Yesterday, (December 21, 2021) Acting Premier and Minister of Education the Hon. Diallo Rabain, JP MP, visited the BTA and Bermuda Workforce Development’s collaborative Recruitment Drive at Hamilton Princess.

Minister Rabain stated, “I was pleased to see that there were over 780 people pre-registered for the event. This government is committed to getting the economy back on track, and events such as these which support employment opportunities for our residents are very positive.

The hospitality trade is vital to Bermuda and requires Bermudians to be a part of it. The willingness of our Hotel partners to show their commitment to hiring Bermudians is to be commended. I am proud of all my fellow Bermudians that came out to register their interests and make job applications on the spot.

I look forward to this event's positive outcome and am encouraged by the discussions about this becoming an annual event. I want to thank Charles Jeffers of the BTA, and the team at the Department of Workforce Development and the Bermuda Hotel Association.”
