His Excellency Sheikh Nahyan Bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, Minister of Culture, Youth & Development has officially opened Tawdheef, the leading recruitment exhibition for UAE Nationals.
Taking place at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) until 5 February, Tawdheef features thousands of job opportunities across more than 100 government and private sector organisations.
The three-day event arrives as Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai and Vice President of the United Arab Emirates, doubles Emiratisation targets for the UAE private sector. Sheikh Mohammed named 2013 as the year of Emiratisation, and now intends to double the target for the number of Emiratis employed in the private sector to provide jobs for the nation’s youth.
Hayete Jemai, Exhibition Director for Tawdheef said: “Tawdheef is a great chance for companies to meet with potential candidates. Organisations can conduct on-the-spot interviews to find out if a candidate is the right fit for the company.
“Over the last few years, the UAE Government has played an important role in increasing Emirati employment in the private sector. We’re pleased that exhibitions like Tawdheef can support the Government’s Emiratisation initiatives.”
Thousands of UAE Nationals are heading to Tawdheef this year to search for career opportunities in government, finance, healthcare, insurance, retail, tourism and hospitality, energy, industrial, media, recruitment, defence and security, IT, telecoms, transport and logistics.
Hamda Al Shamali, Senior Manager Emiratisation & Local Talent at HSBC, said: “It is very important for an international organisation such as HSBC to take part in local career fairs. As a bank with deep roots in UAE, the development and creation of job opportunities for UAE Nationals is at the heart of the HSBC’s long-term recruitment strategy.
“HSBC’s presence at Tawdheef is an invitation to the national graduates and job seekers to visit our stand to hear more about the job opportunities we can offer.”
Tawdheef is sponsored by Titanium sponsor, GHQ Armed Forces, Platinum sponsors, the National Bank of Abu Dhabi (NBAD) and Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB), and Gold sponsors, Abu Dhabi Tourism & Cultural Authority, ADNOC, and the Department of Municipal Affairs, all of which will have current job openings and long-term career opportunities to offer Emiratis.
Organised by Informa Exhibitions, the powerful career platform is open from 10am-7pm daily and is open to UAE Nationals only, with the morning of 4th February from 10am – 1pm reserved for UAE National ladies. Official Identification is required to enter the show and no under-18’s will be permitted. Visitor Registration and more information is available online at www.tawdheef.ae.
