The number of open jobs in Dubai will bounce back in mid 2009 according to research commissioned by Jobs in Dubai, a leading Dubai Jobs portal at jobsin-dubai.com. As the number of advertised new and open jobs in Dubai cooled in early 2009, jobsin-dubai.com interviewed 200 Dubai based HR managers. Many managers indicated some organisations may have over cut positions and may not be in a position to capitalise on a projected late summer up-turn in the international economy.

Jobsin-dubai.com has seen an increase in the number of job postings for new jobs in Dubai at entry level positions and expects more senior jobs positions to be posted once the global economy re-enters a growth cycle.
