Dubai's private sector is finally back to hiring. For the first time in 12 months,
00:05
the retail sector was adding more jobs all through January. It looks like the fast-tracking
00:10
of the COVID-19 vaccination program seems to be injecting the right dose of confidence.
00:15
The job creations were taking place even without sales happening at optimum levels.
00:20
Interestingly, the retail and wholesale sector were the best performing,
00:24
obviously benefiting from the continuation of various sales promotions, like DSF.
00:29
Local market sources confirm that hiring activity, particularly at entry level,
00:34

00:43
So if you're looking for a job, now might be a good time to apply.
