“The Zimbabwe Chinese Enterprises Job Fair

aims to strengthen the socio-economic ties between China and Zimbabwe.

China has consistently been the largest contributor to Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Zimbabwe. With initiatives like the Belt and Road Initiative, BRICS, and FOCAC, Chinese employers are expected to create a surge in job opportunities.

In light of this, the job fair serves as a platform for Chinese employers operating in Zimbabwe to recruit highly skilled and talented individuals who will contribute to the employer’s interests and the country’s development agenda.

Furthermore, the job fair aligns with Zimbabwe’s education 5.0 strategy by providing employment opportunities that utilize modern technology and skills.

This approach not only addresses some of our country’s challenges but also facilitates the transfer of skills and knowledge during the course of employment.

Additionally, selected employees may have the opportunity to participate in exchange programs in China, further enhancing their expertise and broadening their skill set.
