«2500 members and over 6 thousand applications». Francesco Cocco, coordinator of the Aspal employment center in Sassari, communicates this morning the first data of the Job Day which will end this evening in the Promocamera spaces in Predda Niedda. «We have the presence of 100 companies», he continues. «70 on site with physical stands and 30 training agencies».
The objective is always one, to bring together supply and demand, "for both low and high-skilled sectors". There are different age groups looking for work, including young people, more mature people, those who are qualified and want to re-employ or even those who receive the subsidy and intend to find accommodation. " This year we are paying great attention to social issues with an event oriented towards inclusion and which sees the participation of many social cooperatives looking for staff."
The seminar and workshop part is then distributed throughout the day, in which topics such as "Active job searching in the 4.0 era" or "Problem solving for the improvement of soft skills" are discussed and covered.
«In this period we are mainly looking for», Cocco returns on the topic of employment, «personnel for the tourism-accommodation sector» . But having Job Day in Sassari, or Cagliari, means opening up "to a tertiary economy" with areas such as information technology and digital. «The indicator of the success of the initiative», concludes Francesco Cocco, «cannot be only that of jobs. The effects are also important from an information point of view because, by coming here, you get to know the companies and acquire important contacts for the future."
