Saudi hiring is a regulated game, Nitaqat color bands gate your contracts, Tawteen targets are reported quarterly, and Qiwa logs every employment decision. Zoho Recruit, integrated with Qiwa and Mudad, gives KSA SMBs an ATS that handles Saudization compliance natively, in Arabic. Here's how to deploy it.
Configure Saudization quotas and Tawteen targets
Set Saudization quotas by department per Ministry of HR rules. Zoho Recruit auto-flags whether a job listing must prioritise Saudi nationals to maintain Nitaqat compliance. Tawteen workflows track women, persons of determination and Saudi youth as separate streams.
Sync with Qiwa, Mudad and source from Bayt/LinkedIn
Job posts flow to Bayt.com (Saudi #1), LinkedIn KSA, Indeed and your career site simultaneously. Approved Saudi hires push to Qiwa for work-permit issuance and Mudad for payroll setup. Candidates get bilingual Arabic/English communications by default.
Run Arabic-first interviews and onboarding
Schedule interviews with Arabic-language confirmations and Hijri-date support. Use Zoho Recruit Video Interviews for shortlists; structured interview scorecards in Arabic produce defensible hiring decisions. Approved offers flow to Zoho People for onboarding.
