Destination Ghana
Image A job fair in Ghana – Career Destinations - is set to bring Employers, Professionals and Training providers together in Accra

By Tina Boadi

From February 16th to 17th, the Accra International Conference Centre will play host to the first ever “Career Destinations”job and recruitment fair. Organised by Citi 97.3fm with partners TV3, Ernst & Young, and the Business and Financial Times, this event is set to provide a much needed platform that will bring together job seekers, professionals, employers and training providers.

Pre-Screened Talent

ImageThe ever increasing pool of graduates in the country has created a challenge for employers tasked by their organisations to identify the real cream of the talent pool, while the time involved in effectively selecting talented and well-deserving candidates can be onerous.

According to Samuel Attah-Mensah, Managing Director of commercial radio station Citi FM, key sponsors for the event, Career Destinations will offer employers a managed solution to identifying and selecting from a large talent pool.

“We are encouraging people who are interested in participating to post their CVs on our website.  The screening process will be overseen by Ernst & Young, Ghana and applicants will be matched to a range of job opportunities with our participating employers.”

For organizations that take part, Career Destinations will bring together a diverse selection of motivated and eager candidates that include graduates, undergraduates, people looking to change careers and Ghanaians resident outside the country. The pre-selected candidates will be scheduled for one-on-one interviews with the recruiting corporations

Interviews and Services

For candidates, Career Destinations can offer an ideal opportunity to meet potential Ghanaian employers genuinely seeking talent to fill their vacancies.  The organizers are planning additional services, which will include seminars on skills development and presentations by training providers, giving further information and support to job seekers.  Those attending can also take advantage of one-on-one advice from CV specialists and expert advisors offering guidance with career choices.

Sponsors and Participants

Participating companies include Zenith Bank, SG-SSB, Guinness Ghana, Coca-Cola, Fidelity Bank and Areeba.
