Multi-sector event draws large turnout, offers real-time hiring opportunities to youth
A multi-sector job fair held at Kohima College on Billy Graham Road witnessed a major turnout of job seekers, students, and recent graduates, with over 50% of participants receiving job offers on the spot. The event, hailed for its inclusive and practical approach, was held in collaboration with The Art of Living Human Resources, Bangalore, and supported by Resilient Generation.
Running from 10:00 AM throughout the day, the fair featured walk-in interviews and direct resume submissions, offering participants a rare opportunity to engage with recruiters across diverse sectors including education, hospitality, information technology, marketing, NGOs, media and communications, and industrial services.
Kohima College served as the venue partner, facilitating smooth coordination. Volunteers from Kohima College, Sazolie College, and Tetso College played a key role in logistics and candidate assistance.
“We understand the frustration of feeling excluded from decisions that shape our futures,” said a spokesperson from Resilient Generation. “That is why we are undertaking this initiative — to create an environment where young individuals can lead, grow, and take responsibility for change. This is not about handouts; it is about offering genuine opportunities.”
Aside from those who received offers immediately, many candidates were shortlisted for further stages of the recruitment process.
The event was acclaimed for its inclusive and multi-sectoral approach, as well as its role in addressing local employment needs in a meaningful and practical manner.
