“HMC takes pride in organising this important annual event where study and employment opportunities at the Corporation and other local employers are highlighted,” said al-Khalifa.

“The fair aimed at familiarising the public with sponsorship opportunities for study programmes, professional development, hands-on training, academic and vocational counseling services, in addition to discovering local potential employers, volunteering and community service initiatives, and other ongoing health awareness activities,” she explained.
