When folks want to startup and ask for programmers but only get a bunch of snake oil salesmen who know "AI expertise" or "blockchain" but have a degree and background in marketing. Way too common in Dubai especially. Every time someone asked me, I always referred them to India or Pakistan, since I never knew where the Arab coders are. That is until now.
Oh got it, didn't realize you were in Dubai. Makes sense now! We've been happy to see a growing community of strong tech companies & startups there (e.g., Noon, Careem, Ziina) and were surprised to find how much they value our service. Even for companies intimate with the region it can be hard to identify the top talent, so they appreciate our curation & vetting.
I'm not in Dubai actually. I usually travel to Abu Dhabi though, but I am in touch with the Dubai tech scene, so it's a common refrain that I hear from folks there.
