Job Fair Lucky Draw Winner Announced

Bandar Seri Begawan - Dyg Maslina Kula, 24, was picked the lucky winner from the 2,500 entries of the where2kerja.com lucky draw held in conjunction with the Oil and Gas Sector Job Fair which was organised by the Department of Energy-at the Prime Minister's Office in last December.

In a brief interview, Maslina noted that before registering herself at the W2K booth, she was a bit hesitant but after a second visit to the booth she decided to give it a try.

Asked why the website drew her interest, she replied that the main thing that attracted her was that the website, unlike some other job vacancy adverts, is more reliable and more updated in providing information of latest vacancies both in the government and private sectors.

On hand to present her with her winning prize of a Samsung Mini Tab was the Marketing Manager of Indah Sejahtera Development and Services (13) Sdn Bhd (W2K Provider), Mr Christopher Ng.

According to Mr Ng, the lucky draw was conducted during the job fair to get jobseekers to register and upload their profile where they are automatically enrolled in the lucky draw.

It was the first time that the company conducted such activity and this year there will be several activities to be carried out such as roadshows which are set to assist local jobseekers to register in their system.
