MAKATI CITY — Jobseekers in Makati will have a fresh opportunity to connect with potential employers as the Makati Public Employment Service Office (PESO) holds a job fair at the Bangkal Community Complex on Saturday, October 3, 2026. The event, which runs from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM, is part of the city’s broader “Bonding Muna sa Barangay: Paglingkuran ang Bayan Caravan,” a community-focused initiative that brings essential government services directly to residents.
A Convenient One-Stop Shop for Employment
The job fair consolidates recruitment activities, government assistance, and application support into a single accessible venue along Hen. V. Lim Street, corner P. Santos Street. Jobseekers can expect to meet with participating employers, submit their credentials, and participate in initial interviews. Beyond recruitment, the event offers practical support services designed to streamline the application process. Applicants can avail of free resume printing and receive assistance from the Social Security System (SSS) on-site, making it easier to complete requirements in one visit.
How to Participate and What to Bring
Interested applicants are encouraged to register online in advance through the link provided by Makati PESO. Pre-registration helps ensure a smoother experience on the day of the event. Jobseekers should bring an updated resume, a valid ID, and other necessary documents to facilitate faster processing. The fair is open to both residents and non-residents of Makati. The timing of the Bangkal job fair complements the city’s ongoing employment efforts. In late September, Makati PESO held a two-day Mega Job Fair at Ayala Malls Circuit, which featured nearly 10,000 local and overseas vacancies from 57 companies. The Bangkal event follows a series of community-based job fairs that have already connected thousands of jobseekers with employers across Metro Manila this year.
A City Committed to Employment Access
Makati’s employment programs have assisted over 8,000 jobseekers through referrals and placements from January to August 2026, with job fairs generating hundreds of additional hires. The city also continues to support short-term employment through the Pantawid Trabaho Program and provides practical work experience through the Makati Internship Program. By bringing recruitment activities directly to barangays like Bangkal, the city reduces the time and cost associated with job hunting and ensures that employment opportunities remain within reach of the communities that need them most. For those seeking a new career path, the October 3 job fair at the Bangkal Community Complex offers a valuable chance to explore opportunities and take a step toward sustainable employment. With employers on-site and support services available, the event reflects Makati’s continuing commitment to connecting its workforce with meaningful livelihood opportunities.
