R4K AT THE ATB CAREER FAIR


They say opportunity knocks only once, and for R4K this saying couldn’t come at any other better time than this! When the company was invited for its first ever career fair by the Africa Talent Bank (ATB), Chief Executive Officer (C.E.O) Miss Miriam Mukasa.

The ATB career fair that was held in the month of May boasted of over 2,000 participants who had attended the function and this had provided a major boost for R4K since the more the people it meant more publicity and thus good for the growing company which needed as much exposure as it could have.

Among the guest speakers who attended included Bob Colymore, the Safaricom C.E.O and apparently, the Safaricom stand had been situated directly opposite the R4K stand and thus this had attracted a good number of Safaricom clients to the R4K stand leading to a total of almost 300 clients who had registered with the R4K by the end of the day.

Speaking in his office after their first successful career fair held in Kenyatta International Conference Center (K.IC.C), Mr. Allan Muka the R4K Director of Operations acknowledged the opportunity presented to them by Ms. Mukasa. He pointed out that being at the ATB career fair had placed the company at a more strategic place since thanks to the exposure, R4K got several invitations to career fairs and business conferences, including; Daystar University career fair, IBM conference held at Strathmore University and now United States International University (U.S.I.U) career fair which will be held during the second week of July 2013 just to mention a few.

It should be noted that the company was only approximately two months old when it participated in that particular career fair that hosted already established and even multinational organizations like Unilever, British American Tobacco (B.A.T),  Safaricom, Standard Bank, Dhanush among other companies.
