UK couple looking to move to Dubai
Hi folks,
We are a coouple from the UK looking to move to Dubai, only thing that is worrying is the fact of not having work when we go. I know a lot of companies wont touch you if you are not already in the country. Im from an agricultural background in agrichemical sales etc and looking to move into the oil industry , either in sales or actual hands on work. I know they employ a lot of cheap labour there so may be a stumbling block. My wife has vast experience in admin and secreterial work . Can anyone out there help us?!! Look forward to hearing from you guys Thanks Kevin |

Without having a permanent job between the pair of you, how do you expect to be allowed to live here? Why not try Spain or Portugal?

Thanks for the reply, we are actually just back form there as we were at my cousins wedding so we never had time to get interviews, but yes we would be able to come out asap for interviews. Do you work in the Oil and gas? Thanks Kevin |

Re: UK couple looking to move to Dubai
Oil & Gas related is one of the biggest employers out here. If you're a good sales person you shouldn't have much difficulty in getting a job.
