About the Client

A leading real estate marketplace in the GCC, connecting millions of property seekers and real estate professionals across the region.

The Problem
The Challenge

A leading real estate marketplace in the GCC was receiving thousands of job applications from all over the world, making it extremely difficult to distinguish strong candidates quickly and confidently.

1

Global Talent Pool

Candidates came from different countries, making it hard to evaluate the credibility of their schools or previous employers without extensive manual research.

2

Career Assessment

Each CV required checking whether the candidate had stable career progression, impactful contributions, and an entrepreneurial mindset.

3

Culture Fit Issues

Even after long interview processes, some candidates who passed technical and case rounds were rejected later for poor culture fit, resulting in wasted time and resources.

Our Approach
