Make a Thursday evening appointment with Eye on Careers

Let’s face it, we’re really rather blessed here in the UAE when it comes to our professional portfolios. In many places around the world CVs are being hard hit, whether by the tricky US job market or Euro Zone crisis and it’s no coincidence that people are arriving here in their droves, intent on finding work even if the job at hand doesn’t quite tick every one of the boxes. For many it’s time to embrace something of a career change – where else can you jump from journalism, to PR, to HR without those proverbial eyelids seemingly being batted?

Things are also looking up when it comes to overall outlook. A bunch of recent surveys rank the UAE with a resounding thumbs-up. We currently fly the flag for one of the world’s top 10 most confident nations. A sure case of optimism on overdrive!

But, the truth be told, not everybody can find a job. Not everyone is happy in their chosen career. Not everyone likes their boss. And when it comes to hiring, firing and dancing the merry job jig, it really does come down to timing – and a little bit of good advice. And that’s where Eye on Careers comes in.

A new show, broadcasting every Thursday from 20.00 and 22.00 Eye on Careers is your one stop shop when it comes to employment. Whether overcoming those hiring handicaps, refreshing that resume or becoming savvier with social media. It’s a chance to re-evaluate your skill set, whether starting out or side-stepping at C-level.

As a leading executive search consultant in the MENA region presenter Shane Phillips will bring case studies to life, chatting to the biggest names in the business. It’s an opportunity to get a sneak preview in to previously unchartered career history, with insight in to home grown success stories from leading CEOs and business greats.

Every week there’s also the chance to step in to the Career Clinic, where career management strategies will be used to help drive vocational victory, marking every day scenarios, and every day stresses.

If you would like to get career advice, or would like to be part of the show then email eyeoncareers@arn.ae.
