Other days will also be organised next June in Tabarka and Tunis, with over 1,000 jobs proposed to participants.
These days are a follow-up to the outcome of a questionnaire targeted at professionals in tourism establishments, conducted May 2-10 to identify their needs in human resources.
Between 4,000 and 5,000 jobs are available in 80 tourism facilities, according to the outcome of the questionnaire.
Launched last April by the Ministries of Employment and of Tourism, this initiative is part of the coordination between the different State departments to better meet the needs of tourism sector facilities in matters of human resources and specialised workforce.
It further aims to ensure the best conditions for the success of the current tourist season and to facilitate the integration of the graduates of higher education and the national vocational training system in the various tourist facilities.
The goal is to improve the quality of services and to better promote Tunisia destination as a highly competitive tourism site.
