The Ministry of Labor has launched the first phase of a new online platform called “Ooqool” with the aim of helping university graduates in Qatar find jobs in the private sector. This is part of the ministry’s efforts to modernize recruitment and support young talent.

The platform was created in collaboration with Google Cloud and Mannai Infotech, demonstrating the ministry’s commitment to using the latest technology to make hiring easier and more efficient.

“Ooqool” focuses on jobs that are not covered by the nationalization program, which provides more opportunities for skilled expatriate graduates to work in Qatar. The goal is to support the country’s growing job market and create better job opportunities for people who have studied in Qatar.

The platform is easy to use and connects private companies with graduates looking for work. In this first phase, it will only be available to companies that are open to hiring graduates from local universities.

A key feature of “Ooqool” is an AI-powered chatbot that helps employers write job descriptions quickly and clearly. Companies can upload job details in PDF format or create them directly on the website.

Hamad Dalmook, Assistant Undersecretary for Migrant Labor Affairs at the MoL, said that this launch is an important step in helping university graduates find meaningful jobs. He added that the platform will help build a strong and skilled workforce in Qatar.
