Founder of Tabbio and one of the most-followed HR voices in the UAE. I run HR by day and write about how hiring actually works in the UAE and the Gulf. Based in Abu Dhabi.

The PDF CV is dead. Ten versions, all slightly wrong, none of them read. Job seekers get filed. Recruiters drown. Nobody wins.

One verified CV per person. At their own link. Read by everyone. Every recruiter, every ATS, every AI, every job board reads the same one. Change it once, and the whole world gets it.

Not a CV builder. A builder makes a file. Tabbio builds your one CV, at your own link, connected everywhere. One source of truth you come back to whenever anything changes, and everything that reads it gets the new version.

The foundation is built. Government-grade identity verification, live in the UAE. The one CV everything reads from.

What comes next. Career pages that speak one language. One job board. One place hiring in the Gulf actually happens.

We're not replacing anyone. We're the bridge they all run on.

• HR by trade, 12 years on the hiring side.. Still in the job. Everything I build is tested against real hiring the same week.
• Career coach.. I've read more CVs than most people ever will, and I tell people exactly why theirs got skipped.
• HR x tech.. An HR guy who fell into product and SEO. The team ships. I make sure what we ship is what hiring actually needs.
• I break things on purpose to see what holds.. My team has a love-hate relationship with that. It's also why Tabbio never stops moving.
• A licensed voice, not just a loud one.. Verified content creator, New Media Academy alumnus, licensed under the UAE advertiser permit. When I say something works in Gulf hiring, it's because it worked for someone this week.

How is Tabbio different from LinkedIn or other job sites? No. LinkedIn and job sites are places you go to. Tabbio is the one CV you own, that everything else reads from. Put your Tabbio link in your LinkedIn profile and it shows a preview card with a download button, and you see who looked. How the preview works · Share and export

In the app: Share, then LinkedIn, then add the link to your Featured section. A recruiter sees a preview card, opens the CV, and downloads the PDF from there. You see who looked.

How is Tabbio different from using ChatGPT or Claude? Yes. Tabbio works with them. They hand you text to copy out. Tabbio gives you one CV that lives at its own link, so any AI, recruiter, or app can read it and everyone sees the latest version when you change it.

Is Tabbio's CV ATS-friendly? Yes.

We don't train our AI on your data and we don't sell it. Privacy policy

How do I share my full CV with my contact details? By default your CV has no contact details on it, for your privacy. People reach you through the built-in message button. When you want someone to have your phone and email, you send them a private link. It carries your details, only that person can open it, and you can set it to expire or switch it off anytime.
