ABOUT CAREER CENTER

The Career Center was established with the intention of establishing an effective and efficient link between the businesses and academic communities in order to facilitate and boost employment rates amongst young Saudis in the local labor market. The key role of this center is to align the needs of the employers with those of the academic community and assist employers in opening career doors for young graduates.
