NAJAH exhibition advises and prepares professionals to maximize potential and discover great job opportunities
Abu Dhabi, UAE, 7th October 2008: Professionals seeking positions to suit their strengths and interests should look no further than NAJAH Education Training Careers, an exhibition providing job-seekers vital resources and opportunities to connect with businesses looking for quality personnel.
NAJAH, the most comprehensive education, training and careers exhibition to be held in the UAE, will take place at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre from 19-21 October 2008. This year's exhibition features the expanded jobs.abudhabi.ae Careers Advice Lounge, which comes at a crucial time for professionals and businesses.
The current global economic market is in a state of transition following the failure of several financial firms in the United States, restructuring of Wall Street and falling international stock markets. While the region's financial institutions have thus far been largely unaffected, the UAE and Gulf region will not be immune to the ills in a potential global economic recession.
In times like these, a careful examination of job opportunities and career building options are extremely important, for veteran and first-time job seekers alike. Individuals should be well-informed about their own strengths and interests, and how they can maximize their potential to find fitting employment with benefits and job security. The jobs.abudhabi.ae Careers Advice Lounge facilitates this for NAJAH visitors.
Under the patronage of HH Sheikh Nahyan Bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, UAE Minister for Higher Education and Scientific Research, and supported by the Abu Dhabi Education Council and the Ministry of Education, NAJAH's jobs.abudhabi.ae Careers Advice Lounge will feature personal career counselling with qualified professionals, while there will be a separate area featuring interactive seminars to discuss available employment opportunities.
"NAJAH this year will be a vitally important resource, considering the expanding UAE job market and the shifting worldwide economic picture", said Christine Weaver, Exhibitions Director at IIR Middle East, the organisers of the event. "Job-seekers visiting NAJAH will find comprehensive career development seminars and programmes."
"Career building is one of the exhibition's main focuses. At the jobs.abudhabi.ae Careers Advice Lounge, career counsellors will help job-seekers identify particular strengths and skills, and how to direct those skills towards ideal career fields and directions. Professionals will also be able to interact firsthand with companies looking to hire, and get feedback on secure employment opportunities," Weaver continued.
NAJAH's Careers Advice Lounge is sponsored by jobs.abudhabi.ae, the official job website for Abu Dhabi. The site will serve as a forum for job seekers from around the globe as well as Abu Dhabi employers in the public and private sectors to connect.
The website leverages global best practices in the virtual job market arena to offer many features and functionality that facilitate job hunting and position filling processes. Additionally, the site will offer useful links and content on working and living in Abu Dhabi.
Building on the success of 2007, NAJAH is designed to bring direct contact between leading public and private sector organisations, educational institutions and proactive, resourceful young people.
The most comprehensive event of its kind ever to be held in the UAE, NAJAH is an excellent platform for school leavers, graduates, parents, job seekers, those seeking education opportunities abroad and HR professionals.
