You should have your CV and cover letter prepared in advance.

Try to apply to jobs while you are still in your home country. Indicate in your cover letter that you will be in Dubai in August and will call the company then. You can find job openings in Gulf News careers section (gulfnews.com).

Plan your Dubai trip. Where will you stay? With friends? in a hotel - (they are costly)? Sharing accommodation/bed space?

If you stay in Dubai, you'll find easy transportation but your expenses will be higher. Alternately, you can stay in Sharjah and use the bus to come from Sharjah to Dubai and then use Dubai's bus and train (Metro) service to get around.

once you are here, continue applying to jobs and go to any and every walk-in interview you can. But beware of fraudsters and scammers. Don't work for anyone while you are on visit or tourist visa, no matter how promising the job offer looks. it's not allowed to work on visit/tourist visa and there have been cases of cheating where the employer takes work from the visitor, wastes their time, and then doesn't give them the job (and work visa) or salary! Also, beware of anyone who ask you for money in return for finding you a job. There are those who will take advantage of your desperate and weak position, so be careful of them.

Finally, don't have high expectations. It's not easy finding a job in this country. The competition is very fierce. There are millions of jobseekers like you so don't think you'll be able to get a job fast. In fact, consider your trip a vacation and an experiment and don't be upset if you have to go back without a job. Enjoy your stay and good luck in your job search.
