Why is it so difficult to get a job in dubai
Hi everyone
I am looking to move out to Dubai with my family, wife and kids, but am find it difficult to get a job there.
I have been working in FMCG sales for the last 2 years and and 4 years of customer service experience, tell me am I being relaistic in wanting to go there or are the job opps only for the more specialist areas like construction i.e surveyors etc.
Does anyone know of which companies are actively looking for UK employees with the same kindof experience I have, as wells as can someone please consult me on which UK or USA companies are based there, so that I can contact them direct.
Thanks
Kind regards..

I think your problem is that those type of jobs are generally done by Asian/Eurasian nationals for a fraction of the salary you would require.
