Hospitality hiring across the GCC: faster, safer and cheaper than a recruitment agency.
Candidates see verified jobs with salary, visa and housing upfront. Employers get ranked, pre-screened shortlists on a flat monthly plan, instead of paying 15–20% of annual salary for every hire.

Verified on both sides
Employers are checked before they post. Candidates complete a role-specific check before they're shown as Verified.
Every detail upfront
Salary, visa, housing, transport and contract terms are on the job card. No surprises after the interview.
Hire without commissions
Employers pay one flat plan, not a percentage of every salary. Candidates never pay to get hired.
Hospitality hiring shouldn't take hundreds of CVs, or a commission on every hire.
Job groups are full of noise. Agencies charge a share of the salary. And candidates still can't tell which offers are real until they've already applied.
If you're looking for work
You apply everywhere and still don't know what you're applying for.
- The post doesn't say the salary.
- You find out about visa and housing only after the interview, if at all.
- You can't tell if the employer is real, or if anyone will ever reply.
On HorecaPass you see the full offer before you apply, and every application gets a status.
If you're hiring
You don't need more CVs. You need the right people, without paying an agency for every hire.
- Hundreds of applications, three worth calling.
- Good candidates disappear after the first call.
- Every agency hire costs 15–20% of a year's salary.
On HorecaPass you start with a ranked shortlist and pay one flat monthly plan.
