The National Human Resource Development and Employment Authority (Tanmia) is participating in Tawdheef 2007, Abu Dhabi's first recruitment show.

The three-day event, which began yesterday (May 15) at the new National Exhibition Centre, features seminars, exhibits and networking opportunities for UAE nationals to interact directly with employers, recruiters and managers from several of the region's leading companies, said an official spokesman.

Tawdheef 2007 has gathered organisations from various sectors, including the government, financial services, training, education, recruitment agencies, hospitality and tourism, oil and gas, commerce and trade groups, transport, aviation and others.

'Tanmia is pleased to extend its support to Tawdheef 2007, which is set to be among the top recruitment events in the UAE. Tanmia is committed in its efforts to provide the best employment opportunities for UAE Nationals and to significantly enhance their contribution to the country's economic progress, by making them an integral part of the workforce,' said acting general director, Tanmia, Feddah Lootah.

During Tawdheef 2007, Tanmia representatives will provide valuable information to participating companies and visitors about Tanmia's services. They will also focus on educating jobseekers visiting Tanmia's stand about making use of the authority's comprehensive web portal that helps Nationals access the job market.
