SOS Recruitment Dubai

Postby shawarma on 15 Feb 2008, 12:19

SOS Recruitment Dubai is an employment agency in Dubai that we thought was a good one. However, they are listed as "Excellent" by the very questionable Dubai Employment Board (DEB), which, perversely, is a negative reputation indicator as far as we're concerned. It makes it look like SOSRecruitment are now good mates with the infamous Jobs In Dubai organisation. It's quite possible that SOS might have been listed in the DEB database through no fault of their own. If anyone from SOS Recruitment is reading this, we'd be very interested in seeing a reply here with your comments about the DEB.

Other indicators are good for SOS Recruitment in Dubai so we'd suggest that potential job applicants don't necessarily run away from them, but just tread a little more carefully and watch out for any job application fees (which shouldn't be charged in Dubai and the UAE). And of course, if you have a story to tell about SOS Recruitment, good or bad, this is the place to do it :) ...

Well well well. Apparently they are. I just found a press release (dated 09 June 2007) saying that Jobs in Dubai Inc, "a leading supplier of e-recruitment services" was merging with SOS Recruitment. Well that might help explain the high rating for SOSRecruitment on the Dubai Employment Board (DEB) website that appears to be run by Jobs in Dubai. I am surprised that SOS Recruitment would align themselves with Jobs in Dubai :shock: . But that probably also explained why this topic didn't attract any response from SOS Recruitment themselves in the end.

Press release follows ...
