Sarah was awesome, very knowledgeable and helpful in the process! Highly recommended I will use again without hesitation!
I had an amazing experience working with Farzana from Dr Expat. She was the only recruiter in Dubai who took the time to understand me and what I was looking for in a role. She kept me updated at every stage, supported me through interviews, and always encouraged me with kind messages along the way. Thanks to her support, I was able to secure my first role here in Dubai. I would highly recommend Farzana to anyone looking for a recruiter who is professional, supportive, and genuinely cares about her candidates. Thank you, Farzana!
Very professional service, highly recommended. I had my CV rewritten by Dr Expat and I had a very good impression.
