A resoundingly successful first edition: 127 hires made in 2021 from the job fair
In 2021, Pôle Emploi Martinique (the local job centre) and its partners set up this new forum: the Martinique pour l'Emploi job fair. Because of the pandemic, the fair was exclusively hosted remotely. The first job fair was held remotely from 23 September to 5 October 2021. The event offered candidates and industry professionals the chance to come together online to discuss recruitment and for candidates to speak to HR managers at companies looking for people to hire. Participants also had access to attend a series of 13 web seminars devoted to employment.
