LAOAG CITY—“This is the new age of recruitment,” said Nicole Rudio, provincial manager of the Public Employment Service Office (PESO) as the Ilocos Norte Jobs Portal, a one-stop access with superior job-matching capabilities with extensive reach was officially launched on June 6 at the La Tabacalera function hall here.

Attended by industry players that included private employers and local business owners, the new website administered by the Information Technology department of the Ilocos Norte government features an accessible, easy to use and free of charge website that aims to match up job applicants and employers in just a few click of the mouse.

For employers who would want to post a job, Ms. Rudio said the locos Norte Jobs portal can help you reach more qualified candidates than ever before.

Simply go to: www.ilocosnorte.gov.ph/jobs, register and submit the necessary requirement to the provincial PESO email: locosnorte@yahoo.com.

Open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the local jobs portal of Ilocos Norte can be access through a computer with internet, tablet or android phones.

Elated with the opening of the website, provincial administrator Windell Chua, who represented Ilocos Norte Gov. Ma. Imelda “Imee” R. Marcos, said that by coming out with a unity of purpose, there will be a bigger development in the employer and employee sector as the province more towards inclusive economic growth. 

“This is an efficient way of providing opportunities. When there’s delay, opportunities are lost,” Mr. Chua added.

To boost the job creation program of the Marcos administration being popularized as “Manang Imee = Trabaho”, the task force trabaho program continue to develop new ways to match job seekers to the needed work force.

Also, she noted during her State of the Province Address in 2013, “For only jobs guarantee a permanent pathway out of poverty- and our challenge today is to create stable, wage-paying quality jobs that will finally end poverty in the province.”

Through the conduct of job fairs, the PESO reported an accomplishment of 107.69 percent last year with 346 participating employers, 29,925 solicited number of vacancies and a total of 3,977 registered applicants.

A mobile application version of the jobs website is also being considered to foster its expansion in the future.

“Only jobs guarantee a permanent pathway out of poverty—and our challenge today is to create stable, wage-paying quality jobs,” Ms. Marcos said in her state of the province address last year, highlighting her constant support for the creation of more jobs for Ilocanos. Through the jobs website project, it is expected that this priority will be further realized.
