Haveri District Job Fair Inaugurated with Message of Persistence and Flexibility
The chief executive officer of the Haveri zilla panchayat, Ruchi Bindal, delivered an inspiring message to job aspirants during the inauguration of a district-level job fair on Thursday. The event was held at the GH College premises in Haveri and saw participation from numerous stakeholders in the employment ecosystem.
Encouragement for Continuous Effort
Addressing the gathering, Ruchi Bindal emphasized that no one should feel discouraged if they fail to secure a position in a single interview. She highlighted that success in the competitive job market often requires continuous effort and hard work, urging candidates to keep trying repeatedly despite initial setbacks.
Collaborative Initiative for Employment
The job fair was organized through a collaborative effort involving multiple government bodies and schemes. Key partners included:
- The district administration
- Zilla panchayat
- Department of skill development, entrepreneurship and livelihood
- National Rural Livelihood Mission (NRLM) Sanjeevini
- Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Grameen Kaushalya Yojana
This multi-agency approach aimed to create comprehensive employment opportunities for the local population.
Practical Advice for Job Seekers
Ruchi Bindal offered practical guidance to those seeking employment. She advised job seekers to first focus on securing any job opportunity rather than limiting themselves to positions available in their immediate locality. They should be willing to relocate to places where jobs are available, she noted, adding that initial experience would eventually lead to promotions and salary increases.
She specifically cautioned against leaving jobs once obtained, emphasizing the importance of stability and gradual career progression.
Extensive Participation and Opportunities
The job fair attracted significant corporate participation with more than 93 prestigious companies from across the state setting up recruitment stalls. These companies offered opportunities for candidates with diverse educational backgrounds including:
- SSLC
- PUC
- Degree
- Postgraduate degree

The CEO encouraged unemployed men, women, and differently abled candidates to confidently attend interviews with the participating companies and secure employment through this platform.
