The current scenario for employment seekers is that they may not get the job that truly interests them.

Noting this, Sabah Chief Minister Tan Sri Musa Aman urged job seekers not to be too selective: "What is more important is that you want to work and get a job that can guarantee your livelihood".

"Admittedly it is not easy to find a job of one's preference but you should grab any employment that is available," he said while launching a job carnival organised by the Sabah Public Services Commission here, today.

Fifteen private companies participated in the carnival, offering 800 jobs in various sectors.

Musa said the state government was constantly endeavouring to create employment opportunities for job seekers in the state by setting up industries in sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing, tourism, and oil and gas.
