Jumeirah Group has launched a mobile careers site, making it easier for candidates to apply for jobs with the hotel and hospitality company on mobile devices.

The decision to roll out the new website was prompted by the increasing number of people visiting the Jumeirah Group careers website from mobile devices. The fully mobile-compatible website has been developed with Cazar.

Users of devices such as the Apple iPhone and iPad, Android phones and tablets, as well as Windows Mobile and Blackberry devices, can access the site.

It enables candidates to search the interactive vacancy map, complete the application process, check the status and manage an application, manage interview time slots and modify personal details.

The website is available in English and the application process is offered in both English and Arabic. Upcoming features will include the ability to upload a CV via Dropbox, Google drive and other cloud storage providers.
