Which kind of work?

Make sure you follow the rules, UAE isn't lawless like Nigeria, and don't follow bad people(Some Nigerians) if you don't want them to implicate you and shine your eyes.

Bro, no friend in Dubai,, those 2 people you call friends are much more interested in what they will gain from you.

Did i hear you say pay agent? Better don't waste your money

Please do the following:

1. Authenticate your certificates at Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Education both at Abuja. It will assist in your process of getting good job if you're a graduate.

2. Get Police certificate of character at Force Headquarters in Obalende, Lagos, if you are in Lagos.

3. If you can drive, get International Driver's Licence should there be need to be a driver. It will ease the process of getting UAE Drivers Licence.

4. Don't raise your hope too high, you must be prepared for eventuality and be ready to do any available job for a start. E.g Security, driver, etc

5. Don't accept any job where your employer will request your traveling documents i.e your Nigerian passport. It is a bait to cage you and use you.

6. Don't depend on your friends too much, they might turn their backs at you.

7. Please go with about 200k which you will change to Dollars then to Dhiram when you get to Dubai. This will take care of your accommodation (50 - 70k monthly for shared apartment) and feeding plus others.

9. You will be given Etisalat Sim for free upon buying of airtime at the airport. Please accept it and buy data to search for jobs until you get a good one.
