IT APPEARED TO be a more orderly process when thousands of job seekers turned up at the Lloyd Erskine Sandiford Centre this morning for the third consecutive day of recruitment by Sandals Resorts International.

From around 4 a.m. the dense line, which sometimes extended five and six people wide, snaked its way from the unpaved section in back of the facility with people hoping to claim one of the 600 positions available.

Police and private security personnel were visible outside of the main entrance to the building, patrolling the areas where the lines extended and at the main gates to maintain order. (YB)
