Nothing. They went silent

For what it is worth, I have been in the process for well north of a year for a head of asset class position and they have "gone silent" on me multiple times. The longest was over 9 months. I dropped out on them once and they keep coming back. It has reached the point where the recruiter and I just laugh each time they reach out to see if I am still interested. Trying to force the process with SWFs in the ME is like trying to push a string - they will move at their pace.

Hello,
Please allow me to say that experiences shared in this blog are very helpful for some who had no Idea about ADIA hiring process. So, Thank You to all of you who took time to share their experiences. I am from US and recently I have been interviewed for a P2 (Senior analyst). From this blog and my recent experience I figured that ADIA interview process is going to take months. I am in middle of interview with few good companies locally and want to evaluate my options.

Most of folks in this blog are from UK(Obviously coz I am on BritishExpats) and CA and their comparisons are mostly with the cost of living and Taxes in city like London or Toronto.

1. I wanted to know if there are any American especially from East Coast. If so how is your experience so far when it comes to compensation.
2. From this blog I see that home allowance for P2 is 180K/year. However, when I look at decent Villa there is nothing in that range.
3. Can anyone recommend good neighborhood and School with American Curriculum. I just need to google the area, commute and cost and then compare it with my current US salary.
4. Another silly question, as per monthly pay is concern can a IT person with P2 role can get $30K/ month?
5. “Expat benefit allowance - 4.5k/9k. Single/married rate paid monthly.” Is this only for people with P3 title or P2 are also entitled for it ?

Thanks,

AK

I am in the east coast and going through interview process. What stage are you in? Are you done with pyschometric tests?

I still do not have any compensation info but recruiter has asked me to provide last three years of compensation history.

Numbers posted here are from 2012-2014 time frame and I would expect it to go little up ( inflation) but could be wrong.

Google for school.

30k AED is possible assuming you are making less than that now in US. They will offer little bump than what you are making now else there is no point to move imo.

Allowance is part of package and you will get it. Not sure if it would be 9k/ month.

Thanks Pupdawg82. I just had one VC yet. No, I am not invited for psychometric test yet. My recruiter didn't give me any numbers either. I just made them by reading this blog and I agree numbers here are from 2012-2014 and considering inflation less then 30k is not going to be enough. I don't think they can match my US income neither I am expecting that from them. I work as a consultant and freelancer so a lot of side income for me.☺
I Googled for school and found bunch of them however, still wanted to hear from someone who has kids in school.
BTW what is middle office role?are you also going for P2 level? Seems like your in between interviews but stI'll got pretty good handle on process. Have you been to AD before?
