The number of Dubai expats actively seeking employment is at an all-time high post the COVID-19 pandemic-related layoffs and crashing market that has dangerously threatened livelihoods, as well as the global economy.

As coronavirus cases soared across the country starting April 2020, uncountable Dubai residents fell victim to redundancies, pay cuts, loss of business and a cut off on all means of income. However, youngsters and expats remained resilient by fighting their way through these difficult couple of months with little to nothing to survive on and have once again started job hunting.

Now that various companies have overcome their ‘hiring-freeze’ phase and have started advertising job vacancies in the city, hopeful job seekers have flooded to these portals to submit their applications in hopes of being given an opportunity to re-start their careers.
