          and adaption by having our young

          The Emiratisation program at the AHG
        
        
          is a success due to the fact that we
        
        
          will be recruiting the “right” Emiratis.
        
        
          Candidates will be hired on their own
        
        
          merit, not simply to fill spaces. Once
        
        
          they’re part of the Group, they become
        
        
          “Habtoorians” and are evaluated based
        
        
          on their performance alone. It’s a career
        
        
          for life, we aim to train them and develop
        
        
          their skill set in order to motivate and
        
        
          retain them.
