Are you a highly skilled specialist doctor seeking to relocate to Dubai, or elsewhere in the United Arab Emirates?
A CV that showcases your skills and experience, relevant to the position you are applying for, is essential if you want to secure an interview.
The medical sector in the UAE requires specialist doctors who are self-motivated and flexible. Western-trained doctors, especially those with advanced fellowships post-specialisation are sought after to bring new skills and techniques to the region.
If you have teaching experience this is also beneficial.
Follow these CV tips to get noticed by potential employers:
- Use a short summary on the first page of your CV to highlight your skills and experience that align with the job description and person specification for the position you are applying for.
- Include your CCT, general medical council and specialist registrations, as well as any professional memberships and affiliations.
- If you have obtained your registration (proving your eligibility to work in the UAE) or medical licence if you are already working in the country, then don’t forget to include details.
- Mention if you speak additional languages apart from English. Arabic, being the local language, is especially appreciated, but also European or Indian languages, Mandarin or Russian.
