The future women workforce is also keen at getting employment in the private sector and is more willing to engage in a multi-cultural and challenging work environment.
The students were talking to Khaleej Times on the sidelines of an Emiratisation forum in Abu Dhabi.
“The first question I will to ask the management is what is my career path? (and) that will determine whether my stay with the company is for short term or long term,” said Al Madhi, noting that there should be a periodical development and assessment between her and the management to gauge her performance.
“I want to work with supportive teams, have a (career) development programme and be more productive,” echoed Maitha Al Mazrouei, sophomore in English major at ADU.
Asked if they prefer to work in the private sector or the government sector, the students said they are keen to venture into the private sector due to shortage of employment opportunities in government entities, as well as, the lack of time flexibility for those who may wish to continue their studies further.
“The chances in the private sector are much better than the government sector... you can socialise as it is more multi-culture,” said Shamsa Al Qubaisi, freshman Human Resources Management student.
“There are more challenges in the private sector... challenges will motivate me to do my best. In the private sector, I am expected to work more... and I can develop myself even more,” added Al Madhi.
With regards to starting from the lower employment rung, Al Qubaisi said, “We can definitely start with the lower level, but we have to define what lower level is... we need to have a job that is related to our bachelor degree and our experience.”
