What an amazing evening we had hosting our Annual Career Networking event and joined by many of our students, alumni and corporate partners as well as key leaders in the HR industry.
The event opened with a briefing presentation by Ted Raffoul, Career and Workforce Products Business Leader – MENA at Mercer, on the employment and hiring trends in the region as well as in the UAE.
Following the presentation, a panel discussion featuring regional business leaders shared their views and experiences on the realities of the current hiring trends, the future of work and the job market challenges and opportunities.
The panel was moderated by our alumnus Usama Nouri, Director – Creative Technology at DXB LIVE.
Thanks a lot to our panel speakers:

Rashid Alhosani, Director – Technology Consulting at PwC
