Hi Folks,

I’m 15+ Years experienced Consulting & Solution Selling Salesforce leader moving in a couple of weeks to Dubai/ Abu Dhabi.

QQ: What are some of the most prominent job search platforms beyond LinkedIn you have leveraged for your job search efforts?

TIA.

For someone with your profile, I suggest getting out and meeting people over coffee. Create your network here and sell yourself. Most platforms,including LinkedIn are subpar here.

Hi,
Need some advice. My pet had been eating his kebble food on a consistent basis. Then I introduced a bit of raw chicken into his kebble and loved having it even more. But now I'm realizing that if I don't add chicken, he just doesn't eat his regular kebble food. What should I do? (Don't want to feed chicken every day)

My coworker brought a puppy to work, who bit my hand. I ended up losing my temper and yelling at them. Now everyone is mad at me for blowing up at work, even though this is something I shouldn't have had to deal with in the first place!

Hello all. I have applied for almost 600 jobs over LinkedIn since we shifted to Dubai in January 2022, I received a call back only from 1 employer, I went through the interview process with them but the result was rejection. It's been 8 months since the move but there is no luck in finding a job here in the HR domain. Can someone help me with understanding the market in the UAE related to the HR domain?
