To facilitate citizens living in the New Territories to join the Force, RECDIV brought its second Community Outreach Recruitment Express (CORE) into the community by setting up recruitment information booth with the theme of panda in Yuen Long District between January 4 and 5, 2025. The three Recruitment Spokespersons shared the latest recruitment information for the public to gain better knowledge of the job requirements and selection process. The Interactive Police Unit Display at the venue also showcased the diversity of policing work. Applicants could attend the on-spot group interview for Police Constable inside the Panda Recruitment Express. They would receive a limited edition calendar produced collaboratively by RECDIV and the Police Dog Unit. The response was overwhelming with over 100 applications received.
