They ask for my current salary and expected salary. How much should I expect given salary is not transparent in the region.

Stop with the unnecessary meetings. PLEASE.

Which Mckinsey office in the Middle East is hiring? Does Dubai office still hire experienced hire now?

Situation: got an offer from firm X; highly likely to get a better offer from firm Y but official offer would take a couple of more weeks in best case scenario. However, firm X’s offer validity about to run out. Would you: (1) accept X’s offer now but rescind later if Y converts (2) ask X for additional time to decide (they’re “prestigious” and may not offer additional time...) (3) Play straight, decline X and hope Y converts (4) any other creative ideas ...???
