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.
Awesome!!
