Jobs in Umm Al Quwain
The English translation of the emirate which is the smallest of all emirates is “mother of two powers”. The emirate has a population of less than 65 000 people. The emirate does not have much going for it in terms of jobs. It is a small emirate and if one looks at the global trend with small cities they usually do not have a lot of jobs.
The jobs that are there include engineering (that is civil and road engineers) the emirate is always improving its road network so as to be well linked with the major commercial powerhouses of the rest of the united Arab emirates, there is a lot of work in the construction industry as the small emirate does no want to be left behind in terms of development. Tourism is going to be the biggest employment sector in the emirate as the emirate is trying to position its self as a tourist destination for the local population and foreign visitors. Hospitality industry professionals like waiters, chefs and hotel mangers are some of the jobs that one can find in the emirate.
One can safely say that if you are into construction then you will definitely find a job in the United Arab Emirates. Translators, this is one job were professionals are also needed so as to bridge the communication gap between the locals and foreigner. Administration officers are job s that can be found inn the emirate as well, they are a lot of foreign firms that offer services from banking accounting to insurance. Security is another industry that needs a lot of professionals, the home affairs office in the emirate is the only government department that hires foreigners in because the local labor market can not cater for the demand. The emirate usually hires police men who are retired or have worked in some capacity in the safety and security sector.
There are not much jobs to look forward to in the emirate as it is very small and the unemployment rate tells you a lot about the place and the job prospects that are available.
