Dubai’s job market is thriving, opportunities are everywhere, competition is fierce, and companies are hiring faster than ever. But here’s the catch: people are no longer just chasing salaries, they’re searching for something that actually matters.
In this episode, we sit down with Melody Sheybani, Group HR Director at Americana Foods, who about how short-term hiring mindsets are shaping careers and company culture.
We explore:
↳ Why companies in the GCC keep hiring for speed, not long-term growth.
↳ The loyalty gap and how it’s reshaping the modern workforce.
↳ What Gen Z really wants from employers (and why most companies still don’t get it).
↳ The myth of plug and play hiring and its hidden cost to culture.If you’ve ever wondered why finding a good job in Dubai is hard, this episode will change how you see work, loyalty, and success in Dubai’s fast-moving market.
