John Tinsley : Money Matters

If you want to get a job in Dubai you may think the best way to do it is to fly out to Dubai and see what you can apply for and get one while you are there.  But in fact nothing could be further from the truth.

You may be lucky and snag a job in Dubai by trying this method.  But it should be said that you are far more likely to succeed in finding jobs in Dubai if you stay at home and log onto the internet using your computer.  This might sound like a very remote way of finding the work you want, but the truth is that most people who find the job they are looking for, do it through this method.

There is still a lot to be said for research though.  Find out as much as you can about working in Dubai and what kinds of jobs in Dubai are available before applying for anything.  There are countless different websites that will help you in this respect, and there are many employment agencies who might just offer the job in Dubai you are looking for.  They all have websites so access them all and see what turns up.

The point is that you shouldn’t just fly out and hope for the best.  The chances are the answers – and indeed the job – you want can be more easily found if you access the internet instead of visiting Dubai directly.

Abu Dhabi IT jobs can be found quite easily when you go online, but you will notice that most if not all of these positions do require you to have experience of some sort.

The length of experience required will depend on the company that is offering the job and what the exact position is.  For example in a recent list of Abu Dhabi IT jobs, support engineers were required to have between three and eight years of experience in that role.  IT engineers required rather less, coming in at between one and four years required for one company in particular.  In a third example, applicants for the role of a SAN administrator would only be considered if they had between five and ten years experience.

As you can see, most Abu Dhabi IT jobs do require plenty of experience.  However with that said you should always look further into every opportunity you find.  Sometimes these parameters could be issued as a guideline; if you are six months short of having the five required years and you are an outstanding candidate, you might get lucky.

Be sure that when you are looking for Abu Dhabi IT jobs, that you only look at those where you are clear on the length of employment that is being offered.  If you have any questions at all, make sure you ask them before applying.  While you can turn down an offer if need be, it is always better to know exactly where you stand before you start applying for Abu Dhabi IT jobs.
