Hiring in Saudi Arabia & the Gulf States
Brainfood World Tour is restarting, with a visit to a region where countries are in the middle of vast transformation. We hear a great deal about Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States, but always from the Western lens. What do local recruiters and HR people say and do, on the ground? We're going to learn from locals, ex-pats and partners alike in this week's episode of Brainfood Live On Air.
We will discuss:
- How does hiring differ in Saudi / Gulf vs outside
- What do recruiters new to the region must know first?
- Tactical level...what recruiting techniques are most effective for entry, individual contributor, senior manager, leadership hiring?
- What are the latest regulations with regards to gender, religion, ethnicity?
- Are there hiring quotas for employers in the region?
- What are the language requirements for candidates?
- What are the most important challenged Recruiters / HR need to overcome to succeed in Saudi Arabia / Gulf?
- What is going on with these mega infrastructure projects??
