With a current workforce of more than 1,500 employees, GE's growth strategy for the region is powered by concerted localization initiatives and reflects its operational ethos of working hand-in-hand with local governments for socio-economic development.

GE is at the forefront of working with universities to develop industry-based curricula that empowers graduates to perform efficiently at the workplace in the UAE.

Annually, GE spends some $1bn (Dhs3.67bn) on training and education programs for its employees worldwide. Most recently, GE launched the 'Come Join GE' micro-site to strengthen local recruitment and enhance employee participation to achieve the company's growth goals.

Nabil Habayeb, GE's President and CEO for the Middle East and Africa region, said:
"GE is regarded as an Employer of Choice globally and offers a strong platform for the personal and professional growth of its employees. GE's participation in this year's Careers UAE is a reiteration of the importance of the UAE market to our operations."
