Re: Job in Abu Dhabi Investment Authority
I am currently applying for ADIA and will have my 3rd interview with the deputy director of HR. any tips? my recruiter told me its only me and someone else now so I don't know whom will make it!
position is p2 so can you provide advice on the expected package details? and whether the housing is paid or is it "use it or loose it"?

I can't help on the package. It varies hugely depending on your role, your passport, current salary...
Housing package at ADIA you always have the choice to take it as cash. The package is decent so you can either get a large top end place, or else get a cheaper or smaller place and take the difference in cash. That's what many people do.

No tips I can add to what's been said before further up this thread.

Re: Job in Abu Dhabi Investment Authority
Hi all - I have read a lot about lack progression once you're in? So is my understanding that if you go in as an I2 or P2 position, that is your position for your time there? Is this correct?

Career progression is dependent on understanding the difference between your and you're.

Don't convert whatever they offer you on the current exchange rate of 4.8. Your value in local currency didn't change becuase of brexit. Divide numbers by 6 or 7 in my opinion.
Scamp will come and say that I'm wrong but in his heart he knows I'm right.

Deffo. And at a pay level that will allow you to accommodate very few payrises.

But your point was it's pointless to convert at all. So really, you've just finally agreed with me.
I think I'm a manager now. In fact, with current salary negotiations, I'm either going to be paid what I'm worth and become 'Senior Manager' or 'Self Employed'.

I'm told that titles matter. Do you manage more than one person (including yourself?)

I don't care for titles, or haven't in the past, but that's part of being in a sales type role, who cares.
Now it does matter because it means pay rise.

Re: Job in Abu Dhabi Investment Authority
in my case it was a 2 hours interviews (30 minutes each) to include 4 interviews but this for a support role. there was no case study.
