Cladsmart Glass & Aluminum is holding a walk-in interview in Jabal Ali, Dubai, and it is hiring across several departments.
Most of the openings are on the factory floor and at building sites, so this suits people who already work with aluminium or glass. A few office and engineering jobs are open too.
Who can apply
Candidates of all nationalities are welcome. The one hard rule you need to know about is that UAE work experience is mandatory, so check your work history before you travel to the walk-in.
The listing has more requirements than that, and the full list is on the job post. Read it closely before you go, because some roles will ask for more than others.
Roles open and how many places
The company has more than 230 vacancies across these jobs:
- Helpers: 125 vacancies
- Aluminium Fitters: 90 vacancies
- Aluminium Fabricators: 35 vacancies
- Drivers: 2 vacancies
- CNC Operators: 3 vacancies
- QC Engineer: 1 vacancy
- Facade Site Engineer: 1 vacancy
- Accountant: 1 vacancy
The big numbers are in helper, fitter and fabricator jobs. If you’re aiming for one of the single-vacancy engineering or accounts roles, you’ll be up against more people for fewer places, so make your CV very specific to that job.

Fitter or fabricator: which one fits you
A fitter usually works on site, putting in aluminium frames, windows and facade parts. A fabricator works mostly in the factory, cutting, shaping and putting aluminium pieces together.
Be honest about which one you have done. Recruiters can tell quickly when someone has only used a tool in a training course. If you’ve done site installs, say how many floors or units you handled, and if you’ve run a cutting or shaping machine, name the machine.
What to bring on the day
Walk-in days are busy, and the people checking CVs often look at a stack of papers in a short time. Going prepared makes a good impression.
- Several printed copies of your CV, on plain white paper
- Copies of your experience letters, with dates and job titles clearly shown
- Your passport and a copy of your passport photo page
- Your UAE visa or Emirates ID, if you have one
- A pen and a small folder to keep everything in order
Arrive early. Walk-in queues in Dubai can be long, especially on the first morning.
Writing a CV for aluminium and factory jobs
Start with your UAE experience, since that is the rule that matters most here. Put your employer names, your job titles and the years you worked for each one at the top of your CV.
Then list the tasks you did each day. For a fitter, that means the type of frame, the height of the work and any safety checks. For a fabricator, name the cutting, shaping or assembly tasks and the machines you used. Keep it to one or two pages.
Can I apply if I have never worked in the UAE?
No, not for this walk-in. The listing says UAE work experience is mandatory, so you’ll need to show that you have worked here before.
What if I can’t make the walk-in day?
Check the job post on Skillveta again in the days after the event, since companies sometimes keep hiring after a walk-in. Keep your CV updated and ready, so you can send it quickly if a new chance comes up.
If you’re a helper with no aluminium background, don’t skip this. Helper jobs usually have the most places, and a clear, honest CV that shows you can work hard on a site or in a factory can still get you a call back.
