Delivering the welcome address, Dr Fr. A. Amaladoss SDB, Principal of Don Bosco College, Golaghat, highlighted the importance of such initiatives in empowering the youth of Northeast India. Emphasising the transformative potential of career-oriented programmes, he stated that the event aimed to help young people identify their strengths, connect with industry stakeholders, and build sustainable, self-reliant futures.
The chief guest, Dr Putul Saikia, former Principal of DR College and a member of the Governing Body of the Don Bosco College Society, encouraged participants to actively engage with the opportunities presented. In his address, he urged job seekers to leverage institutional support systems to enhance their economic prospects and secure a stable future.

The job fair featured ten prominent recruiters from diverse sectors. Notable organisations included Quess Corp, Spectrum Talent Solutions Limited, Tata AIG, Barbeque Nation, GramTarang, MRF, GNRC Hospital, Flywayy, and the Indian Army, which promoted opportunities under the Agniveer scheme.
