The specific note that the Mesa Municipal por el Empleo, organizer of the fair, is made up of nearly thirty social and economic agents, public and private entities and social entities, and that more than twenty groups from the Mesa were present at the presentation event. Likewise, the Government subdelegate in Cádiz, Blanca Flores, has put the drop in unemployment in the province over the last decade at more than 60,000 people.

The official presentation of 'Espacio Empleo Cádiz' was held this Tuesday at the Depósitos de Tabaco, with the participation of the deputy mayor of Economic Development of the Cádiz City Council, Beatriz Gandullo, and the vice-rector of Entrepreneurship and Employability of the UCA, Carmen Camelo, among other authorities. The note details part of the program: on Tuesday 17, from 11:30 to 13:30 hours, the auditorium will host the lecture 'Opositar hoy: experiencias reales, dificultades y claves para alcanzar la plaza', by Ruth Galván, followed by a round table on public employment moderated by Carmen Ferradans. On Wednesday 18 the lecture will be repeated and there will be another round table with representatives of the INSS, the Armada, the Inspección de Trabajo and the CNI. In parallel, the EmprendeLab space will host talks on entrepreneurship at 10:45 and 11:45 hours. The UCA will have its own stand alongside 50 provincial entities and institutions and will participate with a space dedicated to Public Employment and another to Entrepreneurship. The note also includes statements from Mantell, Flores, Olivero, Romero and Muñoz, and places registrations at empleo.cadiz.es.

Eighty companies and organisations and at least 125 real job offers. That is what the first 'Espacio Empleo Cádiz' Job Fair will bring to the Depósitos de Tabaco de Cádiz, to be held on November 17 and 18 from 9 to 14 hours. It is organised by the Mesa Municipal por el Empleo, as announced by the Ayuntamiento de Cádiz. The offers are already published and can be consulted before attending. Attendance is free until full capacity is reached, although registrations can be made through the event's website. The full programme, which is still to be finalised, can be consulted at the fair's page.

The event does not stop at the stands. The two days will begin with a common session in the auditorium and continue with workshops and round tables distributed simultaneously across different areas. There will be talks on public employment, entrepreneurship, skills, talent recruitment in sectors of interest to the province and artificial intelligence, among other topics. At the same time, participating companies will have stands in the between-platforms space of the Depósitos to present their offers and conduct interviews and selection processes on the same premises. There will also be independent spaces for public and social organisations, which will show the resources they offer in terms of employment, two multi-purpose rooms, two training classrooms and a coworking space. The mayor of Cádiz, Bruno García, has stated that the fair will offer "real opportunities to find a job" and that the format goes beyond a traditional fair, with three axes: employment, entrepreneurship and business. The presentation was also attended by the Government subdelegate in Cádiz, Blanca Flores; the territorial delegate for Economy, Finance, European Funds and University, Industry, Energy and Innovation of the Junta de Andalucía, Inmaculada Olivero; the rector of the University of Cádiz (UCA), Casimiro Mantell; the general secretary of the Confederación de Empresarios de Cádiz (CEC), Carmen Romero, and the representative of the Fundación Santa María la Real, María Eugenia Muñoz González.

The job offers and registrations are available on the 'Espacio Empleo Cádiz' website. Attendance is free until full capacity is reached. The fair is held on November 17 and 18, from 9 to 14 hours, at the Depósitos de Tabaco de Cádiz.
