"We hired 6 Site Engineers for our Dubai facility management contract. Mahad verified degrees with the issuing university and ran third-party background checks before shortlisting — the kind of due diligence we couldn't do in-house at that speed. MOHRE papers took 14 days. 4 successful placement rounds through Mahad."
