Batelco hosted a stand at the event where industry experts were available to answer questions and give advice based on their years of experience in their respective fields.
Batelco Group General Manager HR and Development Shaikh Ahmed Al Khalifa expressed Batelco's pleasure in supporting the Career Day event which is an iconic event on the Bahrain calendar for students and educators.
"Such events provide the perfect opportunity for university students to find out more about careers in the telecommunications industry as well as the wider job market. The youth of today will be the leaders of tomorrow. Education, knowledge and sound advice will provide invaluable tools to help them face the challenges that lie ahead. The UoB, in organising events such as these, is helping to build a better future for Bahraini generations to come," Shaikh Ahmed added.
