Internships, fairs, and first jobs in Dubai.
Career fairs, recruiter evenings, CV clinics and the networking rooms in Dubai that are actually worth showing up to.
About this list
The graduate market in Dubai runs on rooms rather than job boards. A single afternoon at an internship fair in DIFC or Internet City puts you in front of more recruiters than a month of applications, and most of these events cost nothing to attend as a student.
Listed here are career fairs, employer evenings, CV and headshot clinics, and industry meetups open to students from any Dubai university. Each one shows the date, the venue, whether you need to register in advance and who is hosting it.

Questions students actually ask
The things people search for before they turn up.
Browse every eventThere are 6 listed at the moment, each with the date, time, venue, price and organiser on its own page. The list is ordered soonest first, so whatever is at the top is what is happening next.
Yes, 6 of the 6 cost nothing to attend. The rest are priced at student rates, and the price is on the card before you click.
Any student in Dubai, unless a listing says otherwise. Campus events are sometimes limited to that university or need a student there to sign you in, and where that applies it is stated on the event page. Age limits, where they exist, are listed too.
New career fairs and networking events are added as organisers submit them and as university societies publish their terms, and events drop off the list once they have happened. Register and you get told what is coming up rather than having to check.
