New Delhi, March 20: The Defence Ministry’s Directorate General Resettlement (DGR) will organise a mega job fair for ex-servicemen at Aravali Auditorium, Near Shankar Vihar Metro Station, Delhi Cantonment, on Friday.
The job fair began at the auditorium at 7 a.m., and ex-servicemen were required to carry their I-cards and five copies of their biodata, a Defence Ministry official said. The DGR said the fair will offer several benefits to industry employers, including free online registration, free job postings, free stall allotment, and free access to resumes of ex-servicemen. Earlier, a similar job fair was held by the Defence Ministry in Chandigarh on March 17. These job fairs serve as a dedicated platform to connect Ex-Servicemen of the Indian Army, Navy and Air Force with leading employers from the Corporate and Industry sectors, including security, IT, administration, logistics, healthcare, and engineering, said an official statement. Sharing information on the job fair in Delhi, a statement issued by the Ministry of Defence (MoD) said this initiative reflects the continued commitment of the Department of Ex-Servicemen Welfare (MoD) towards resettlement and welfare of ex-servicemen, ensuring they are recognised for their discipline, leadership and technical expertise – skills that are highly valued in the civilian job market.
