Here's what some of our exhibitors had to say about NAJAH 2011:
- "Musanada has been very busy over the last three days and has received a huge amount of interest in the graduate trainee programme that we launched at NAJAH. We have already received more than 100 online applications."
Nina Hoffman Recruitment Manager - Musanada
- “Our objective was to come and meet young Emiratis and introduce them to a career in shipping and logistics. NAJAH provides us with the perfect platform to do this as usually it is difficult for us to meet Emiratis otherwise. Bringing them all together under one roof has been ideal, and the event has been very successful in that regard”
Flavia Ross, Regional HR Manager - APL Logistics
- “NAJAH is a very important part of ENDP’s goal of building partnerships between the private sector and UAE Nationals. The event is instrumental in elevating long-term recruitment and retention of UAE nationals into the private sector. We are proud to be official supporters of the event..”
Essa Al Mulla Executive Director for National Work Force Development, Emirates National Development Programme
- “This edition of NAJAH has been one of the busiest that we have participated in. The event is crucial in helping us attract the right calibre of students, and we have received a lot of interest in our programmes from prospective students. The event has been the best in terms of generating awareness of our University”
Khalifa University of Science & Technology
- “NAJAH has been very useful in terms of building awareness of CampusFrance and AllianceFrancais and the scope of our activities. It has also provided us with a chance to network with other local universities in order to develop ties between them and French universities”
Claire Bertolotti, Head of CampusFrance, Abu Dhabi
- "We are very happy with the event this year, and intend to return next year. We are regular exhibitors at other education fairs, but NAJAH is leagues ahead primarily because the event attracts more of the right type of visitors. The questions and feedback that we receive from students are very forward – they know what they want.."
Canadian University of Dubai
- "NAJAH has been a great event for us this year, and a great stage from which to launch our internship programme and Middle East careers website. Interest has been huge, and we are very happy with the organisation and quality of visitors."
Hiba Balfaqih, Philips Middle East
