hi very warm well come to you in Dubai. what kind of help you are looking

Well to start off with the Job Opportunities that Dubai offers, do you know if the website: Http/www.jobsindubai.com is legitimate?

No I am from the USA.

My friend best way is if you want to come for job, take 3 months visa. come here and than apply. there are too many sites and appear for face to face interview. if you need further help i will do.

The US Embassy is in Abu Dhabi, not Dubai.

I think that you will find it difficult to find a job while in Dubai. The jobs advertised arelow paying ones, and many do not offer a residency visa.

It is best to apply for a job in Dubai while still in the US. If they are seriuos about hiring you, they will either make you an offer, or pay your way to Dubai fir an in person interview.

As long as yoy are coming here anyway, use the time here to really ask yourself if you could live here. It is so damn hot here, and people are very rude. Driving here is very dangerous, and it is very expensive to live here. There are plenty of better jobs in the US than in Dubai. Especially in Colorado. Dubai is not like it was several years ago. This place kind of sucks.

I think you put this remark based on your experience. Will you explain?
