Auto-apply to jobs in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar

Where we apply in the Gulf

Applysent applies on the employer's own application form, on the hiring system (ATS) the employer uses. It does not apply through job boards. So the question for the Gulf is which hiring systems Gulf employers use, and which of those we support.

The table counts active postings in our catalog on each system we apply on, by country, on 15 November 2026. It leaves out postings marked for nationals only (see below). The counts change daily as employers open and close roles.

Oracle Recruiting Cloud carries the most UAE postings we can apply to, followed by Workday and SmartRecruiters; in Saudi Arabia Workable leads. On Oracle we apply on Candidate Experience job pages hosted on Oracle Cloud only.

To see the jobs themselves, browse UAE, Saudi and Qatar jobs on our job board. For country-specific advice on CVs, visa status, notice periods and AED salaries, read auto-apply to jobs in the UAE.

Gulf hiring systems we don't apply on

Plenty of Gulf employers use systems we don't support yet. We show their jobs on the job board so you can find them, but we can't submit to them, and they never take up your allowance. On 15 November 2026 the biggest were:

If most of the employers you want use one of these systems, an auto-apply tool that covers those systems, or applying by hand, will reach more of them than we can today. Our supported hiring systems page lists what we cover, and the which-ATS checker tells you which system a job link uses.

What we don't do

• Bayt, GulfTalent and Naukrigulf. We don't apply through them. Their jobs use each site's own account and on-site apply flow rather than the employer's hiring system, and Bayt's and GulfTalent's terms restrict automated access.¹² If the employer also lists the role on its own hiring system and we support that system, we can apply there.
• LinkedIn Easy Apply and Indeed. We don't use them, so your LinkedIn and Indeed accounts are never involved.
• Government portals. We don't apply through national job portals or government recruitment platforms.
• Arabic-language forms. We fill in forms from your profile. Check any Arabic-language form in Review mode before approving it.

Visa, sponsorship and nationality questions

Gulf application forms ask about nationality, visa status and sponsorship more than most. This is how our code handles them.

• Answers come from your profile, never from a guess. You record your nationalities, the countries you can work in and whether you need sponsorship once. Each form question is answered for the country of that posting, so the same profile answers "Do you need visa sponsorship?" differently for a UAE role and a Saudi role when your rights differ.
• Unknown means we ask. If a legal or visa question can't be answered from what you saved, that application pauses and asks you once. Your answer is reused on later forms that ask the same thing.
• Answers on one form must agree. Before sending, we check every right-to-work, sponsorship and citizenship answer on the form against each other and against your profile. If two disagree, the application is held, not sent.
• Sponsorship filters the jobs. If you need sponsorship for a country, postings there that say they don't sponsor are left out of your matches, and postings that say they do are ranked first.
• Nationals-only roles are respected. Postings reserved for nationals, such as Emiratisation, Saudization or Qatarization roles, or ones that say "UAE nationals only", are detected. They are matched to you only if you hold that nationality, and left out if your nationality isn't on file.

For how to answer these questions well yourself, see work authorisation and sponsorship questions and how to find jobs that sponsor visas.

Setting it up for a Gulf search

1. In onboarding, choose the countries you want (United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar) and the cities, such as Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, Jeddah or Doha.
2. Record your nationalities, where you can already work, and whether you'll need the employer to issue your residence visa.
3. Leave the salary floor empty or set it in the local currency. Many Gulf postings don't show pay, and a floor skips roles without one.
4. Start in Review mode to check the first applications, including any Arabic-language forms, then switch to Autopilot if you're happy.

Pricing is the same everywhere: 7 days free with the full plan with a card, then $19.99 a month or $49.99 every 3 months. See pricing.

Frequently asked questions

Does Applysent apply to jobs in Dubai and Abu Dhabi?

Yes, when the employer hires through a system we support. On 15 November 2026 there were 11,967 active UAE postings on those systems in our catalog, most of them on Oracle Recruiting Cloud, Workday, SmartRecruiters and Workable.

Does Applysent apply to jobs in Saudi Arabia and Qatar?

Yes, on the same systems. On 15 November 2026 our catalog held 6,911 active Saudi postings and 1,666 Qatar postings on systems we apply on. SAP SuccessFactors and Oracle Taleo, which we don't support yet, carry another 2,277 Saudi and 984 Qatar postings.

Can Applysent apply on Bayt, GulfTalent or Naukrigulf?

No. Those boards use their own accounts and on-site apply flows, and we only apply on employers' own hiring systems. If the employer also posts the role on a system we support, we can apply there.

How are visa and sponsorship questions answered?

From your profile, for the country of each posting. If your profile doesn't answer a legal question, the application pauses and asks you, and if two answers on one form would contradict each other, it is held rather than sent.

Will it apply to Emiratisation or Saudization roles?

Only if you hold that nationality. Postings reserved for nationals are detected and left out of your matches otherwise.
