International Islamic was keen to recruit more Qataris and place them in appropriate positions at various levels in the bank,
said CEO Abdulbasit A al-Shaibei.
“Currently we have a Qatarisation rate of about 40% in the top management level and an overall 20%. We wish to increase this
further,” he said on the sidelines of the second ‘Career Day’ hosted by International Islamic at the Sheraton yesterday.
“Recruiting Qatari males and females is a strategic decision taken by our human resources department and we ensure that recruited
candidates are provided with appropriate training and they benefit from career enhancement and suitable promotions, al-Shaibei
said.
Al-Shaibei said International Islamic was inviting Qataris with a General Certificate of Education and a university degree to
attend the event at the Sheraton from 8am to 3pm until tomorrow.
During ‘Career Day’, job seekers will be interviewed by a screening committee, which will shortlist qualified candidates for the
available positions.
Last year, al-Shaibei said more than 60 Qatari males and females were hired through the initiative.
“We expect to sign up more Qataris this year,” he said.
