Dubai-based airline Emirates Group, is the most popular employer for fresh university graduates in the UAE, followed by international consumer goods company Unilever, according to the latest research by GulfTalent.
The findings are based on GulfTalent’s survey of over 300 recent graduates and final-year students at UAE’s prestigious American University of Sharjah (AUS), which hosts a mix of both expatriate and local students from all Emirates.
According to the survey results, construction and finance are the most popular sectors for graduates, followed by consumer goods. The complete list of top-40 employers can be found in the full report.
The survey found a sharp divide in preferences by nationality. Among expatriate graduates an overwhelming 91% majority favour working for multinationals. By contrast, 63% of Emirati graduates opt for government-owned organisations.
Local UAE private sector firms appear to be the least desired option for both nationals and expatriates, the survey found.
ADNOC, Mubadala and Etisalat were voted the most popular employers among UAE national graduates.
