JOB MELA
The YCWA (Young Christian Workers Association) organized a Job mela for the benefit of our
parishioners & those of the neighbouring parishes on the 20th of June, 2010.
The response we got was over whelming, much beyond our expectations. Almost 150 candidates
walked in for the mela where companies collected CVs, conducted interviews, shortlisted & selected candidates.
Well- known companies like Intellenet, LIC & Firstsource & prominent recruitment agencies
like Lobo Staffing Solutions, Telematrix, Workforce Management, Personnel People, etc. participated in the mela & put
up their stalls. The vacancies included jobs for various sectors – IT, BPOs, Insurance, etc. as well as for freshers,
the experienced & jobs at senior management level, thus catering to a wide range of candidates. The participating companies
were satisfied with the quantity as well as the quality of candidates they received.
Mr. Dolphy D’Souza (the owner of Personnel People, a recruitment agency) conducted a
training session for the benefit of the candidates on how they should tackle interviews.
At present, we have about 200 candidates registered with us in our database. The YCWA shortlists
candidates & contacts them on an ongoing basis, as & when openings with companies crop up. Hence we invite all parishioners
looking for jobs (no age bar),to register with us & HELP US HELP YOU.
Encouraged by the good response, the YCWA is planning to hold many more such events that would
help people in their careers, personal investments, etc. We urge all parishioners to take advantage of the platform that we
are offering. It would also be of great help if people join & be a part of the YCWA team & help us in our endeavor
to reach out & help others. YCW meetings are held every Thursday at 8pm on the 1st floor of the Seva Kendra.
