With over 110,000 online applications for the National Recruitment Drive, along with thousands of physical submissions, Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar says she is not surprised by the response, as employment was one of the main pleas citizens made during the United National Congress’ general election campaign.
Persad-Bissessar visited the recruitment centre at the National Cycling Velodrome in Couva yesterday, where scores of people continued to apply for public sector jobs.
“I have been on the ground, all of us on the ground, and two things people wanted mainly: jobs, and they wanted to be safe. They wanted to be safe and secure. We are working on the end of those things, so I am not surprised,” Persad-Bissessar told reporters.
