OK so I have sorted out the house and figured conventient routes to get around. Now I need to find a job. How do people look for jobs in the UAE anyway?? Is it just the Appointments section of Gulf Times? I have seen a multitude of recruitment companies' ads - are these any good? Anybody had some luck with the online ones?
It's too hot to put too much effort into this right now...
Check out recruitment agencies in Dubai, there's bayt.com, monstergulf.com. Also, check the appointment section of Gulf News, or just go to their website, gulfnews.com, sorry, can't think of anything else right now ...
Whatever you do, you should NEVER pay money to any of these recruitment firms - it's illegal for them to charge jobseekers. They can only legally charge companies to look for staff for them.
I second NZM...don't pay any company to help you find work. I think the best jobs in Dubai are the ones you get by knowing someone...what field do you work in again, QC?
I would love to work with horses, but getting a job that has to do with horses AND pays me what I want to be paid is impossible, because I am not qualified/experienced enough to run a horse farm, lol.
So I am looking for a job in the area of my expertise - HR in oil and gas :)
For a girl who sat next to me at one of the horse shows you seem to be very forgetful :P We met in Doha, remember?? I guess since you know me through my (deleted) VT page, you didn't realize that I am the same person!
haha oh my, I feel so stupid now!!!! I had absolutly no idea it was you :p yeah yeah I know I am slow hehe... it's a small world after all. Hope you are enjoying Dubai :) Have been following on QBB for a while, and was looking around, and ended up at your blog... :)
It's ok :) Now that I think of it - you couldn't have possibly known. Unless of course you checked my Flickr pics and seen that most of them are of horses! :) Well now you know it's me. So you're lurking on QBB, eh? We are a bunch of weirdos having fun there. Welcome to join!
