KUWAIT CITY, May 18: Zain received a recognition from the American University of the Middle East (AUM) in appreciation of its ongoing efforts to empower the local job market with skilled national talent capable of leading Kuwait’s digital future. The recognition was presented during the university’s annual Excellence Awards ceremony honoring leading companies, held at the Cultural Center on its Egaila campus.
During the event, Tareq Al-Othman, Chairman of HumanSoft Holding, presented the award to Hamad Al-Musaibeeh, Corporate Relations Department Manager at Zain Kuwait, in recognition of the company’s continuous support of the AUM Career Expo. Zain recently sponsored the expo’s 11th edition, which was also attended by AUM President, Prof. Dr. Georges Yahchouchi.
The award highlights the strength of the long-standing partnership between Zain and AUM, and Zain’s strategic role in consistently attracting and developing national talent for the private sector. This contribution helps strengthen the presence of local competencies in the job market, especially in skillsets related to STEM.
Zain expressed its gratitude to AUM for this recognition, viewing it as a meaningful acknowledgment from one of the country’s leading academic institutions of the company’s role in supporting the development of both education and human capital, two key pillars for advancing Kuwait’s economy.
Zain recently participated in the 11th AUM Career Expo, organized by the university’s Career Development and Placement Center (Tawteen), under the theme “We Believe in Talents, We Create Opportunities”. The event stands as one of the largest and most prominent career fairs in Kuwait, with participation from over 55 local and international organizations offering more than 300 job opportunities for graduates and job seekers.
At its dedicated booth, Zain showcased its recruitment policy and available career opportunities, while also introducing university students to its Future University Network (FUN) internship program, aimed at providing hands-on experience from the actual workplace environment.
Through such initiatives, Zain aims to energize the local labor market, foster the exchange of knowledge and expertise, and enable young people to find career paths that match their ambitions and capabilities, ultimately contributing to the national economy and boosting national talent participation in Kuwait’s private sector.
