Frequently Asked Questions
From AI implementation timelines to regulatory support and performance outcomes — we’ve gathered the most common questions from our partners and clients. Explore this section to understand how Al Farabi Advisory turns complex healthcare challenges into measurable success stories.
Do you replace recruitment agencies?
No. We provide strategic advisory—agencies handle sourcing. Sometimes we do direct executive search for critical roles. However to ensure compliance with the local laws, we involve a licensed manpower agency to lend their expertise
How do you ensure Bahrainization compliance?
We prioritize Bahraini candidates and only recommend non-Bahrainis when justified with documentation.
Can you help recruit doctors from abroad?
Yes, through our collaboration with leading medical head hunters.
What if the candidate doesn't work out?
Hiring risk exists always. We reduce it through rigorous assessment but cannot eliminate it. We also help to craft a favourable agreement for you where the manpower agency provides you a free replacement in certain situations.
How long does executive search take?
Medical Directors/Operations Managers: 2-4 months typical. Specialists: Variable depending on specialty. Visiting Consultants: 1-2 months
