Hey guys
Just wanted to ask a quick question.
I was offered a job in Dubai.
as an IT consultant.
THe package they offered me is
7500 basic sallary, which goes up to 8,500 once i complete my MCSE , which they are paying for
2000 dhs car allowance, or a brand new top of range honda civic .
3,500 accomodation allowance
phone
laptop
1 return flight back to the uk
and medical insurance
minimum working hours of 44, unsocialble and long hours expected of me.
and offers lots of experience.
What do you guys think of that?
I am scottish,and just completed my degree, and have 3 years IT experience in networking, troubleshooting etc.
Is this a good or bad offer?
cheers for the help guys, i turned the job down, and now they offered me 9,500 as basic plus the other allowances so 15,000 total.
ne better now?
Very low salary - you will have to spend entire salary just to pay house rent
so far so good ah
so far so good ah
You will not get lots of experience here. Unfortunately, there are more incompetent people in the ME than competent ones, so chances are you will not get good experience here.
This is not enough !. i have a friend just rented a one bedroom apartment in Dubai, it's costing him 10'000 AED per month and he was lucky to find it.The figures just don't add up, if you come over your just going to be unhappy, believe me.
Thanks bud heh but i'd rather work in the middle east.
heh
To be honest with you, you can start as a fresh grad for 50-60 k in North America!
