Dubai Forums

awright, excuse me for any breakage of the forum rules. But am really in a sort of a hurry ! Lets get it straight. Obviously am a student (22 yr guy)... I need some cheap accommodation in a place which comes in closer to Dubai internet city and UOWD.. I got people asking me, ambiguous questions like...

thanks for the posts.. yes university is providing accommodation but thats in Ajman.. and they say it would take an hour to get me to university (thats bullshit as i want to live close to web industry to find a decent job) Asking students for that is a good suggestion but not for me. I have to settl...

6K? AED? thats around 1700 USD.. are you kidding me?

I've been into web programming and specially e- commerce development.. will be there in dubai on study visa and along side planing to get a job based on my previous more than 2 yr experience in web development.. what exactly should i expect from dubai? a place where is plenty of space for an experie...

I wont say am an absolute professional web developer but am not that bad too.. Have been trying to get into Dubai to study at UOW but along side I want to develop relationships with good companies. I got more than 2 year practical experience of web / e commerce programming and a few month linux syst...

For me, "near" means something with in 2 km..

Thanks for the reply aussie dude.. :) you are right am doing it just to gain some contacts in industry. I am not caring much about work experience (i got some decent projects to my name) as long as I keep on handshaking with big guns of various companies. think this rules apply universally no matter...

for me Conflict games are some of the best.. maxpayne series is worth playing too

will a 30+ yrs of banking experience in one of the top 10 banks in the world work for ya?

Sorry but there is pretty much no way you could get a room around there for 1K, unless you find a nice rich family with a spare room and charm the hell out of them.

thanks a lot for the input.. what can be my best bet considering the situation??

well the point is living somewhat close to knowledge village and DIC.. I wont mind to use a bus to get there with in 15 - 20 minutes.. but Ajman (1 hour distance) is like hell.. I wonder what people do before arriving at dubai. I dont got any such family or friends there otherwise would've asked the...

thanks for the input mate.. your judgment might not be conclusive but i think as far as job postings on various dubai employment sites suggest that your observation applies to Dubai as well

yeah sure..

There's also a technicality/ legality, if you’re coming into the country on a student visa you cannot be legally employed (under the terms of the visa); any work that you may do will have to be "off the book", if you are caught you would be deported. I hope working for a month.. or may be...

Thats really scary..

awesome post.. 8) considering the logics and legal aspects.. how about asking the company to actually give me an employment on the basis of my past experience but dont pay me for a month or two. like make me employee on probation. After a month if i dont satisfy the admins am fired.. otherwise we de...

What is the seasonally adjusted average ratio between monthly water consumption (in kilolitres) in UAE households with an average salary of 20K or more and the number of cats older than 3 years that reside at those houses, excluding short-hairs?

I got my university saying.. pay us this much and we will send you a visa sponsorship.. Now the question is; what to do with visa sponsorship letter? i mean is it enough for me to just take that letter to airport and fly to UAE ? who will put a visa stamp on my valid passport ? UAE embassy here in m...

why u didn't ask the embassy in ur country about that university?
again.. its like you answering "why dont you ask the doctor" to somebody who wants some information on a disease.

Well I've been exploring this forum and most of the guys spoke about Bayt and other online stuff.. but am looking more into agencies where i can go myself and submit CV's.. could you please name any with quick turn around times.. and real contacts with various HR departments. It shouldn't be like su...

dxbsoul.. you almost answered everything without getting the information.. :) You are absolutely right about the university accreditation..
