    The Challenge

    "A UAE job portal connects employers with job seekers across the Emirates. Job seekers need to find relevant roles fast and apply with a strong CV, and employers need an easy way to post jobs and manage who applies."

    A job portal lives or dies on search: people need to filter by emirate, sector and job type, and the portal needs its job and category pages to be found on Google. It also had to give job seekers a reason to come back, with free tools, and keep employers' hiring simple.

    Our Approach

    We built the portal in Next.js with a Node.js backend: the job seeker experience, the CV builder and salary insights tool, the employer side for posting jobs and managing applicants, and the backend, admin panel, job alerts and SEO-friendly job and category pages behind it.

    What we built

    Job search with filters by emirate, sector and job type, job pages, applications and candidate profiles; a free CV builder and salary insights tool; employer sign-up, job posting and applicant management; and the Node.js backend with an admin panel, job alerts and SEO-friendly job and category pages.

    Search built around how people look for jobs

    Job seekers in the UAE search by emirate, sector and type of role. We built search and filters around those choices, with a page for every job and category pages that are built to rank in search, so people find the portal and then find the right role.

    • Filters by emirate, sector and job type
    • A page for every job
    • SEO-friendly job and category pages

    Free tools that bring job seekers back

    A strong CV and a sense of what a role pays make job seekers more confident. We built a free CV builder and a salary insights tool, so candidates have a reason to create a profile and return.

    • Free CV builder
    • Salary insights tool
    • Candidate profiles and applications

    The employer side

    Employers need hiring to be simple. We built employer sign-up, job posting and applicant management, so companies can publish roles and review candidates in one place.

    • Employer sign-up
    • Job posting
    • Applicant management

    Backend, admin and alerts

    Behind the portal, a Node.js backend powers the APIs, an admin panel for the team running the portal, and job alerts that tell candidates when relevant roles appear.

    • Node.js APIs
    • Admin panel
    • Job alerts

    The Outcome

    Job seekers across the Emirates can search, build a CV and apply in one place, employers can post jobs and manage applicants, and the portal's job pages are built to be found in search.
