Doctors on the dole

Instead of finding hospitals ready to welcome them, a group of dentistry graduates here are facing rejection, staring at educated unemployment.

Survival, according to a group of graduates from Egyptian universities, has become a big question, despite being in one of the most sought-after job segments in the country.

A committee, according to the graduates from batches 2013 to 2015, as ordered by His Royal Highness Prince Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa, was supposed to solve the issue by setting up training programmes, but proved unsuccessful due to lack of interest.

They, however, said that the exhibitions launched by the Ministry of Labour had resulted in providing them administrative jobs.
