Held in partnership with government agencies and private sector leaders, SM Supermalls’ Job Fairs have become a staple platform for accessible employment across industries. Ever since, SM supported the nationwide simultaneous job fairs of the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) during Labor Day (May 1) and Kalayaan Day (June 12), offering thousands of positions to job seekers across the country.

It’s a holistic approach—from application to upskilling to employment.
