Recruitment for Riyadh , Jeddah and Dammam
As a Saudi recruitment agency, we recruit skilled and semi-skilled Pakistani workers across the sectors where Saudi company jobs are in steady demand:
Whether a manpower company in Riyadh needs a full batch of construction workers or a single specialist, the process runs through us on the Pakistan side and through the employer in Saudi Arabia.
How our Saudi work visa process works
The visa process for a Pakistani worker follows a set sequence, and our recruitment agency manages every step on the Pakistani side:
Employer demand.
The Saudi employer issues a demand for specific roles, and the visa is issued against that approved demand.
Document attestation.
Certificates are attested where the role requires it, through our document attestation for Saudi Arabia service.
Biometrics and visa.
The candidate attends a Tasheer biometrics appointment, and the Saudi embassy stamps the visa.
Departure and Iqama.
The worker travels, and the employer arranges the Iqama (residence permit) after arrival in Saudi Arabia.
Sourcing and screening.
We source candidates, verify documents, and trade-test and interview them before the employer selects.
Medical.
The candidate completes the GAMCA / Wafid medical, the mandatory Gulf health screening.
Protector registration.
We complete Protector of Emigrants registration, countersigning the Foreign Service Agreement and issuing the Overseas Employment Certificate (OEC).

This video shows a recruitment for Al Bawani, a Saudi contracting company. Their engineers, from both Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, interviewed and trade-tested masons, tile setters, and waterproofing technicians on site. Mr. Shayish Alanazi, Al Bawani’s representative, said around 85% of the candidates were strong in their trade, and that Iqbal Manpower has supplied workers to the company in earlier hiring cycles. Candidates pay nothing for the interview or the trade test. Once the employer approves them, selected workers complete the GAMCA/Wafid medical, then move on to Tasheer visa stamping and travel to Saudi Arabia.
Recent Saudi recruitment Interviews: Essam Kabbani (IKK)
In July 2026, we held interviews in several cities for Isam Khairi Kabbani (IKK) , a diversified Saudi group, to recruit for 40 trades including HVAC engineers, welders, civil foremen, crane operators, bus drivers, plumbers, electricians, gardeners, baristas, and work permit receivers. A large number of candidates were interviewed during the drive. It is a recent, verifiable example of how Saudi employers use our recruitment services to hire Pakistani workers at scale.
