Job Fair for ICT 2011

The job fair for the ICT sector was organised in 2011 and it was the first job fair targeting the ICT students and companies. In this job fair, the local ICT companies had the chance to introduce their products/services, operations and needs to the students. In the other hand, the students showcased their skills in front of HR representatives from the companies. From this ICT job fair, 12 students managed to become full members at local companies.
