This is our first weekly list of real hiring news for Dubai and the UAE. We include only announcements from news sites and company pages that we could open and date. We do not copy job ads from unknown websites.
This week the list is short, and that is honest. The National reported in October 2026 that UAE hiring grew in the third quarter, but companies stayed selective after the regional conflict earlier in the year. The biggest news is in health care. Aster DM Healthcare plans up to 2,500 hires a year as it opens new hospitals, including one in Dubai Studio City. Etihad Airways is running cabin crew days in Asia this month.
Two items are for UAE nationals only, and one drive has already closed. We list them so you can see where the market is moving.
How to apply
- Apply only through the company’s own careers page, or through a recruitment agency licensed by MoHRE. Check our agency list first.
- Never pay to apply. Real employers and licensed agencies do not charge job seekers. Fees for “visa processing”, “interview booking” or “medical” before an offer are a scam sign.
- Check the job is open to you. Skip jobs marked “UAE nationals only” if you are an expat.
- Be careful with walk-in interview posts on unknown sites and WhatsApp groups. Confirm the date and venue on the employer’s own website or social media.
