Guidance for applicants

These are suggestions from the ConstruBIM editors, not requirements set by the employer.

• The Senior Resident Engineer posting asks for a civil engineering or related degree, at least 20 years of progressive infrastructure and site supervision experience, and knowledge of UAE construction regulations.
• Show site supervision records, such as inspections, quality checks and reporting on large projects, since this is central to the senior role.
• The Quantity Surveyor posting does not list separate qualifications; evidence of site cost control, payment and variation work on construction contracts is the most relevant proof.
• For the Land Surveyor role, show experience with control networks, traverse closures and survey instruments, and with supervising survey crews.
