In line with the company’s plans approved by the Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates to achieve a 10% Emiratisation ratio of its work force; a number of officials from the Human Resources Department in Al Fardan Exchange conducted initial interviews with a number of undergraduates and graduates of the Women’s College in order to directly recruit qualified ones. The interviews also aimed to give the female Emirati students the chance to be exposed to job vacancies, and become more involved with the job market, in order to achieve the ultimate goal of preparing a generation of Emirati youth that can preserve the heritage of their forefathers, and seeks to develop such heritage to compete with other societies.

“The recruitment plan the company is implementing in the coming period includes an increase in recruiting UAE nationals in order to reach a 10% Emiratisation ratio, and even going beyond this percentage if qualified and experienced young men and women willing to work are found. We are working on recruiting more UAE nationals to raise the Emiratisation rate in all specializations in the coming period,” said Osama Al Rahma, General Manager, Al Fardan Exchange.
Being a leading national company in the financial sector, Al Fardan Exchange will continue supporting the national cadres and give them the opportunity to play their role and contribute to strengthening the national economy, each in his/her field of specialization. The company will also work on building their capacities and knowledge to make them capable of dealing with developments in our field of work, locally, regionally and internationally.”
