HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 8 March 2024 - Organised by The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers (HKIE), the key event of the Hong Kong Engineers Week 2024 – Career Fairs aims to promote exchanges and co-operation between students and corporations, whereby students can learn about the characteristics and development of corporations through the Recruitment Expo, while corporations can provide internships, job placements and career development opportunities to students.



The first stop of the Career Fairs was held at The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) on 29 February, followed by the Hong Kong Institute of Vocational Education (IVE - Tsing Yi) and the School of Professional Education and Executive Development, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU SPEED), and the fourth stop of the Career Fairs at the City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) today.

Hong Kong's engineering sector has more and more opportunities for development in the future, and new talents are needed in promoting the development of the industry. I believe that through our joint efforts and co-operation, the engineering sector will become more brilliant and outstanding."
