I am about to move to Dubai and thinking about travelling a little beforehand...however, I am little worried because obviously I will need some savings to start off while looking for a job in Dubai. However, I also think that once I start working in Dubai, there will be little time to travel.
Therefore I have the following questions:
1) On average, at least how much savings should one have when going
to Dubai looking for a job? (I know it is impossible to give an
exact answer, but just like to have some opinions from people who
have done the same thing and their experiences as to savings
needed to get by until they found a job
2) Is it worth it to start looking for a job in Dubai before I get
there or is it best to start looking when I get to Dubai?
3) Assuming I do start looking beforehand, does the company usually
pay for the flight to Dubai when I am invited for an interview?
4) Naturally, I would like to negotiate the best salary
possible...is it better to accomplish this from abroad or from
within Dubai?
5) I am in sales...business development...what are some of the
highest paying companies and industries in Dubai within this
field with the biggest total compensation packages?
6) What are some of the best free dating sites in Dubai and best
place to meet girls?
7) Any other advice and suggestions about Dubai would be greatly
appreciated.
A quick, detailed reply would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much.

What Scarlet said. If you want a second opinion...
1. Allow $4k-$6k per month living expenses including accommodation while without job.
Add $30k for 1 year accommodation rental if you have to pay yourself (rental required 1 year in advance) for 1 bdrm, $15k for cheap studio.
Add $15k to buy medium car. Figures assume you want western standard of living. Labour camps are cheaper and you don't need car.
2. Start before but easier in Dubai.
3. Depends on job. Lower level no. Headhunted yes.
4. Best time to negotiate salary is after job offer but before you accept it. Location less relevant.
5. Don't know.
6. Dating sites get blocked. Marriage sites don't. Meet partners through work colleagues, friends, clubs (sports and hobbies) etc, same as anywhere.
7. Try this - :).
