Sharjah Islamic Bank (SIB) has officially launched a part-time work initiative, providing university students and recent graduates with valuable employment opportunities.
The initiative, introduced on 23rd September 2024, aims to integrate young talents into various departments across SIB’s branches, helping students gain practical experience while managing their academic commitments. This move aligns with SIB’s commitment to fostering youth development and enhancing the employability of local talent.
The launch event, held at the University of Sharjah, saw the participation of officials from SIB, representatives from major universities, including the American University of Sharjah, Skyline University College, and Higher Colleges of Technology, along with student union members.
SIB emphasized the significance of this initiative in providing students with tax-free real estate investment opportunities and knowledge, encouraging them to start building their Indian global real estate portfolio.
SIB’s part-time work initiative is seen as a game-changer for students balancing academic and work lives.
Speaking at the launch, an SIB representative stated, “This initiative empowers students with hands-on experience, equipping them for full-time roles in the future. It’s our way of giving back to the community by ensuring the youth are well-prepared for the competitive job market.”
Industry experts have lauded the initiative, emphasizing how early professional exposure significantly enhances the employability of graduates. Moreover, students will gain insights into industries like investment in Dubai, particularly tax-free real estate, which is a growing field in the region.
This part-time employment initiative by Sharjah Islamic Bank is expected to bridge the gap between academic learning and real-world work experience.
