Over the weekend, more than 150 young individuals took part in a job fair organized by the Secretariat of Prime Minister Gaston Browne in St John’s City West
The event, which was held at, Villa Community Center, aimed to provide valuable guidance on job interview preparation, covering aspects such as appropriate attire, resume writing, and effective presentation skills.
Prime Minister Gaston Browne emphasized that many young people in his constituency have faced challenges in securing employment for various reasons, leading to unsuccessful job interviews.
I wish the youth success in seeking employment. Antigua and Barbuda’s job opportunities are very small as the population proliferates. I think the retirement age should return to 60. Some young people might have to seek employment in the other Caribbean islands through the free movement of people system.
Some parents who can afford to send their children to Canada 🇨🇦 and America to study have told them not to return because there will be no jobs available in Antigua and Barbuda for their studies or other fields of employment.
