Currently an SC in Deloitte US with 8 years prior industry experience at an EHR vendor and doing health tech strategy work for state government clients in the US.
I have US citizenship and originally Egyptian and would love an opportunity to move to Abu Dhabi or Doha.
Smart move to think of now or should I wait till I have more years under my belt to consider relocating to the middle east?

Do you know Arabic? Like proper classical Arabic, if so you'll be a hot commodity here

Grew up in the US - I can read it and can speak Egyptian dialect but writing classical arabic is a work in progress

Well communication with client in Arabic (any dialect) is still great, some working knowledge of formal Arabic will also help a lot
*I am also Egyptian (born and raised), it never stops surprising me how my knowledge of Arabic is maybe one of my key assets in this industry rather than any other technical skill 🤷

3.What about transfers to the US-EU?

4. Type of cases
