Recruiting online has never been better value or more effective, according to Bayt.com. The leading recruitment marketplace in the Arab World has reduced its rates by 10% exclusively for employers who buy its world-class services online.
Rabea Ataya, CEO of Bayt.com, said: “Employers are already saving up to 90% on their standard recruitment costs using Bayt.com’s proprietary online recruitment technologies. We’re delighted to offer a permanent 10% reduction to reward online payment and raise awareness of the benefits of buying online. That’s how confident we are in the service.”
Ataya added: “In fast-paced economies like the Gulf, speeding up the hiring process saves money and increases productivity. Online purchasing delivers even quicker access to the suite of Bayt services, and proprietary technology ensures that the payment and contact details of our clients are protected and kept completely confidential.”
Bayt.com’s database has more than one million professional jobseekers representing 94 industries, 116 nationalities, and all levels of experience and expertise.
Besides offering a vast choice of candidates, Bayt.com’s advanced filtering technology allows clients to search profiles according to 19 criteria, and results are instant. Most importantly of all, the technology is user friendly.
Bayt’s Rabea Ataya said: “The Internet is increasingly the first entry point into the labour market for professional jobseekers. A Bayt.com poll in April found that more than half of respondents now post their resumes only online. Less than a third visit recruitment agencies to present their CVs, and less than one tenth call companies directly for jobs.”
Ataya said: “With Internet penetration rates increasing in the region, online platforms now offer some of the best solutions to the recruitment challenges of Middle East business.”
More than 20,000 employers, including multinational companies and large regional enterprises, use Bayt.com’s services. IKEA, 3M, Federal Express, Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), Saudi Basic Industries Corporation, and Aluminium Bahrain are a small selection of the top companies that have provided enthusiastic testimonials on the Bayt website.
Waqas Hussain, Human Resources Manager at 3M, said: "Bayt.com won us over by walking the talk on delivering results, and their excellence in customer service. Bayt.com allowed us to accelerate our recruitment process exponentially at much lower costs, supported with world-class relationship management. We recently staffed a challenging position through Bayt.com in record time. We have a lot of confidence in their value and credibility, and look forward to a long-term relationship."
Gale Gove, Recruitment Manager of Dubai Ports, Customs and Free Zone Corporation, added: "Bayt.com has become an integral part of our recruitment process. It is a cost effective and efficient method for us to attract the right level of candidates. “
She added: “We contribute to the rapid economic growth of Dubai across a wide range of sectors; it is important for our recruitment partners to provide us with dynamic leaders to contribute to this growth - Bayt.com has been able to achieve this."
