Five key recruitment<br />
trends in the <strong>UAE</strong> region<br />
Gareth El Mettouri, Associate Director<br />
The speed of change sweeping across the<br />
<strong>UAE</strong> region is having a profound impact<br />
on the business environment. Companies<br />
can’t afford to avoid hiring and retaining<br />
the talent they need to maximise<br />
efficiencies to stay competitive.<br />
“<br />
80% of HR directors<br />
find it challenging<br />
to secure skilled<br />
professional<br />
employees<br />
”<br />
Businesses are focussed on improving operations<br />
and maintaining their position in the market.<br />
Although the regional economy has plateaued in<br />
recent months, attributed in part to the reduction in<br />
oil and gas activity, <strong>UAE</strong> employers continue to fill<br />
open vacancies and backfill permanent positions.<br />
As a result, 80% of HR directors in the region find it<br />
challenging to secure skilled, professional level<br />
employees today. Almost half (48%) say that the<br />
primary reason for this is the lack of niche, technical<br />
experts.<br />
International impact<br />
The region’s successful bid for Expo 2020 continues<br />
As the international economy improves it is becoming<br />
important for companies in the <strong>UAE</strong> to prioritise<br />
retaining key performers while attracting skilled<br />
professionals with a comprehensive recruitment<br />
strategy. Competition for the best candidates with<br />
in-demand skills is increasing and will continue to<br />
rise particularly in the sectors experiencing growth.<br />
Strong cultural fit required<br />
<strong>UAE</strong> employers are not just looking for finance,<br />
technology, human resources, legal and<br />
administration candidates with proven skills, but<br />
also those with the right cultural fit who can work<br />
with the rest of the team and mirror the values of<br />
the organisation. To attract and secure those<br />
professionals in a tighter skills market, companies<br />
need to ensure they are offering a competitive<br />
remuneration and benefits package.<br />
to drive up optimism for business growth over the<br />
coming years and this in turn is creating a shortage<br />
of the best candidates to help take organisations<br />
forward.<br />
As international economies, particularly in the United<br />
Kingdom, Europe and the United States of America<br />
return to pre-recessionary levels, <strong>UAE</strong> companies<br />
are now having to compete on an international<br />
scale to attract top performing candidates as the<br />
perceived benefits of relocating to the region for<br />
these candidates have diminished.<br />

With the decline in offering of all-inclusive<br />
relocation incentives combined with rising living<br />
costs, businesses are implementing training and<br />
development and career progression opportunities<br />
of existing staff. This is reflected by the increased<br />
demand for talent development human resources<br />
professionals. The resulting supply and demand<br />
imbalance is seeing starting salaries for learning<br />
and development managers rise by 7.6% in 2016<br />
according to the Robert Half 2016 Salary Guide.<br />
higher remuneration, with 29% citing this as the top<br />
motivator. Further reasons to leave the company<br />
include further career advancement (27%), better<br />
work-life balance (24%), better location (13%) and<br />
better corporate culture (7%).<br />
The majority (75%) of finance leaders are offering<br />
career development opportunities as their main<br />
attraction strategy for international talent. In an<br />
attempt to increase efficiencies and facilitate<br />
growth, it is becoming more important for businesses<br />
to upskill and develop their current workforce than<br />
offer all-inclusive relocation packages to new<br />
foreign finance professionals.<br />
The rise of M&A activity<br />
Market observers including PwC believe that<br />
the Middle East and Africa are on the brink of a<br />
significant increase in merger and acquisition (M&A)<br />
deal flow, despite regulatory and cultural barriers<br />
that will continue to limit activity in some areas.<br />
M&A activity is predicted to take off the most quickly<br />
in the education, healthcare, retail and consumer<br />
sectors, sparking a rise in demand for accounting<br />
and finance professionals in those markets.<br />
Market diversification<br />
The <strong>UAE</strong> region continues to benefit from its longstanding<br />
policy of diversification away from oil<br />
production.<br />
The construction sector topped a recent list of<br />
major employers, followed by the business sector.<br />
The region’s Ministry of Labour commented that<br />
the business sector made up a quarter of total<br />
employment and that the <strong>UAE</strong>’s labour market is<br />
“heading towards attracting talent and expertise in<br />
specialised and technical professions”.<br />
Retention concerns<br />
As skills shortages continue to bite, HR directors are<br />
becoming more concerned about losing talented<br />
professionals to the competition, locally and<br />
internationally. Almost three quarters (72%) say that<br />
they are worried about top performers leaving to<br />
take up other job opportunities in the year ahead.<br />
HR directors believe that the main reason for<br />
employees to leave the company is the offer of<br />
Bearing all of this in mind, it’s more important<br />
than ever for companies to benchmark existing<br />
employees’ remuneration packages against current<br />
industry standards in order to avoid employees<br />
leaving for new pastures. Additionally, businesses<br />
should partner with specialist recruitment agencies<br />
like Robert Half to help improve their recruitment<br />
strategy in order to build a talented workforce.<br />
72% of HR Directors are concerned<br />
about losing employees to other<br />
job opportunities<br />

An interview with<br />
Andrew Hesketh<br />
Country Manager<br />
Spener Ogden, Dubai.<br />
I would say now it takes a<br />
very talented person to do ‘‘<br />
a good job in our market<br />
’’<br />
How did you get into recruitment?<br />
I first worked in construction in the UK and then moved into recruitment covering the same sector I worked within.<br />
I was approached by an agency we used at the time on site, it was freezing cold, the usual North West UK weather<br />
in winter and I thought what could be better than working in a warm office. It turned out to be a good career move.<br />
What made you move to the Middle East?<br />
I actually moved to the Middle East by chance, I originally planned to move to Perth in Australia as the market<br />
was booming over there back in 2008. Delivering that news to my parents didn’t go down too well and moving<br />
somewhere closer was more suited to my family. Dubai was a second choice but turned out to be a much better<br />
one considering how the economy hasn’t bounced back so well in Australia.<br />
You have been very successful during your time in Dubai, what’s your secret?<br />
It’s not very complicated, I made sure I invested my time into things would be more likely to pay off than not.<br />
Do research before committing to too much work and be persistent. The consultants who have been very successful<br />
and have a great client base are also the consultants who have worked with a lot of bad companies in the process.<br />
You always need to test the waters, ensure you know where the cutt-off mark is and when to invest more time.<br />
a view from the Spencer Ogden offices<br />
How did the Oil price affect business in 2015?<br />
The oil prices dropping affected a lot of things, the<br />
best economists couldn’t tell you what exactly with<br />
accuracy. It’s complicated Geo-politics. In general<br />
I think the companies which always diversified<br />
and didn’t put all their eggs in the Oil basket have<br />
managed to take the impact. From a recruitment<br />
perspective, it has affected a lot of people. I<br />
would say now it takes a very talented person to<br />
do a good job in our market. Maybe a year ago<br />
you would expect the same results from someone<br />
with little experience or enthusiasm. The people who<br />
work hard and do the right things always come<br />
out on top no matter how bad the market is.<br />

What sectors does SO operate in the region?<br />
We work in a lot of different sectors to stay diversified. Different<br />
types of energy, infrastructure, Oil & Gas and construction.<br />
We focus on niches within these markets to ensure we<br />
have a unique angle when approaching clients.<br />
What sectors do you see spike in the next few years?<br />
The next few years is a long time. I imagine the<br />
upstream sector would bounce back within this<br />
time. In general I think everything will spike within<br />
the <strong>UAE</strong> during this time, this is a great country to<br />
recruit in. There are many new projects within<br />
the Oil & Gas space, infrastructure, build etc. so<br />
I believe in general we will see a lot of good<br />
things happening within the next few years.<br />
I hear SO have very quirky offices?<br />
Our offices are incredible, they are a fantastic<br />
place to work. The positivity we have and<br />
enthusiasm from our staff is brilliant. We have a<br />
view over the Palm Jumeirah, a putting green,<br />
scooters, bicycles, an Arabic cafe as a board<br />
room. A great environment for people to work in.<br />
Happy people work well and I think giving the right<br />
people a fun and energetic environment leads to<br />
great things.<br />
What’s your views on team building events?<br />
SO do a lot of team building events and we like to celebrate<br />
success a lot. We have trips to Vegas, Shanghai, boat parties,<br />
buffet days in the office, office dinners, a lunch club for our top<br />
performers and this is just to mention a few.<br />
When people do a good job with SO they are really rewarded<br />
for it. This all adds to a positive environment where people<br />
want to exceed expectations.<br />
Any tips for new recruiters coming to the region?<br />
I would say choose a business carefully, there are a lot of<br />
businesses here that don’t give the support and training<br />
needed. Pick a business with top performers, people to work<br />
with who will motivate you.<br />
Choose a company that has core values which match your<br />
own and pick a place which is fun to work. You will have to put<br />
in a lot of hours when you first arrive here so the environment is<br />
really important, it will either make you miserable or inspire you.<br />

With the blueprint of our thriving<br />
UK business as our guide, our new<br />
Dubai, <strong>UAE</strong> office has started with<br />
the same momentum<br />
“<br />
”<br />
Ten years ago, Mark Palmer and James Sanders established PSR Solutions Ltd. with the<br />
grand aim of becoming the UK’s most trusted construction recruitment agency. With<br />
offices in the Midlands and London, the company is going from strength to strength and<br />
we’re now seen as a leading agency in the UK having picked up a <strong>Recruiter</strong> HOT 100<br />
award and Investors in People accreditation in the last 4 months alone.<br />
Our aims continue to be as high as our standards<br />
of professionalism and with the blueprint of our<br />
thriving UK business as our guide, we are delighted<br />
to announce the launch of our Dubai, <strong>UAE</strong> office.<br />
With the new ‘Taqdeer Award’ launched in<br />
October 2015 by Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed<br />
bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and<br />
chairman of the Dubai Executive Council, which<br />
ranks construction companies by how well they<br />
treat their staff, now has never been a better time<br />
to join the construction workforce of Dubai.<br />
At PSR Solutions we have solid relationships with<br />
industry-leading construction firms based in the UK<br />
with operations in the Middle East and also <strong>UAE</strong> firms<br />
looking to employ construction professionals ahead<br />
of the mega infrastructure and tourism investments<br />
scheduled over the coming years. Projects might<br />
include building the next <strong>UAE</strong> super-structure for<br />
example.<br />
With Expo 2020 Dubai just around the corner<br />
closely followed by the country’s Golden Jubilee<br />
celebrations, there are over 25 million visitors<br />
expected, 70% of whom will be from overseas,<br />
to share in the themes of Mobility, Sustainability<br />
and Opportunity. The global event launches<br />
a sustainable vision for decades to come and<br />
highlights the progressive aspirations of the country.<br />
There has been AED30bn invested in the hotel<br />
and tourism industries, the drivers behind major<br />
construction investment, and analysts project a<br />
Compound Annual Growth Rate of 9.5% to 2016.<br />
We recognise that our candidates are the enablers<br />
for our clients. Without them, our clients would not<br />
be able to win business, meet targets and go on<br />
to grow into the industry-leading organisations that<br />
they are today. I firmly believe that recruitment<br />
agencies must take a sincere and committed<br />
interest in their candidates’ careers if they are to<br />
succeed. In the same way as I value every team<br />
member in our own organisation, I also understand<br />
that without the right team of construction<br />
professionals our clients’ businesses will not be in a<br />
position to take the lead ahead of their competition.<br />
PSR Solutions have always invested heavily in our<br />
highly specialised consultants arming them with the<br />
very best recruitment tools in the industry as well as<br />
unrivalled training in time-established techniques.<br />

The Middle East <strong>Recruiter</strong><br />

Vishal Patel<br />
Divisional Manager<br />
MENA Region<br />
2015 brought rapid shifts in business. From volatility in the Chinese markets to precipitous<br />
drops in the price of oil, businesses faced uncertainty. 2016 promises to continue advances<br />
in cloud computing that have helped a variety of organisations better correlate data within<br />
ERP, BI, and CRM.<br />
Interpro People has a unique perspective on the continued expansion of enterprise apps<br />
across the world, as a multi-national niche recruitment business, specialising in Enterprise Apps<br />
(EntApp), digital, and technology categories. Operating for 25 years, with over 100 specialist<br />
recruiters in 8 offices across 4 continents. Interpro’s EntApp division looks after SAP, Salesforce,<br />
Oracle, MS Dynamics, and others.<br />
The development of enterprise apps has been evident in the Middle East. Interpro Dubai’s Vishal Patel,<br />
an enterprise apps specialist who has worked in a variety of markets including London and Dubai, says<br />
the growth is coming, “as senior stakeholders involve themselves in the decision-making process on<br />
applications like SAP, Oracle & Dynamics.”<br />
Enterprise applications are a key recruitment point<br />
for many large, global organisations. The uniformity<br />
of the software means that there is a large potential<br />
pool of specialists who can help adapt the complex<br />
packages to the needs of a business. The challenge,<br />
says Interpro’s Oracle specialist Jamie King, is that not<br />
all of the talent can be locally sourced. “Sometimes the<br />
skillsets required for niche positions do not exist locally<br />
and I will have to extend my search abroad into more<br />
mature markets.” The sentiment is seconded by Petar<br />
Manakovski, who says “Two-thirds of hiring managers<br />
say they have struggled to attract candidates with the<br />
right hard skills, technical knowledge or experience.”<br />
“The development<br />
of enterprise apps<br />
has been evident in<br />
the Middle East.<br />
Growth is coming”<br />
Lacking access to that talent can cause some significant<br />
issues. Manakovski says, “A lack of appropriate specialist<br />
staff could hamper efforts to increase productivity, turnover and profitability, preventing the company<br />
from reaching its full potential.” The problem is not limited to the <strong>UAE</strong>, and the solution is one Interpro<br />
has been employing globally for over 25 years. Explains Manakovski, “It’s not about the availability of<br />
talent as much as it is about finding the right person for the job. Many employers are only considering<br />
‘active’ job seekers, when they should be tapping in to the wider candidate pool where the passive<br />
candidates are.”<br />

A passive candidate is someone who has all of<br />
the skills required for a position, however they are<br />
not actively looking. Manakovski says, “From the<br />
candidate side, the major difference is the fact<br />
that there are a lot of active candidates that will<br />
take on any role regardless of the organisation,<br />
location, carrier progression if the salary is right.”<br />
This creates a risk for employers because they<br />
don’t know if they’re making an investment in a<br />
person who will move on in a few months if an<br />
increased salary is offered elsewhere. By focusing<br />
on passive candidates, you are using a wider<br />
pool to find candidates who may be more stable.<br />
Dubai was a maturing market in 2015, something<br />
all three consultants agreed would continue in<br />
2016 as more mid-to-large organisations build<br />
internal enterprise application teams. Some<br />
of the growth is due to increased adoption of<br />
cloud-based technologies and new releases in to<br />
the market. Says King, “This will be a busy year as<br />
more organisations are increasing their budgets<br />
to develop bigger and better Oracle centres<br />
of excellence.” Manakovski says, however, that<br />
new releases will encourage development.<br />
“New versions of CRM 2016 and especially AX<br />
7 are going to be released this year. AX 7, with<br />
the new cloud services, have huge potential<br />
and have already attracted a lot of interest from<br />
large, well-known conglomerates within <strong>UAE</strong> and<br />
Middle East.”<br />
Ultimately, Patel thinks that growth will be limited<br />
by the people to run the platforms. “Within the<br />
SAP space more and more organisations are<br />
looking for skilled professionals who are able to<br />
turn-around failing transformation, optimize ERP<br />
environments, and are able to drive change<br />
management.”<br />
Hiring departments are increasingly challenged<br />
to determine if a person is able to do a difficult,<br />
highly-specialised position. Interpro specialises<br />
in finding niche candidates, says King, and<br />
that’s useful in a constantly-changing world<br />
of enterprise apps. “Being niche allows us to<br />
understand the market to a degree where we<br />
can dig in to candidate experience to ensure<br />
that they have a good understanding of the<br />
technology. The candidate, of course, has more<br />
nuanced technical expertise however a high<br />
percentage of my candidates are found through<br />
referrals. The technical aspects are generally<br />
backed by the referees.”<br />
There are many areas that are still developing<br />
and required in the market. Vishal Patel says that<br />
job seekers should brush up on, “SAP, Oracle and<br />
Dynamics as three key markets, and job seekers<br />
should look to understand the business, the<br />
processes, and engage stakeholders. These can<br />
contribute extensively to the candidate’s success<br />
in gaining a new and rewarding position.”<br />
A need for technical expertise is something<br />
echoed by Petar Manakovski. “The market is<br />
good, there is a lot of demand, and it is crucial<br />
that job seekers are always up to date with<br />
the latest versions and certifications as this is a<br />
moving market. Every year, new versions are<br />
being released from Microsoft so, to be on the<br />
top of the game, you have to keep up with the<br />
technology progression.”<br />
Clients are telling Jamie King that they want<br />
a strong communicator as well. “Any large<br />
company in the <strong>UAE</strong> is likely to have a high number<br />
of different nationalities and cultures. The diversity<br />
is great, however tailoring your approach based<br />
on the stakeholder and audience is something<br />
that should be taken in to account more often.”<br />
Cloud-based ERP, BI, and CRM systems are going<br />
to continue to be developed in the <strong>UAE</strong>. The<br />
technology is helping businesses better use the<br />
data they’re collecting. Because the platforms<br />
are emerging and constantly updating, finding<br />
people who are well-versed can be difficult. 2016<br />
and beyond will offer a great deal of opportunity<br />
for both businesses and specialists.<br />

JCA Associates main<br />
focus has always been<br />
around technology<br />
recruitment, which has<br />
been complimented by<br />
Engineering and Finance<br />
+ Accounting Divisions in<br />
the last 2 years. Currently<br />
working with both Multi-<br />
National and Regional<br />
organizations, we hire Mid<br />
to Senior level professionals<br />
across EMEA from offices in<br />
Dubai and Johannesburg.<br />
John Armstrong is the Founder<br />
and Managing Director of<br />
JCA Associates with over 15<br />
years of Technology recruitment<br />
experience in EMEA. Prior to<br />
JCA, John headed up the<br />
Telecom recruitment division<br />
of Greythorn in the UK before<br />
moving to Dubai to set up their<br />
office in 2007 where he has<br />
lived ever since.<br />
Over the last 8 years of living and working in the <strong>UAE</strong> I have<br />
noticed that the recruitment sector has come come a long<br />
way - in 2007 some companies were hiring from abroad on<br />
the strength of one telephone interview with very mixed results but<br />
after the downturn of 2009 a lot of these candidates were going<br />
back to their home countries. Since then, HR departments and<br />
Hiring Managers have become much more sophisticated in their<br />
recruitment processes with Psychometric testing, multiple interviews<br />
and reference checks becoming part of the hiring process.<br />
As an ISO certified company this is something that we actively<br />
encourage, with human capital at the heart of all businesses hiring<br />
the right people is essential.<br />
2015 has seen its challenges across all industries in the Middle East<br />
with a falling Oil price and regional tensions in certain countries,<br />
but as a whole we are still seeing growth and investment in this<br />
part of the world. What has changed this year is a higher sense<br />
of uncertainty which has in some cases resulted in a much longer<br />
recruitment process due to additional approval processes etc,<br />
but we have had a very busy Q4 and have made a number of<br />
placements right up until the final days of December. The Energy,<br />
Banking and Construction industries seem to have faced the<br />
most challenges this year but this hasn’t had a huge effect on our<br />
business. We have had some very positive growth in our company<br />
this year, with some highlights being around the people we have<br />
hired and the clients we are working with. As well as welcoming<br />
Grant Tarbet back to our business as a Regional Director for Africa,<br />
we have recruited James Barber; an Ex-accountant to head up<br />
our F+A division and Michael Toms to our Tech team who have<br />
all been great additions to the team. We have also made our first<br />
On-Site <strong>Recruiter</strong> placement with local telecom Operator Du with<br />
whom we are working very closely with.<br />
Going into to 2016 and beyond, we anticipate continued and<br />
steady growth in most sectors with a number of new clients looking<br />
to set up operations in the region – we are currently working with a<br />
number of tech companies right now with aggressive growth plans.<br />
JCA Associates are looking to grow its’ business in Africa and APAC<br />
as well as continued expansion of our client base in the GCC.<br />
A number of our customers have had their Middle East operations<br />
merged with either Europe or APAC, and with experience in both<br />
we are able to support growth in these regions. More locally, Saudi<br />
Arabia is a country that is facing huge challenges with budgets<br />
being put on hold across a number of projects, but one hopes that<br />
business there will pick up in H2. Iran is a country which is seeing<br />
vast opportunities for foreign investors thanks to recent legislation<br />
and we are already seeing a demand for talented professionals<br />
there. Here in the <strong>UAE</strong> there is clearly a lot of optimism around the<br />
upcoming Expo and 2020 vision which is bringing with it a large<br />
demand for new talent, so as we get closer to the event this will<br />
clearly intensify and we hope that this growth is sustainable.<br />

The Buzz around Talent in the <strong>UAE</strong> Never Stops<br />
ARTICLE BY Ali Matar - Head of LinkedIn MENA, LTS - Jan 2016<br />
The <strong>UAE</strong> is often seen as the most active<br />
labour market in the MENA region, and<br />
it has topped LinkedIn’s rankings of the<br />
countries that attract the most talent for<br />
two years in a row. While this year’s rankings have<br />
yet to be announced, we have been looking<br />
at our data and have found some interesting<br />
insights into where people are coming from<br />
and where they’re going to, and which industry<br />
sectors are gaining and losing the most talent.<br />
There has been a huge cultural shift in the<br />
average longevity of talent in the <strong>UAE</strong>. Years<br />
before, expatriates from Arab countries, South<br />
East Asia and the West moved here for the long<br />
haul, often spending their entire careers in the<br />
region, until retirement saw them move back<br />
home. Today, many professionals move to the<br />
<strong>UAE</strong> for a short career stint, as a way to build<br />
their international experience and expertise,<br />
or as a stepping stone to a more permanent<br />
expat life.<br />
So where are these professionals coming<br />
from? Asia continues to be the strongest<br />
supplier of talent for the <strong>UAE</strong>, with nearly half<br />
of all professionals coming from this continent.<br />
People from other Arab states moving to the<br />
<strong>UAE</strong> for their career account for less than a fifth<br />
of all incoming talent.<br />
And if they aren’t building 30-year careers<br />
in the <strong>UAE</strong>, where is this talent moving on to?<br />
Down under, apparently. The percentage of<br />
talent migrating to Australia from the <strong>UAE</strong>, by<br />
percentage of net movement, stands at a<br />
staggering 94.83 per cent!<br />

<strong>UAE</strong> 2016

Page 22<br />
All these professionals updating their LinkedIn profiles can also help<br />
spotlight the industry sectors that are attracting the most talent. In<br />
the last quarter, the sector that gained the most talent was the<br />
Oil and Energy sector, accommodating nearly a quarter of all<br />
incoming talent. This was followed by the aeronautical, automotive<br />
and transportation sector, which closely follows the increased<br />
investments in these areas that we are seeing in the <strong>UAE</strong>.<br />
The law of nature says that where there is gain, there must also<br />
be loss, and we have found that some extremely competitive<br />
fields are hiring less talent than previously. This could be due to<br />
migration, new job opportunities, or even due to organizational<br />
restructuring. Industries that are hiring less than this time last year<br />
include telecommunications, technology (software), government,<br />
education, and the not-for-profit organisations.<br />
The rankings of source and destination countries and of the industry<br />
sectors are by no means a statement on the effectiveness or<br />
success of these sectors, but they are an accurate reflection of the<br />
ebbs and flows in these sectors.<br />
Our exploration into the movement of talent on the LinkedIn<br />
platform shows that the <strong>UAE</strong> is a mature and dynamic labour market.<br />
There have been a number of policy-level and organizational<br />
decisions that have helped establish the nation as a premier talent<br />
destination, not just in the region, but across the world.<br />

‘‘<br />
Respect that an<br />
HR Manager has<br />
more than just<br />
recruitment going<br />
’’<br />
on in their day<br />
We speak with a senior HR Manager on their recruitment consultants & agencies<br />
“Hi, it’s (uae based recruiter) from ‘X’ Recruitment Company in Dubai. I just wanted to<br />
tell you why we are the best agency in Dubai and why we can help you with ALL<br />
your recruitment vacancies”........<br />
I hang up after my brief introduction to the fourth ‘best recruitment firm in Dubai’ that morning, fully expecting<br />
another 3 or 4 that afternoon all proclaiming that the world would be a better place should I choose to give<br />
all my vacancies to that recruitment agency on exclusivity.<br />
Back in the UK I had heard the same sales techniques day in and day out – the difference there though......<br />
<strong>Recruiter</strong>s were as grey and bland as the rainy day outside. So bleak, lifeless (especially on a Monday<br />
morning!). Now in Dubai there is usually a cheery soul on the end of the phone, more often than not a<br />
fellow Brit so we can have a good chat about our home towns and life in Dubai. From my experience with<br />
recruiters here in sunny Dubai most seem to enjoy their jobs, want to be calling, looking to converse and<br />
eager to assist, some actually do deliver very quickly. They get the repeat business.<br />
Over the course of my years here I have been assisted by various recruitment firms and unlike back home<br />
I can honestly say that I don’t have issues with many – we are all in the same boat here as expats after all.<br />
As an HR Manager I regularly call upon the services of a select 2 or 3 recruitment consultants and it becomes<br />
a friendship based on delivery & easing my duties and stresses. Well planned work allows recruitment<br />
consultants to do what they do best and earn some excellent commission for their hard sourcing.<br />
SO HERE ARE SOME DOs AND DON’TS FOR RECRUITERS IN THE <strong>UAE</strong>:<br />
HR LIKES<br />
Be positive on the phone<br />
Send a follow up email with your details<br />
Respect that an HR Manager has more than just recruitment<br />
going on in their day – wait for feedback, don’t follow up 5<br />
minutes after the interview<br />
Establish how the HR Manager prefers to communicate. As<br />
Gen Y we use text / email / even whatsapp occasionally – not<br />

15 Important Factors to Success<br />
in Recruitment and Outsourcing<br />
It is not easy to stay in the same company for<br />
a period of fifteen years “neither to get started<br />
from scratch as an administrative employee to<br />
become an Executive Manager nor to increase<br />
the number of employees throughout fifteen<br />
years from 5 to over four thousand.”<br />
I have lived through all this as a reality, “As a success<br />
story with Reach Company for Employment<br />
Services through fifteen years.”<br />
I will try to brief some of the important factors<br />
behind this success that have made this dream<br />
come true within fifteen years. Reach Employment<br />
Services has become one of the largest and most<br />
reputed companies in the United Arab Emirates.<br />
In short:<br />
Dedication: The success of the first group which was<br />
handled by our founder devoted himself to work hard.<br />
Working hard to build and develop the company and<br />
increase its projects is the main objective of all the<br />
employees.<br />
Building trust, loyalty and dedication among the employees<br />
which made them feel as stakeholders of the company.<br />
Sense of belonging, not only to the company, but also to<br />
<strong>UAE</strong> that gave us the opportunity to work on its home soil,<br />
land of good and giving. The company’s management<br />
have never thought to make a good fortune and leave. On<br />
the contrary, we have and still strive to provide excellent<br />
services to do our duty as a private sector company and<br />
to be part of the success story of the United Arab Emirates,<br />
which has become a magnet for the world’s business.<br />
The government sector – focusing on this sector gave us<br />
more exposure to stabilize and expand our portfolios.<br />
Client – by understanding the nature of each institution<br />
and their role in <strong>UAE</strong> we strive to give a personalised service<br />
while maintaining high levels of professional performance.<br />
Transparency – we developed a clear vision among the<br />
customers through contracts and job offers.<br />
Compliance with the law as the laws of the Ministry of Labour<br />
and the <strong>UAE</strong> are the constitution ruling our company. We<br />
abide by these laws in our relationship with our employees<br />
and clients, which made Reach Employment Services one<br />
of the leading companies abiding by laws in the <strong>UAE</strong>.<br />
Creating a professional teamwork. We have developed the<br />
concept of “More than a work place environment”. In order<br />
to give our employees a feel of home/family atmosphere.<br />
Managing the relationship with the outsourcing employees<br />
with full transparency. By informing the details of the<br />
outsourced employee’s contracts and our clients which<br />
has reinforced their confidence. We have also considered<br />
our outsourcing staff as our employees and clients. At the<br />
same time (the employee is treated as a client), making<br />
them as our best representatives.<br />
Humanitarian dealings with the needs and requirements of<br />
our permanent or outsourcing employees.<br />
Caring for customers while understanding their needs and<br />
work nature. Establish our strategic partnerships with them<br />
on the concept of permanent partnership not profit and<br />
loss.<br />
Within Reach Employment Services, we have adopted to<br />
take responsibility for the mistakes made by managers and<br />
management, and try not to make them the responsibility<br />
of our young employees derived from our believe in the<br />
partnership in decision making and responsibility.<br />
Granting administrative and financial support operations a<br />
special interest among directors, management and follow<br />
all of which enhancing the company’s ability to overcome<br />
the administrative and financial challengers that hinder<br />
development.<br />
Development of a special concept to deal with (lowincome)<br />
outsourcing employees because they are (the<br />
most important) employees in our company. Due to their<br />
inability to deal with work-life difficulties, we decided to<br />
open all the doors to meet with them and follow up their<br />
affairs as this made us able to deal with employees of<br />
different salaries ranging from 2000 AED up to 250,000 AED.<br />
“Within Reach Employment Services, our development is the<br />
result of our own concepts of excellence in providing services<br />
for our employees, clients and our staff who work overseas. This<br />
is how we achieved our success, and we will continue to strive<br />
towards further success”<br />

WE TALKED TO SIX<br />
RECRUITERSNEWTOMIDDLEEAST<br />
Like all of us here in Dubai, we all were newbies to the Middle East<br />
recruitment region at one stage. One of the most important pieces of<br />
advice given was “keep your head down and work very hard for the first<br />
6 months, Dubai is not what you know, it’s WHO you know”. That could<br />
not be a truer statement.<br />
Moving to Dubai from another region (in most cases the UK) is very hard<br />
professionally and also personally. We have spent years building our business<br />
networks and work within the safety net of our career to date. But moving to<br />
Dubai / Middle East all that hard work is gone and you have to now start a<br />
brand new life, new clients, new candidates along with new work colleagues.<br />
You need to actually work harder than ever.<br />
Now having seen many recruiters come and go, recruiters getting out of<br />
recruitment once they get to Dubai. To make an impact from day one you<br />
need to be confident and pick up that phone. Call, Call, Call. Dubai is a softer<br />
sell, not as cut-throat as UK / London. No gatekeepers really here.<br />
Remember that there are another 50 recruiters doing your sector so you need<br />
to stand out, work faster, work smarter, be PROACTIVE. You cannot afford to<br />
be reactive or you will find you only get the vacancies that the Tier 1 agencies<br />
could not fill and clients have been trying to fill for over 3-5 months. They are not<br />
clients or roles you want to be working on.<br />
LinkedIn is your best friend from day one in your new recruiter role. You want<br />
to be adding like crazy. HR Admin, HR Managers, HR Directors for your client<br />
side contacts then all your relevant industry sector connections for candidates.<br />
‘‘<br />
Don’t<br />
become<br />
an email<br />

Pick up<br />
the phone,<br />
make the<br />
calls<br />

Once you have connected with at least 2,500<br />
<strong>UAE</strong> connections you have started to build a<br />
good network. REMEMBER DON’T BE AN EMAIL<br />
RECRUITER. Reverse engineer your client contacts,<br />
pull the leads off LinkedIn and make the calls, a<br />
LinkedIn message is far too easy to delete, you want<br />
the new client to remember your name, hear your<br />
voice, arrange a face to face. Granted LinkedIn<br />
messages are professional in their capacity but<br />
you need to become a faster, smarter recruiter as<br />
50 other recruiters will be emailing or LI messaging<br />
that client, so be different.<br />
Set up LI groups also to increase your visibility.<br />
Make sure once you know your market, write<br />
regular factual, informative and to-the-point<br />
blogs / articles.<br />
TOP 5 CHALLANGES YOU<br />
MAY COME UP AGAINST<br />
WHEN STARTING YOUR NEW<br />
RECRUITMENT ROLE<br />
The agency may not have a database, or<br />
very old data. The likes of Huxley, Progressive,<br />
Robert Half are all exceptional examples of<br />
strong up to date databases due to their KPIs<br />
and targets.<br />
No PSLs signed up with major players or PSLs<br />
out of date with zero billing history with clients.<br />
Lack of recruitment job boards.<br />
Weak brand name in the market.<br />
Broken client relationships with agency.<br />
Getting on PSLs can take time so don’t be<br />
disheartened. In the Banking, Legal, Oil and<br />
Gas sectors it could take up to 8 months to get<br />
onto the PSL as you need to get sign off from the<br />
procurement departments NOT line managers. So<br />
in some cases there will be no quick wins. In this<br />
period you need good spot business as you don’t<br />
want to be a cost to the business after month 4.<br />
Rule of thumb is 6 months bedding in period for<br />
new recruiters into the region as any Director<br />
who actually knows the Recruitment World here<br />
in Middle East will have factored that into your<br />
development. In very rare cases an agency may<br />
give you 3 months to bill or .......<br />
BILLINGS<br />
Your first year of contingency recruitment in Dubai<br />
you should be looking at achieving 500,000 AED<br />
to 700,000 AED in Year 1, thats if you are an<br />
experienced recruiter AND if you are working<br />
for a strong brand in the region. The latter would<br />
denote a very good start to your <strong>UAE</strong> recruitment<br />
career.<br />
Year 2 - 600,000 AED 800,000 AED<br />
Year 3 - 800,000 AED 1.2M AED<br />
Year 4 - 1.2M AED<br />
1.5m AED<br />
If you are billing over 1 Million AED per year you are<br />
regarded a strong billing recruiter and really this is<br />
the industry standard. Billings under this is deemed<br />
below par. In Executive Search sectors you would<br />
be looking to double these figures with some Exec<br />
Search professionals billing in the region of 3M<br />
AED - 5M AED. This has been done yes!<br />
BIG BROTHER TALKING...<br />
A combined word of advice to all newbies, work<br />
comes first. Socialising comes at the weekends.<br />
Dubai recruitment world is all about networking<br />
but try NOT to make your networking on TUESDAY<br />
(ladies’ nights) This is a huge common factor to<br />
why recruiters fail and simply do not bill.<br />
Construction <strong>Recruiter</strong><br />
Oil & Gas <strong>Recruiter</strong><br />
Keep focussed on why you came to Dubai - TO<br />
PROGRESS YOUR CAREER, TO LEARN AND TO MAKE<br />
MONEY.<br />
Keep true to these values and you will find yourself<br />

Expected trends within<br />
recruitment in 2016<br />
James Collin, Head of Cobalt’s Dubai<br />
office, gives us his insight into the<br />
key trends for the financial services<br />
recruitment market in 2016.<br />
Financial markets fuelled by confidence<br />
There is a lot of talk around oil prices being<br />
low, property prices falling, a slow down<br />
in China, interest rate rises by the Fed and<br />
saturated debt markets. However, the key<br />
thing to remember is that markets have<br />
always been cyclical and everything has<br />
a tendency to be exaggerated in Dubai.<br />
Too much confidence was poured into<br />
market sentiment last year and the end of<br />
2014 and, conversely, too few are taking<br />
a balanced view right now. I believe that<br />
the end of 2016 will bring good news for<br />
investors who will take advantage of lower<br />
asset values and higher interest rates to<br />
get a higher rate of return by the end of<br />
the year.<br />
Candidate driven markets will continue to<br />
thrive for specialist recruiters<br />
At Cobalt, we have deliberately built a<br />
specialist recruitment business in all of our<br />
global offices that centre on notoriously<br />
candidate short markets and key areas for<br />
specialist skill sets. In 2016, the demand for<br />
these types of candidates from our clients<br />
across Banking, Finance, Procurement,<br />
IT, Construction and Professional Services<br />
shows no signs of slowing down in any of<br />
our core markets. In fact competition for<br />
global talent remains stiff and we spend an<br />
increased proportion of our time on new<br />
and innovative candidate attraction and<br />
management strategies that help us to<br />
attract the best candidates for our clients.<br />
Quality is paramount<br />
As in 2010, when market conditions<br />
were more challenging in financial and<br />
recruitment markets, only good quality<br />
firms and recruiters flourish. At Cobalt, we<br />
have focused more and more effort on<br />
maintaining the quality and integrity of<br />
our business in recent years and, despite<br />
the challenges, Cobalt has doubled in size<br />
in the past 5 years. This year sees our 15th<br />
birthday. From the beginning, our core<br />
values have always centred on delivering<br />
high quality results for our clients and<br />
candidates.<br />
The 4th Industrial Revolution<br />
The Digital age is upon us! Clients,<br />
candidates and the recruitment industry<br />
generally have embraced the move<br />
towards digital with social media and<br />
online advertising used by all. An<br />
understanding of exactly how to maximise<br />
digital tools in recruitment is a must for<br />
recruiters. In addition, companies are<br />
striving to maximise their brand and service<br />
opportunity within the digital landscape to<br />
align brand, marketing and operations.<br />
The acquisition of talented individuals<br />
within this space has been a priority for<br />
Cobalt’s IT division in the <strong>UAE</strong> in the past<br />
year.<br />
Looking ahead, I anticipate that the<br />
majority of 2016 will be a challenging year<br />
for those recruitment firms, and businesses<br />
generally, that do not have the quality<br />
to survive in a tougher market. However,<br />
there will still be great opportunities for<br />
smart companies and individuals.<br />
