The University of Guyana, usually teeming with students pursuing academic excellence,http://www.footlockershop.us.com/Gel-hyper-33/, was transformed into a cacophony of sounds and gaiety when several business organisations showcased their wares at the annual career day on that institution’s car park, yesterday morning.The occasion attracted students from more than 78 schools as well as business institutions and other interest groups around the country.From as early as 08:00hrs, busloads of students from as far as Linden,NFL Jerseys Supply, to the south, and Berbice to the east of Georgetown converged on the campus to view the exhibits in some of the booths, or in other cases, capitalise on career opportunities.Banks DIH, a perennial fixture at these activities over the years, was once again in the forefront exhibiting products while having discourse with enquiring minds.Communications Manager of Banks DIH, Troy Peters, said that apart from the opportunity to interact with potential employees, the occasion allowed his organisation to engage in a bit of product sampling. One of the products used for the occasion was the Coca Cola Zero, a product manufactured with zero percent sugar content. Mr. Peters explained that the aim behind the product was to provide consumers with an acceptable beverage that minimises the chances of obesity. Visitors to the Banks DIH booth were also treated to a sample of whole wheat bread, another wholesome product that minimises instances of obesity.Mr. Peters further explained that his corporation is an integral force in the Guyanese economy and engages in economic activity in almost every sector.“Banks DIH has a sanitation department,Jerseys NFL Wholesale China, a health department and a security department among others and could accommodate UG graduates from almost every faculty,” he intimated. He further said that UG graduates,http://www.footlockershop.us.com/Gel-atena-rf/, once employed at Banks DIH, could fill junior management positions.The Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) was also among the other organisations displaying their products. A competent staff led by Communications Officer, Melissa Baird, spent tireless hours explaining to interested persons, the benefits derived from Value Added Tax,jerseys nfl wholesale, a contentious topic since its introduction into the Guyanese way of life. She said that Career Day activities complimented those of the GRA as it celebrates 10 years of service to the Guyanese society.Ms. Baird further revealed that there are about 500 positions within her organisation that are vacant. She said that qualified UG students may apply for these positions.“Many persons have criticised the VAT and some even labeled it in the vilest ways but it must be noted that the funds accrued from this tax is spent on much needed infrastructural works and services that benefit Guyanese in the long run. “Pay your taxes and help to develop your country,” Ms. Baird urged taxpayers.The students of Tain University, Berbice, traveled all the way from the Ancient County to participate in the activities. Some of their exhibits included researched documents in several fields, aimed at enhancing the livelihood of fellow Guyanese as well as informing policy at the executive level. One such document researched the financial,cheap nfl jerseys, social and agronomical implications for the introduction of mechanical harvesting of sugar cane at the Skeldon Estate.
