Most of the recruitment agencies require registrationwith them for specific vacancies.
Some of them even may levy a small fee (usually25 UAE Dirhams :3.67 Dirhams=1 US Dollar) for registration although the local Government does not permit collection of such service charges from prospective employees.
2.
Most of the agencies do not like CVs faxed/ e-mailed to them without any specific requirement.
Therefore it is advisable to check with individual agencies before sending any CV.

In fact, more and more agencies (even Employers) prefer to receive only online registration or application.

However, e-registration is increasingly become popular with the agencies.

'Networking' is a good way to locate jobs which are not advertised.
Most of the companies, without any specific opening available, will normally ask the candidate tofax or mail their CVs.
