I graduated last year (I'm Bosnian), got my yearlong work permit, went to California, spent 3 months looking for something and found nothing, decided to cut my losses and came here (my parents are here). No bread yonder sadly, I got tons of friends jobless...no one I know back in the States has got a job recently but many have lost so...luckily it's all smiles here. I will give you a bit of advice, they're real slow here, well the big companies/institutions at least. And like in the States you gotta apply at 50 positions and then maybe a few will reply, but don't get disenchanted, there's tons of openings and a lot of people apply claiming they know English, but as you will see only rarely are they up to scratch when it comes to business correspondence, or technical writing particularly. Arabic too, many people here will tell you that you don't need it but it's hogwash, especially if you can write literary Arabic you're far ahead of most of your competitors, even Arabs too lol :)
Look for pace to pick up after eid, there's tons of construction projects getting announced on a daily basis, there's gonna be jobs aplenty here for at least the next two decades :)
