Global Recruiters, Dubai, UAE
Global Recruiters is the name of what appears to be a job recruitment organisation in Dubai. We say "appears" because there are several indicators that make us question whether they really do what they claim, in addition to numerous forum postings on the internet from people who claim they have been victims of a scam or con from a Global Recruiters / Global Recruitment Resources organisation. Note that there are several organisations with similar names around the world, that are not connected to the dubious Dubai agency.
Other worldwide Global Recruitment organisations, not related to Global Recruiters Dubai
- Global Recruiters Network (GRN) - appears to be a legitimate organisation with offices or franchises around the world, and no connection to the Dubai Global Recruiters
- Global Recruiters of ... - GRN Global Recruiters Network franchise offices are called GRN Global Recruiters of ... that city (or state, or country?). If someone ever establishes a GRN Global Recruiters of Dubai, it could become confusing.
- Global Recruitment Agency - based in India or Senegal? Seems to operate in the same way as the Dubai Global Recruiters. Be careful.
- Global Recruitment Resources Corporation - based in New Jersey, USA. Doesn't seem to have any connection with the Global Recruitment in Dubai
- Global Recruitment Solutions Canada (GRSC) Inc - unknown
- Global Recruitment Solutions Cyprus (GRS) Ltd - unknown
- Global Recruitment Specialists - based in USA, unknown.
- Global Retail Recruitment - a UK based organisation, not connected to the Dubai Global Recruitment organisations
Global Recruitment Dubai organisations
- Global Recruiters - the original questionable outfit
- Global Recruitment Resources - Global Recruiters renamed in 2007 or 2008?
- Global Recruitment Consulting Ltd - based in Dubai, unknown
- Global Recruitment Services - looks like a different and unrelated organisation based in Dubai. Tel +971-4-3350078, PO Box 34761, www.global-recruit.com. Unconfirmed if genuine or not. Latest news update on website is from 2007.
The Global Recruiters outfit that Dubai teachers should be concerned with, says on their website that they have offices in Dubai and London. The Dubai office address doesn't make sense to us for a number of reasons, and indicates at the very least, an unfamiliarity with Dubai that should be a warning sign to any job applicants. Here's a list of organisations that may or probably have connections to Global Recruiters (and the relevant discussion topic in the forum where you can add your own comments, and read previous comments)...
- Global Recruiters UAE
- Global Recruiting Resources
- Atika Language School
- Baheera Language School
- Deira Homeland School
- Khaimah Language School
- Shila Pet Farm
- Wisaam School - (Wisaam International School or Wisaam Language School)
- Zafirah Language Institute
Other possible job scams (might not be directly associated with Global Recruitment but all the red flags are similar or the same)
- Adult Education Student Studies Sharjah
- Dubai British School teaching job scam - DBS really does exist but someone has misrepresented them in an attempt to dupe teachers.
- Mu Idris English High School - unknown if anything to do with Global Recruiters but the job package offered sounds similar, and the school is not found on any official lists of schools in Dubai.
- UAE Ministry of Education Student Studies
- Zina Language School

There were also hospital jobs advertised by Global Recruiters which appeared to be for a non-existent hospital. This page will be updated when we find out more.
Some of the websites that appear to be connected to Global Recruiters. Note the clever way they've got official looking websites for a couple of UAE government organisations - they have even framed the official website in their own website to give them an air of legitimacy. The domain extension .tk is for the Tokelau Islands, and the domain names are available free to anyone on request.

Update February 2008
The Gulf News (a UAE newspaper) investigated Global Recruiters and called them a bogus/scam operation, and the UAE authorities said they would block some of the Global Recruiters websites (which is only effective in the UAE though).
