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.
Speaking at the launch of FABjobs, Senior Minister of State for Trade and Industry Low Yen Ling noted that the job market is already well served by several job portals. But there was a need for a portal that caters to the services industry, which has a combination of full-time, part-time and contract roles.
While Zoul’s Corner has not put up any job listings on FABjobs yet, its senior operations manager Rahman Sharil said: “Maybe with this new portal we will have more chances to filter and hire people.” The current foreign worker quota for F&B businesses in Singapore is a maximum of 35 per cent of the total workforce.
