So I have messaged them both about salary expectations, One guy expects $5000 a month plus accom plus his bonus..............He lives in Jordan and isn't working. They must get ******* good dole money there.

I am now down to 1/68. Quite tempted to find an expat brat.

Just been looking through CVs for recruiters to work for us.

Instantly deleted the first because they claimed to be a "Talent Broker".

God help me

Most of you must be able to skim down a CV in 3-4 seconds and say yes - read more or no, delete.
Sorry to drag up an old thread, but I just read this

I wouldn't normally send my photo with a CV but my Arab friends in the Gulf said that Arab recruiters like to see one, so I've been sending one (albeit reluctantly) with my apps lol. I dislike the thought of my pic being judged though!

I guess though that when sending CVs to recruitment consultants in the Gulf, who most likely employ Western staff, I'd be best to miss off the pic!

Better than many applications I see. Although I'd drop him a mark or two for using "sincerely" and "sir".
