Job fair at “AGRO 2012”

Astra Agricultural Construction Alliance took part in the III All-Ukrainian job fair for agricultural technology professions, “AGRIJOB – work in the agro-industrial complex”, organised by the Ukrainian Agribusiness Club.

A shortage of skilled workers could become an obstacle to agribusiness development in Ukraine, since many agricultural enterprises face an acute need for highly qualified specialists. UCAB’s AgriJob recruitment agency holds a job fair every year to create a platform for students, graduates and young specialists in agricultural professions to connect with agricultural employers.

This year, 18 leading agricultural enterprises and nearly 300 job seekers took part in the job fair.
90% of candidates were university graduates or final-year students (agricultural machinery engineers, agronomists, livestock specialists, veterinarians, agricultural economists/managers, and agricultural accountants).

For ASA “Astra” LLC, the job fair was an excellent opportunity to find candidates for open positions.
