The award was presented by His Highness Dr Shaikh Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah, at the Fifth National Career Exhibition for the Banking and Financial Sectors. Consumer Bank Head, Nabeel Malik, received the award on behalf of Citibank.
The award has been developed by the National Human Resources Development Committee in the banking sector, which is chaired by the Minister of Communications, Ahmed Humaid Al Tayer and run by the Emirates Institute for Banking and Financial Studies (EIBFS).
It has been won by Citibank for the second consecutive year and shows that Citibank has successfully met the criteria set by the award organizers in key areas including Emiritization, development and training, career planning, communication processes, recruiting effectiveness and internship programmes.
Paul Ciejka, Head of Human Resources at Citibank, said, "Emiritization was successfully met by recruiting, training and retaining high quality local staff. These efforts fit well into the national policy of increasing the ratio of nationals to expatriate workers at key strategic sectors such as banking. By implementing a focused Emiritisation policy, Citibank contributed positively to the fast growth of the local workforce - increasing by 189 per cent between 1997 and 2002 - in the banking sector."
Citibank has been strategically positioning itself as an employer of choice in the UAE by running successful recruiting and internship programmes targeting local graduates. The ongoing Citibank Internship Programme (CIP) is a one-year intensive programme benefiting more than 30 students from top UAE universities.
