Default Looking for work in Dubai

Hi,

I am looking for a job in Dubai as I am moving out in August this year. How am I best going about finding a job in Dubai? I have a LLB law degree from Manchester University and have a worked in legal cost management for the last two years so I am keen to explore all job opportunities whether it be along the same lines or in a different direction.

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

er... have you read any of the other threads regarding risk? Have you got people there to stay with or are you going to be eating into your savings (considerably) whilst you wait to find a job?

What is your current plan? If you tell us that, we may be able to give more balanced advice.

As i pointed out earlier today.
Some people just think this is a nice place and it sounds nice.
They havent got a clue wtf is happening out here.
They do next to zero reaserach / home work and still think itll be ok.

Pleas e do some home work first.
