Resorts World at Sentosa receives 20,000 applications in job fair


SINGAPORE: Good news for jobseekers who are looking for jobs at the integrated resorts. Resorts World at Sentosa will ramp up its hiring from June.

William Fong, 46, was among the 20,000 people who applied for a job at Resorts Worlds recently.

The former assistant engineer was retrenched early this year. Now, the father of three has reasons to smile again.

He said: "After my first interview at Resorts World, they offered me a job as a slot technician. I feel glad that this company is really concerned about workers who are older and with lower qualifications."

Resorts World has received overwhelming response to its recruitment efforts - it receives up to 200 online applications everyday.

Resorts World currently has more than 800 job openings. So far, only 10 of those positions have been filled, but Resorts World is looking forward to hiring more employees soon.

So those who did not get the positions they had applied for should not fret.

Assistant vice-president of communications at Resorts World at Sentosa, Robin Goh, said: "What may happen is that we may look through their resumes, and if we find them a fit in other attractions we have, Universal Theme Park for example, we may refer them to the Universal team to do the selection."

Resorts World says it is committed to hiring Singaporeans for the 10,000 positions available.
