Are you looking for a job in the UAE/KSA? This will be an important time for you. Q2/H2 are both coming to a close. Here’s what this means - Hiring budgets WILL be renewed. (for most organisations) Many companies will have a quarterly hiring budget. If this budget was exhausted, roles can be put on hold or delayed towards the back end of the quarter. At the start of the quarter, companies tend to: - Hire more, hire faster, and re-engage the market. If youre on the market, capitalise on this ✅ Remember, your job search should take 2-4 weeks. Ps, hit like if you’re exploring opportunities in Q3 👍

Got shortlisted for a post at one of UAE’s leading companies with a diversified portfolio across multiple sectors. The recruiter reached out 4 weeks ago, collected my details, and mentioned they would reconnect if my profile matched the job requirements. After 3 weeks, I was asked to meet the hiring manager in Abu Dhabi despite being based in Dubai. Following the long journey, I was informed during the interview that my experience didn't align with the role. Despite highlighting the relevance of my prior responsibilities matching those on LinkedIn, the outcome was disappointing. While understanding the hiring manager's discretion, this journey of 350KM (3.5 hours round trip) for a meeting left me surprised. It's essential for recruiters and hiring managers to consider the efforts individuals make when scheduling meetings across cities to avoid such situations. A sincere message to all recruiters and hiring managers: avoid inconveniencing candidates by conducting thorough pre-screenings, such as video calls, to prevent unnecessary time and resource wastage. Please ensure a more efficient and respectful recruitment process for all. Hope it doesn’t happen to any of you. #recruiters #hiring #hiringmanagers #almasaood #Ahmedalmasaood

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘂𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗲𝘁𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗝𝗼𝗯 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁... Last year, we advertised over 400 positions, yet not a single hire came from candidates who applied through the job portal. Surprising? Here’s why... In this fast-paced market, roles fill quickly, and competition is fierce. For example, I recently posted a Senior FP&A Manager role and received 1,200+ applications in just 24 hours. While that speaks to the incredible talent out there, it’s simply impossible to sift through every profile. So, What Do We Do? We proactively search for the BEST talent for our clients. And where do we look first? LinkedIn. Your profile is often the first impression recruiters and hiring managers get. We go by face value, meaning your LinkedIn profile must truly represent your skills, achievements, and potential in the best possible light. So to land your dream job, your LinkedIn profile needs to...  • Clearly showcase your expertise and accomplishments.  • It needs to be optimized with the right keywords for your target roles.  • Include a compelling headline. NTS Group first opened its doors in Dubai back in 2009 and have grown over the last 15 years to become the region’s leading Executive Search firm, supporting some of the world’s most recognisable companies across FMCG, Pharmaceuticals, Medical, Healthcare & Technology.

Trying to land a job in the UAE/KSA from abroad? Take 60 seconds to read this post. If you’re used to finding a job in the UK, EU, US, CA… (and pretty much anywhere else that’s not the GCC) Landing a job here is NOT the same. What works at home doesn’t necessarily work here. Here are some things you NEED to know: 1: hyper saturation - in most cases, there are 10x+ more applicants for the roles you’ll be applying to, don’t let it put you off applying. 2: automation - due to the sheer volume of talent on the market, hiring teams will increase reliance on automation, leading to the “thank you for applying” emails. 3: selection - recruitment teams will usually give preference to disqualification instead of qualification, this means the small mistakes can take you out of the running. 4: headhunting - headhunting plays a huge role in recruitment in the region, but the market is active, so they’ll only need to contact a small number of applicants. I’ll be conducting a live session on navigating these challenges and landing interviews in the region. The session will be announced on Thursdays post. Remember, your job search should take 2-4 weeks. Ps, hit like if you’re looking for a role in the UAE/KSA ✅

Lets talk... *Process* - Why don't you receive engagement after you press the apply button? How to avoid being missed in the large pile of applicants? As a Recruiter settling into the UAE market, having previously worked in the UK - I can absolutely, no doubt say that the volume and competition in the UAE is unlike anything you could imagine. It is crazy competitive, theres a significant amount of talent either already based here - or looking to relocate here. The biggest struggle out here for many candidates is the ability to be seen once you have hit that apply button. Why? Because any one job advert can receive 1000 - 4000 applications (And thats on a good day, depending on the role this can be as high as 7000). Given its rarely ever just the one role Talent Acquisition and Recruitment professionals are working on, it very quickly becomes impossible to get through every one of those applications! 💡 You have to try alternative methods, alternative routes and make sure you stand out from the rest. - if you need help with this - drop me a message!! #BeDifferent #StandOut #Hiring #Job #Recruitment #CJC
