Through its participation in Careers UAE 2017, the Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry is inviting young Emirati graduates to join its staff and play an active role in serving Dubai’s thriving business community.
The annual career fair kicked off today at the Dubai World Trade Centre, and is expected to be attended by 17,000 Emirati jobseekers. The Chamber’s pavilion at the exhibition attracted a large number of recent graduates who were able to learn more about current vacancies within the organisation’s research, legal, corporate responsibility, and international relations departments, in addition to the Dubai International Arbitration Centre.
Visitors were also provided with an overview of the Chamber’s mission vision, and values, as well as some of the main benefits associated with working for the non-profit public organisation.
Essa Al Zaabi, Senior Vice-President, Institutional Support Sector, Dubai Chamber, said: "Dubai Chamber is committed to empowering and developing national talent through its strategic Emiratisation programmes and initiatives as they contribute to our organisational growth and the development of the business community in Dubai.”
He added that Dubai Chamber achieved an Emiratisation rate of 55% at the end of 2016, and revealed plans to increase this figure to 60% by the end of this year.
Al Zaabi added that the Chamber provides a rewarding experience and exciting environment for staff where they can develop their skill sets and grow professionally.
Dubai Chamber launched the “Fursa: Together We Shape Your Future” programme four years ago, which is designed to train and recruit Emirati graduates, and provide them with an opportunity to establish a career and serve their country. Since its launch, 42 graduates have been trained and 25 were hired on a permanent basis, while the door has remained open to new participants.
