Dubai Islamic Bank aims to achieve 45% emiratisation by year end

In a move to support its 2010 expansion strategy, Dubai Islamic Bank (DIB) announced yesterday that it is aiming to achieve 45 per cent emiratisation by December. The announcement was made at the 10th Annual Dubai Career Fair, held on March 28-30 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.

The DIB also participated at the recent Sharjah National Career Exhibition, where it received 1,270 applications from UAE nationals. As a response, the bank organised a two-day recruitment drive, having narrowed down the applicants to 70.

With its recent participation at the University of Dubai's first career fair, together with the exhibition in Sharjah and the recently concluded Annual Dubai Career Fair, it expects to receive 500 CVs daily, said the bank.
