Relocate To Dubai,
Hi,
For the time being I work as a Key Account Manager for a high profile company in Sweden. I have extensive experience from the retail business as well as managerial roles and sales. I am looking to relocate to Dubai as my girlfriend is moving there. I have been searching the net for different job sites but they all seem a bit shady and never answer any questions. I would be deeply appreciative for any help regarding solid job agencies and the best way to proceed for relocating to Dubai successfully. I have also been told that the smartest way to get a job in Dubai is to come there once self is that correct? And if so, what time frame is reasonable? Any help on this matter would be appreciated and if my relocation to Dubai I successful then the alcohol is on me!...:thumbup: Kind Regards Nima |

after speaking with a lot of people... and a few of the agencies based in dubai... a lot of the time they don't even bother getting back to you unless you're based in dubai. unless you can find one that's based in your own country.

Not IKEA though..=) Are setting aside two months for job seeking over there? Sounds way to long if you ask me? Agree on the job agencies though. |

Better to get the right job, rather than take the first job, no?

MM, xx really though i was kinda hoping you'd say telecomms or IT... a friend of mine works for a swedish company out there called brightpoint... try and get in contact with them in sweden and see if they have any vacancies for dubai... they might even be able to set up an interview for you before you go... if i speak to her at any point i'll see if she can have a look internally, but she's flying around the world at the moment so i doubt i'll speak to her in the next month or so |

So managerial roles and retail possessions are just as interesting as I have had a number of leading roles in these areas as well. Regards Nima |

My suggestion is to send her on alone, a few weeks before you, to see if she can do some research into what Dubai's like, etc. There are a number of agencies who can help her settle in as Dubai can be a very unsettling experience for women there alone. I myself can recommend an agency...... in fact by coincidence I have done some work for them in that particular field in the past. Would you like to ask your girlfriend to get in touch with me? Just let me know your thoughts.......... |
