Having an MBA once guaranteed you a high-flying job with an even higher salary. But that’s not necessarily true anymore. In the wake of the global recession, there are now more skilled jobseekers than there are skilled jobs. But that’s not deterred record numbers of students applying for MBAs this year. But why?

UAE airline industry provides service to virtually every corner of the globe, and has been an integral part of the creation of  the local economy. The industry is a major economic force  in the country, both in terms of its own operations and its impacts on related industries such as aircraft maintenance, tourism, advertising and other related services.

The global financial crisis has impacted severely on airlines and airline labour in UAE. The crisis has resulted in job reduction programmes and alterations to work. Between May 2008 and May 2009, jobs were cut at several of the major  UAE  airlines. Aside from job losses, employees have been affected by reduced working time. These policies were evident at Emirates Airline, where  employees were asked to take  months unpaid leave.

Already deep in the first quarter of 2010, the airlines job market is evidently beginning to stabilize and new position openings are even posted online.
