Job applicants can also see offered salaries upfront on the portal.
Senior Minister of State for Trade and Industry Low Yen Ling noted that the job market is already well served by several job portals.
The portal allows F&B companies to “customise and highlight unique employee value propositions, to more intelligently recruit and perhaps retrain the right candidates”, RAS president Andrew Kwan said at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre.While developing the portal in the past year, RAS vice-president Benjamin Boh said the association and its members – which represent 70 per cent of Singapore’s F&B industry – shared pain points with the team from FastCo.
She added that FABjobs is also designed to attract greater workforce participation from latent job seekers, such as stay-at-home mothers, with the aim of reducing the barriers such job seekers face in rejoining the workforce.Zoul’s Corner, which has five outlets islandwide and is best known for its ayam penyet, is a smaller F&B player that is optimistic about finding new staff via the portal in the future.
“It’s very difficult to get Singaporeans... There are plenty of Malaysians willing to do the work, but because of quotas, we have to hire Singaporeans,” said Mr Rahman, who has listed available jobs in Malay daily Berita Harian and even on his own Facebook page.
