A total of 19,000 teaching positions will be announced soon for male and female teachers, according to Deputy Minister of the Civil Service, Dr. Abdulrahman Bin Abdulmuhsin Al-Abdulqader. The female positions will be announced this week, added Al-Abdulqader. He urged Saudi job-seekers to continue to develop their skills so that they can get jobs. “Healthcare and social and educational services are promising sectors that are growing and require employees. This will continue for years to come. Our economy is strong and growing, and national companies need qualified manpower.” However, he added that government job opportunities are linked to actual need.
