Founded in 1988, the Higher Colleges of Technology (HCT) is the UAE’s largest applied higher educational institution, and the nation’s first approved university economic free zone, empowering it to graduate companies in alignment with the directives of the UAE’s wise leadership.
Approximately 23,000 students attend 16 men’s and women’s campuses in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, Al Dhafra region, Dubai, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah. Female students constitute 63% of the student body, which reflects the HCT’s key role in preparing Emirati females to contribute effectively to national development in the service of their country. Since 1991, the HCT has proudly awarded over 85,000 academic degrees to male and female graduates who have succeeded in applying the quality education gained during their study in HCT.
We are excited to invite you to participate in the upcoming HCT’s Virtual Emiratisation Career Fair, a collaborative event between the Higher Colleges of Technology (HCT) and JobsForNationals.com.
As one of the UAE’s leading employers, your participation in this virtual event will provide you with exclusive access to HCT’s UAE National Graduates and Alumni across the seven Emirates including People of Determination.
This is an excellent opportunity to showcase your company’s opportunities and engage with HCT’s talented Emirati graduates interested in rewarding careers.

Connect with our UAE National Graduates, including People of Determination, through LIVE video calls across the seven Emirates. These interactive sessions will allow you to gain deeper insights into each candidate’s background and aspirations. Additionally, you can request a copy of their resume during the call, facilitating a more comprehensive understanding of their qualifications and potential fit for your organization.
By blocking off time on your event platform calendar and sharing your availability for video calls in advance of the event, candidates will be able to schedule appointments with your team. This proactive approach ensures that candidates receive timely reminders for their appointments during the event, facilitating seamless interactions and enhancing the overall experience for both candidates and your team.
Engaging Candidates Through Gamification
Our virtual career fair will incorporate an exciting gamification element, allowing candidates to discover hidden badges throughout the event platform. These badges can be found in various locations, including booths and their associated content, encouraging exploration and interaction.
Additionally, we will feature a leaderboard that tracks candidates’ badge collections. This will not only showcase their engagement during the event but also foster a spirit of friendly competition among participants. The candidate with the highest number of badges will be recognized, adding an extra layer of motivation to fully engage with the event!
Advanced Analytics will provide comprehensive data on all candidate interactions, including the team members they engaged with, videos they viewed in your booth, documents they downloaded, and job links they clicked. This detailed insight allows you to assess candidate interest and engagement effectively.
Furthermore, if you are also posting your jobs on JobsForNationals, you will gain an additional layer of analytics from the JFN platform, enhancing your ability to track and optimize your recruitment strategies.
