MAKATI CITY — Nearly 10,000 employment opportunities will be placed within reach of jobseekers as the Makati Public Employment Service Office (PESO), together with the Office of Senator Win Gatchalian and the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), holds a two-day Mega Job Fair on September 30 and October 1, 2026. The event will run from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM at the Ayala Malls Circuit Activity Center, bringing together 57 participating companies with a combined 9,892 job vacancies for both local and overseas employment. Jobseekers planning to attend are encouraged to register online ahead of the event and prepare updated resumes along with other necessary employment documents.
Local and Overseas Careers in Different Industries
Of the available positions, 6,869 are for local employment, while 3,023 are intended for overseas placement. The vacancies cover various industries, including retail, hospitality, business process outsourcing, manufacturing, and skilled trades. The participating employers include major companies from Metro Manila as well as recruitment agencies representing employment opportunities abroad. With different employers gathered in one location, applicants can explore multiple career options without having to go through separate application venues. The job fair will also allow applicants to submit credentials and participate in initial interviews during the event, with some potentially receiving job offers on the spot.
Bringing Employment Opportunities Closer to Makati Residents
For Makati jobseekers, the Mega Job Fair provides a convenient opportunity to connect directly with employers and recruitment agencies. Having numerous vacancies available in one venue allows applicants to explore different positions, compare opportunities, and receive feedback directly from recruiters. The overseas vacancies also provide an avenue for residents interested in pursuing careers outside the country, while the local openings offer options for those who prefer to build their careers closer to home. By bringing employers and jobseekers together through a single community-based event, Makati PESO helps reduce the time, transportation costs, and uncertainty often associated with searching for employment. More than a recruitment activity, the Mega Job Fair highlights the city’s continuing efforts to connect residents with employment opportunities and support the economic well-being of its workforce.
