmith joined Tim Dower.
