Default need your help

Hi,
I did the Legal Practice Course at the College of Law in London two years ago. Although I have obtained good grades throughout (at school, University, and at the College of Law) however I have not yet found a job in the uk. I am fluent in English, Spanish, Arabic and intermediate French and have some legal work experience in Spain. What possibilities would I have to work in the legal sector in Dubai, and if that would not be possible what alternative graduate jobs could I apply for? Also I would like to know what would be the best way to apply, online or by going personally to recruitment agencies in Dubai?

I would really appreciate any advice,

Thank You

I doubt that you will get something in the legal field out here without qualification or decent experience as a paralegal in the city.

did the LPC myself at NLS 2005-2006.

Hi

I have a friend who works for one of the top legal firms in Dubai. I have no idea but he may be able to help. I am also in the process of recieving an offer and know how difficult it can be to get your 'foot in the door' - If I can be of any help I will try. If your interested please feel free to contact me.
