Jobs in dubai for IT professionals?

• Question: jobs in dubai for IT professionals? I'm going to dubai by mid march to look for a job. i'm an IT professional and a filipino, is it easy for me to look for a good paying job there? I specialized in Network Administration, Embedded Systems, and Mechatronics. i have a Bs in computer engr'ng and a vocational in mechanical design. Is there anyone who can help me?

• Answer:

  Lots of opportunities here (and yes, Filipino's have a good image) but all depends very much on your experience and your expectation of salaries offered. You are talking about a good paying job. Dubai is not the place where Santa Claus is visiting the average employee. (despite the different religion here, I do suspect though Santa is visiting some Emiratis now and then) I cannot serve you a job on a platter, you have to go for it yourselves. Make a strong CV and apply before you travel. A lot of people are recruited from outside, so the internet plays a big role in finding candidates. Use it to find the jobs that fit you and email them your resume. It is important to mention that you have already planned to travel to Dubai. That will give your application a positive boost. On this site you find links to open vacancies at recruitment agencies & jobsites. And also a few IT companies, you can apply directly at their career pages: http://www.startpagedubai.com/jobs.htm And last but not least. Try to have a few appointments lined up before you leave to Dubai.
