I want to share a bit of work experience in this article. when I was working in Dubai, Hopefully this is useful for you.
Before discussing the work, it is important to further increase knowledge about Dubai. Dubai in Arab is one of the seven emirates
most populous city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). It is located along the southern coast of the Persian Gulf on the Arabian Peninsula.
The city is sometimes called Dubai City to distinguish it from the emirate. Well, many people misrepresented Dubai is Abu Dhabi, probably because both are part of the United Arab Emirates.
That must be understood is the term uni emirate is another word from the state, It's like Malaysia which has 14 states where each state is led by a small kings.
Abu Dhabi is the capital of the United Arab Emirates and is about 1 hour drive from the city of Dubai.
The five states (emirates) others are: Ras Al Khaimah, Ajman, Fujairah, Sharjah and Umm Al Quwain. Dubai has two seasons, summer and winter. In the summer, temperatures can reach 45-50 degrees Celsius. very hot. Approximately if at 12 or 1 pm we on the road, the body such as
surrounded by ants due to 'humid' very. I can not go out without the use of sun glasses, I mean really a proper sunglasses strong to withstand the extreme weather.
Anyway, my first time to Dubai in 2004 as a result of chance to get information from a friend about a job through an agency in London. Long story short I was in-interview and pass, wait for about 2 months and then left there by using the Emirates Airlines. Ticket di'provide 'free by the company so no need to worry about going out a lot of money. The most money out to pay the agent fee equal medical check-ups only. I work in the hotel named Madinat Jumeirah, the hotel into the Jumeirah Group in which the iconic Burj Al Arab or Dubai is one of the properties. I worked for approximately 3.5 years in the Private Dining Room and Restaurant. Many new things that I can in there, good and bad, including the opportunity to meet with important people or celebrities the world who happen to choose Dubai as their holiday destination. I will not talk much about how my job, like what, but I'll try to summarize it into a few tips that hopefully can be useful for you all.
Here are the tips (based on my experience):
1. Usually the easiest to work or look for a job in Dubai or Middle East countries other. You will find a lot of agents in major cities that were recruiting to go to this city. You may have to set up some money to pay agent fees and medical check-ups. The costs could reach nearly 5 million. My advice, if you have a hobby to open a website. application apply directly through the hotel's website, as Jumeirah.com. On its website that there is a job vacancy could be filled immediately. That way we can save time, without the need to shell out more money to pay agent fees etc. As it turns out the hotel provides free tickets and a free medical check-up in dubai if you accepted to work there.
2. ENGLISH IS A MUST ... Obviously, because there you will work with a variety of people from different cultures and nations, the language used must have the international language of English. If you can Arabic or other languages such as Japanese or Russian may also tuh, because it can 'language allowance' in addition to salary, quite right?
3. WONT CRACK UNDER PRESSURE ... This condition usually makes people resign or 'early retirement' from dubai. At the beginning I worked there, in the department where I work there are 13 people of Indonesia and a year later there were only 5 people in Indonesia. Usually the most frequently heard complaint is not able to adapt to the weather and the work environment. I tell you the truth, one of Indonesia's most industrious, but the constraints of the people we are have a tendency to succumb to other nations. Koq many Indonesian people who occupy a good position there.
4. DRINK LOTS OF WATER ... It beneran.Terkadang due to our busy at work, so we are not aware of the condition of our own bodies. Dehydration occurs very rapidly there. I've suddenly got dizzy and faint to be taken to the doctor and it turns out the cause is less liquid.
5. THE CHOICE IS YOURS TO TAKE ... You must have 'on certain goals' or short-term goals
or long-term goals, how long you will be working in dubai? How long have you been in one position? And so forth. Many of my friends who had a good career in Dubai, choose Dubai as a stopover while, that they might continue to cruise ships such as Radisson Seven Seas Cruise Line, and many are deciding to get out of Dubai because of the lack of good career and it is growing very rapidly in Indonesia or other countries.
So a few tips from me. It's not much, but I hope the tips I give you a bit of this may be useful to you in the future. Thank you and keep spirit
