Since its inception in 2000, Bayt.com has maintained a prominent position as a leading recruitment platform for the hospitality sector. At present, the job site’s community of professionals working in the hospitality industry consists of more than 500,000 job seekers, whose talents and experience spans all career levels and job roles in the hospitality industry.

” Bayt.com ‘s Virtual Job Fair concept is the natural revolution of the traditional job fair. It takes into consideration today’s fast pace of business, and the need for employers and job seekers alike to find results in the quickest, most convenient and cost-effective ways,” said Suhail Masri , VP Sales at Bayt.com . Bayt.com ‘s exciting Virtual Job Fair concept is unique in that it allows employers to fully interact with job seekers through an immersive, interactive virtual environment. The VJF platform mimics a traditional job fair setting but eliminates the inconveniences and logistics required to participate. It presents numerous advantages, not least of which is easy accessibility from anywhere in the world, less planning, no need for costly stand manufacturing and logistics and a far speedier implementation and execution.

When participating in one of Bayt.com ‘s Virtual Job Fairs, which take place fully online, employers and job seekers can use a range of digital tools, such as chat rooms, webcasts, and webinars to exchange vital job-related information. Jobseekers can search for available jobs and submit their CVs, while employers can interact with jobseekers through virtual ‘booths’.

Participating employers benefit from increased brand awareness, particularly amongst Bayt.com ‘s extensive portfolio of jobseekers – made up of over 500,000 registered users directly relevant to the hospitality industry and an additional eight million professionals with varied skills and experience across the industry spectrum. With Bayt.com ‘s Virtual Job Fair, there are minimal resource requirements in return for maximum exposure, which translate to lower costs and a higher return on investment for employers than with a traditional job fair. Moreover employers benefit from the excellent measurability the online job fair enables and the ease of managing the entire recruitment process particularly in terms of candidate sourcing and screening and selection.

In 2011 alone, Bayt.com ‘s Virtual Job Fairs attracted more than 31,000 registered job seekers, with over 100,000 total visits for the duration. Overall employer booth views averaged more than 10,000 (26,000 on average for Sponsor booths and an average of 15,000 for Platinum; 10,000 for Gold and 4,000 for Silver booths) with employers reporting a high satisfaction on their return-on-investment.
