Where the money goes

Read the CV first. Pay only for the contacts you want.

Searching, filtering and reading a full profile cost nothing. A contact unlock is spent only when you've decided this is the person you want to speak to.

CVs from across Kuwait

Candidate profiles from across Kuwait, in every major city and industry, and it grows every day.

Every province, every sector

Kept current by the candidates

People update their own profiles as they change jobs and pick up skills, so what you read is what they last told us — not a CV that's been sitting in a folder.

Sort and filter by how recent a profile is

One readable format

Every profile is laid out the same way, so comparing five candidates takes a glance instead of opening five differently-formatted PDF files.

Simple process

How to search CVs, from first search to first call

You can do the first three steps today without spending anything — which is the point.

  1. Create your account

    Under a minute, no card. You can start searching immediately.

  2. Search and filter

    Stack filters until the shortlist is short. Read full profiles as you go — none of this costs anything.

  3. Shortlist the ones worth calling

    Save candidates so your team can see them, and compare side by side in one format.

  4. Unlock and reach out

    Spend one unlock per candidate to get their phone and email, then message them straight from Mustakbil.

No card needed to browse

After the search

The good ones you don't hire today

Most searches surface more strong people than one role can take. Pools are where they stop slipping away.

Save them into talent pools

One click files a strong profile into a pool — silver medallists, senior engineers, people to call when the budget opens. Unlimited, and private to your team.

Internal pools stay internal

Tell a pool about a job

The moment a matching role opens, invite the whole pool in one send — each person individually, with the already-invited skipped and each one counted against your invitations.

Consented outreach, one-tap opt-out

Or let them come to you

Put an interest form on your company page — "Hear about future roles" — and candidates add themselves to the pool you choose, using their Mustakbil profile. Your bench grows while you sleep.

Questions about searching CVs

Want to see it first? Ask for a walkthrough.

How big is the database?

Candidate profiles from across Kuwait, in every major city and industry — and it grows every day as new candidates join and existing ones update their details.

What exactly does a contact unlock pay for?

One candidate's contact details. Searching, filtering and reading the full profile come with every account — the unlock is what reveals how to reach that specific person. Unlock someone once and they stay unlocked for your account, so revisiting the profile never costs a second unlock.

Can I really read profiles without paying?

Yes. Work history, education, skills, salary expectation and notice period are all visible before you spend anything, so you can judge whether a candidate is worth contacting first. Only the phone number and email sit behind an unlock.

Are the resumes up to date?

Candidates maintain their own profiles as they change jobs and add skills, and you can filter and sort by how recently a profile was updated — so you can focus on people who've been active lately.

What can I filter on?

14 filters in total, stackable in any combination, including keywords, candidate name, job title, skills, current employer, industry, degree level, degree, institution, location, experience and salary expectation.

Can I message candidates on Mustakbil?

Yes — once a candidate is unlocked you can message them directly on the platform as well as calling or emailing, and save them to a shortlist your team can see.

Do I need contact unlocks if I'm also posting jobs?

Not necessarily. Invitations to matching candidates — included with Boost and Pro — let you invite matching candidates from the database to apply to your job without unlocking anyone, because they come to you. Unlocks are for when you'd rather approach someone directly.

Can I search CVs for free in Kuwait?

Yes. Create a free employer account to search Mustakbil's resume database, filter by job title, skills, city, experience and more (14 filters in all), and read full CVs at no cost. You pay only to unlock a candidate's phone number and email — on a monthly search plan, from USD 125 for 1,000 contacts a month.

How do I find resumes for a job I am hiring for?

Search by the job title and city first, then add skills and years of experience until the list is short enough to read. Save the strongest to a shortlist, unlock the ones you want to call, and, if you have the job posted with a Boost, invite matching people to apply to it without unlocking anyone. Prefer to type it in a sentence? The AI Hiring Agent runs the search for you.

Is there a free trial?

You don't need one: every account can search and read full profiles, so you see exactly who is there before you pay. When you've found people worth calling, a search plan unlocks their phone numbers and emails — Express Search is USD 125 for 1,000 contacts a month.
