DOHA: Qatar Career Fair (QCF) of Qatar Foundation has released the sixth issue of its annual bilingual career magazine, Career Guide.
The release coincides with the launch of the publication’s new interactive smartphone application, which can be downloaded via Apple Store and Google Play.
“The Career Guide aims to provide a wealth of information for Qatari youth, school and university graduates, parents, researchers and experts in the fields of career guidance and human development,” said Abdullah Al Mansoori, Director, QCF.
“The latest issue offers important professional advice to readers and insight into youth success stories in various sectors and industries.
“The guide is part of a wider plan that aims to promote and nurture a career culture among members of Qatar’s society, helping young people choose an occupation that aligns with their skills and aspirations, while making appropriate educational and professional choices,” he added.
Every year, 20,000 copies of the guide are distributed to provide advice and guidance to Qatar’s youth and promote a culture of career development within the local community.
This year’s 64-page issue offers information and tips from career development experts to those looking for assistance in negotiating the employment market.
The latest issue of the guide also provides an overview of programmes, initiatives and activities organised by QCF to support Qatari youth and help them make informed decisions that reflect positively on their academic and professional future. The magazine features five interviews with Qatar-based professionals who discuss their work in the fields of engineering, medicine, design, science and social networking.
By sharing their experiences, they provide an overview of skills required in each profession, and offer advice to young people looking to pursue a career in one of these fields.
The latest issue also includes tips on how to write an appealing CV and a cover letter that highlights skills and achievements of applicants.
Jobseekers will also learn how to write social media profiles.
Career Guide has been distributed to schools, universities and educational institutions across Qatar.
QCF also dispatched a specialised team to introduce the magazine to students at more than 10 Independent schools, and explain the objectives of the publication and its sections.
