This means recruiters can no longer rely on companies as clients, and many have begun pitching themselves to job seekers. The price tag? It varies, but it\u2019s hefty. For job hunters, costs may range from upfront flat fees of up to USD 1.5k to significant cuts from their annual paychecks upon a successful hire. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Resume writing services have also grown in popularity <\/strong>\u2014 at an estimated CAGR of 7% from 2026-2033, according to a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/resume-writing-service-market-size-value-report-growth-oqnpe\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">recent report<\/a> \u2014 and the career coaching industry has seen <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coachingfederation.org\/blog\/coaching-industry-continues-global-growth-with-5-34-billion-usd-revenue-new-research-reveals\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">15% growth since 2023<\/a>. This reverse recruitment shift is a sign of a much deeper flaw in the system.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>It looks like recruitment agencies are fighting AI fire with AI fire.<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tryrefer.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Refer<\/a>, one of the reverse recruiters cited by the WSJ, uses an AI chatbot called Lia to connect job seekers with companies. The bot makes over 20 introductions by showing job seekers to hiring managers, operating on a \u201csuccess fee\u201d model in which hired candidates pay the service provider 20% of their first month\u2019s salary. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Individual recruiters are also going rogue. <\/strong>Online freelance marketplaces \u2014 such as <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fiverr.com\/gigs\/reverse-recruiter\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Fiverr<\/a> and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.upwork.com\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">UpWork<\/a> \u2014 have also seen an uptick in reverse recruiters offering their services at a slew of price points. Names and services vary, but there remains a common denominator: job seekers are desperate enough to pay to work, and recruiters know it. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\">\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">History may not always repeat itself <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>We\u2019ve seen this before \u2014 without AI.<\/strong> During periods of economic uncertainty, reverse recruitment was a staple of the job market. WSJ notes the US economic downturns of the \u201870s and \u201880s, adding that employment agencies at the time routinely charged candidates, not employers, to secure positions \u2014 often at the same price tags being introduced today. In this day and age, however, cold-calling is out, and AI-powered messages are in.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>While reverse recruitment can help candidates secure a paycheck, it might be doing more harm than good.<\/strong> The shift introduces even more inequality in navigating the job market, prompting the question: what happens now to the people who can\u2019t afford these services? \u201cCandidates who can afford the service have a leg up on those who cannot,\u201d Executive Coach Liz Bentley told <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/what-is-reverse-recruiting-agency\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">CBS<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>What this means for regional leaders: <\/strong>While reverse recruitment agencies haven\u2019t yet arrived at home, it\u2019s not improbable that we\u2019ll start seeing the wave manifest soon.

novel<\/a><\/strong><strong>.<\/strong> The series chronicles the lives of a wealthy, older \u201cgentleman\u201d and his younger, poorer relative as they find themselves entangled in an affair that would see both their lives utterly upended. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Kemal (Selahattin Pa\u015fal\u0131) has it all \u2014 a

obsessed with her. A full-fledged love affair takes root, just weeks before Kemal\u2019s engagement party to Sibel (Oya Unustas\u0131), leaving him in a precarious situation. The series hops back and forth in timelines to decades later, where we are introduced to Kemal\u2019s \u201cmuseum of innocence,\u201d where the affair is immortalized in physical memorabilia. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The show is daring, shocking, and fresh. <\/strong>A sense of mystery prevails, keeping us on the edge of our seats, with morally gray characters. Infidelity, gender roles, and class struggles are all put under the spotlight, and the show does an incredible job of encouraging the viewer to draw their own conclusions and judgments. The soundtrack adds depth, and the entire cast \u2014 bar none \u2014 delivers noteworthy performances. Although it\u2019s available in English dubbing, we\u2019d recommend watching the show in its original Turkish, so nothing gets lost in translation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>(** Tap or click the headline above to read this story with all of the links <\/strong>to our background as well as external sources.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>WHERE TO WATCH-<\/strong> You can stream the show on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/eg-en\/title\/81741975\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Netflix<\/a>.

A move over two years in the making, the core objective is to localize raw material production and reduce reliance on imports, which have heavily drained the state\u2019s FX reserves, Metallurgical Industries Chamber Director Mohamed Hanafi tells us.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The government will auction the licenses across three production tiers<\/strong>, a move expected to attract considerable investment, our source tells us. Companies are already preparing their financial reserves \u2014 Ashry Steel Group Chairman Ayman El Ashry tells EnterpriseAM he has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2025\/07\/07\/ashry-steel-to-establish-a-usd-200-mn-billet-plant-in-sixth-of-october\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">applied for a license<\/a> to produce 1 mn tons annually, with investments totaling EGP 1.2 bn.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>These developments come at a particularly sensitive time as the government seeks to stabilize the prices of end-use goods that rely on steel<\/strong>, such as electrical appliances and automobiles, by ensuring a steady supply of local inputs, Hanafi tells us. Last September, the government imposed a temporary <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2025\/09\/14\/govt-introduces-safeguard-tariffs-on-imported-steel-products\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">200-day protection measure<\/a> on steel and billet imports to protect the local industry following a four-year suspension of lower duties. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>However, current domestic production has proven insufficient to meet demand<\/strong>, while imports have become prohibitively expensive on account of duties reaching 16.2% of the cost, ins., and freight value \u2014 no less than EGP 4.6k per ton. This has essentially left rolling mills between a rock and a hard place, industry sources tell us. This coincides with the rollout of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/inside_industry\/govt-to-boost-production-of-cold-rolled-galvanized-and-color-coated-sheets-via-new-incentive-package\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">incentive packages for local manufacturers<\/a> aimed at accelerating the localization of several sectors, with the engineering and automotive industries at the forefront.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The end goal?<\/strong> To transition from importing billets and rolled sheets to full-scale local manufacturing. Applications are currently being vetted ahead of technical and financial bid submissions in the coming days.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Integrated mills \u2014 which handle the process from start to finish \u2014 argue that billet imports flooded the market with cheap products<\/strong>, causing losses and eroding margins. Billet imports jumped 10x over five years to reach 1.7 mn tons, costing the state USD 1 bn annually in foreign currency, according to a report from the General Organization for Export and Import Control seen by EnterpriseAM. For these mills, imports are unjustifiable given that local production capacity \u2014 some 13.7 mn tons \u2014 exceeds local consumption of 7 mn tons. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>On the flip side, rolling mills \u2014 which purchase and shape billets \u2014 have been hard-hit by protection measures and local raw materials shortages<\/strong>, Chamber of Metallurgical Industries Vice Chairman and El Marakby Steel Chairman Hassan El Marakby tells us. Some factories were led to halt operations entirely due to the high cost of imports, he added. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>To melt or to roll, that is the question. <\/strong>Figures reveal a significant gap in the risk-reward profiles of the two production models:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Integrated mills:<\/strong> Face high operational costs as they manage the entire lifecycle from melting to finishing;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rolling mills:<\/strong> Rely on a model of purchasing billets and shaping them, allowing for quick gains of EGP 4k-5k per ton when importing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>However, this flexibility comes at a cost.<\/strong> While integrated and semi-integrated mills have a capacity of 13.7 mn tons, rolling mills remain hostage to global market fluctuations and anti-dumping duties. These 16.2% duties transformed the advantage of importing into a burden threatening to halt production, especially since the added value in rolling does not exceed 10-12%.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The USD <\/strong><strong>mn question<\/strong><strong>: <\/strong>Did the protection duties protect the market? It seems not\u2026 so far. Federation of Egyptian Industries\u2019 Engineering Industries head Mohamed El Mohandes believes the duties failed to achieve their goals, telling us that the measures widened the price gap and harmed industrial competitiveness, calling for a 50% reduction or total cancellation of the duties. <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Contrary to expectations, the duties did not cause steel prices to skyrocket \u2014 instead, prices fell due to stagnation.<\/strong> Prices dropped to EGP 32k-34k per ton from EGP 36k-38k, driven by weak demand and an improved exchange rate, before seeing a slight uptick. This indicates that supply-demand dynamics and market stagnation were more influential than the duties, El Marakby explains.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Continued duties raise input costs, which may eventually manifest as price hikes for consumers<\/strong>, head of the Electrical Appliances Division Hassan Mabrouk warns. However, manufacturers might absorb part of the steel price increase by narrowing net margins. Minor price increases (5-10%) are expected but unlikely to significantly impact sales volumes, especially following recent government price-reduction initiatives, CI Capital Research noted in a recent memo seen by EnterpriseAM.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>On the export front, the US market\u2019s outlook is bleak.<\/strong> The United States is <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2026\/01\/25\/egyptian-steel-faces-a-total-export-freeze-to-the-us-under-hiked-tariffs\/\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">virtually closed to Egyptian exports<\/a> due to a combined tariff rate that can reach up to 80%, making exporting economically unviable, according to El Marakby. This global closure reinforces the need to stabilize the local market as the primary outlet for production.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Where does Egypt stand regionally?<\/strong> Data from the Arab Iron and Steel Union shows that while Egypt maintained its lead in North African production with some 10.7 mn tons in 2025, it saw a slight production decline of 0.8%. Conversely, the region is seeing notable growth: production in Saudi Arabia jumped by 12.3% and in Algeria by 17.9%. This disparity puts additional pressure on the Egyptian industry to accelerate billet localization to regain growth momentum. <\/p>\n\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!--
