Hello everyone,

Where is the best place to start when looking for a job in Kuwait? Is it better to job-hunt by directly contacting the company of your interest, or should job-seekers rely on a recruitment agency, for example?

Are there any unique aspects that job-seekers should consider when preparing their CV/résumé and cover letter? Should a photo be included?

Do you have any tips on interview conduct in Kuwait? Are there any particulars, such as greetings or behavioural customs?

In you opinion, is knowledge of the local language or a regional language necessary to successfully apply for a job? What level of the language should job-seekers have mastered?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

Hello

looking for job in Kuwait depends on which Country to come.
In Middle East region, if you belong to the Lebanese, Egyptian, Indian, Filipino communities you have the chance through relatives or friends who indicate which companies are hiring personal.
The same possibility exists for the British, Americans and Australians communities.
For all others, the best solution is to go through the major British, Indian, Arab etc.. recruitment agencies.
Even through Embassies there may be opportunities.
CV, Cover letter, good photo (card type), spoken and written English language is the minimum requirement.
Good look !!
