Jobs4Bahrainis com gets rave reviews
Just weeks after its launch, Jobs4Bahrainis.com, the first private sector initiative dedicated to getting more Bahraini nationals into
the workforce, is already receiving excellent reviews from satisfied employers in the Kingdom.
Companies from a diverse range of business sectors have recruited Bahraini talent via the portal since its launch on 30 June 2010.
Claire Gaffney, Managing Director of the Bahrain branch of the international educational institute Kumon, said: “Kumon
Bahrain is committed to recruiting the best Bahraini talent, and we were delighted with the calibre of candidates on Jobs4Bahrainis.com.
We would not have come across the chosen candidates through other forms of recruitment. The speed with which CVs were made available is
another reason we would use the service again.”
Manfred Maske, Managing Director of Legal & General Gulf B.S.C. (c), provider of various insurance and investment products,
said: “As Legal & General Gulf is trying to localise its Gulf market presence, a key factor in our success is
local resources. Jobs4Bahrainis.com helped us meet recruitment needs and we look forward to hiring more talent from Job4Bahrainis.com
in the future.”
Marjo Rashid, Director of chocolate maker Dutch Delight, said: “Jobs4Bahrainis.com enabled us to find our Sales and Marketing
Executive within one month of posting our ad on the site, which is straightforward and has easy access and reference.”
Ali Daylami, Business Development Manager for Jobs4Bahrainis.com, said: “Positive feedback reinforces our belief that
Jobs4Bahrainis.com is a remarkable initiative which is meeting the diverse skills requirements of top employers in the Kingdom.
We will continue to enhance our services going forward, expanding our database of candidates and organisations.”
Jobs4Bahrainis.com is a joint venture between Gulf Connexions, a top Gulf recruitment company, and Al Hilal Group, Bahrain’s leading
publishing and marketing organisation.
