Difficult to break into the UAE
 

Hi guys
New to posting these and had a quick search for related post with no avail.

Been looking to work/live in the middle east for sometime. ACCA, been working in accountancy/tax since sixform, public sector(5.5yr)/industry (4yr,fortune 500)& the big 4(2yr) combined, aged 31 and seems quite difficult to move there. I have had 4 interviews to date but no luck.

Been to speak to recruiters directly at the DIFC/Abu Dhabi & they all say different things.

Might end up giving up to focus in UK but wondering if others are in the same boat?

Any advice...
