Held under the patronage of His Highness Dr Shaikh Sultan bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Member of the UAE Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah, the National Career Exhibition is an exclusive platform for UAE nationals to browse job opportunities in the UAE’s banking and financial sector.

Standard Chartered’s IG Programme is an intensive development programme that provides advanced learning experience supported by structured training modules such as on-job training, off-the job training, ongoing performance coaching, residential workshops and international job rotation. The bank looked out for exceptional Emiratis graduates for the IG Programme through walk-in interviews, which will empower UAE Nationals to build an outstanding career in the banking sector.
