I remember when I was trying to get a tourist visa and I had to comb through this thread to gather as much info as I could. Great to say it ended up being easier than I thought cos' I already had a rough idea of what to expect.

However, I am now a resident in UAE and I was able to get the residency visa myself without any help from an agent. I have summarised the process on this thread: https://www.nairaland.com/5842085/how-got-uae-residence-permit

You can also check it out if you want to have an average idea of how to get a residence visa in UAE all by yourself.

Thanks to everyone that has dropped useful information on this thread in the past, only God can reward you.

Nice work on your YouTube channel. I went through the same process and also got mine as well.

The process is straightforward in as much as you have money and meet the requirements.

MimieJay:
Very right. Thanks.

Hello house am asking on behalf of someone......

A friend who has the desire to travel to UAE after the covid pandemic, wants to know if $500 a month salary without rent or transportation is a good idea?

Is this idea a good one?

Please I'm new on this thread and I'm planning to come to Dubai after the pandemic and my agent told me that he has gotten a job for me which is plastic company or tiller work, my question is what is the nature of this job because I don't trust that man and he said my salary is around 130k, i am 23 years old I don't want a job that give me stress (lol)

Cafisis:


Tiller Job is not a good job. The Sun will deal with you.
Don't trust him.
You might not even see the job he is even promising you.

Silas12345:
Thank you bro, what of that plastic job

Ope4Christ:


None.

Every other menial jobs like cleaners, maid, waiter/waitress, packers, construction assistants etc pay between 750 to 1200 Dirhams monthly since they are likely going to give you accommodation. But if accommodation is not given, the salary might increase a bit.

Few technical jobs like drivers, tillers, mechanics, sales attendants etc can earn between 1000 to 2500 Dirhams monthly.

Graduates who have authenticated their certificates like Admin officer, Teachers, Assistant HR, Accountants, Nurses etc can earn between 2500 and 4000 Dirhams monthly. It could be a little bit higher or lesser depending on experience and the type of organisation you work with.

Hello guys. What skills are in demand in UAE? I plan to move there soon

Ope4Christ:


None to be precise.

It is better to plan your way to Europe or America, but if you still want to come be prepared for the challenges ahead.

Thanks.

charliesyndrom:
Highly challenging u mean I believe u mean the difficulties in getting a job and the high cost of living.....could u pls list some other challenges aside these mentioned?

charliesyndrom:
Hello gurus, how long does it take to authenticate certificates and how much? Is it a day thing? Would they do actual verification from the school? Also, my school has not done any convocation since 2016 I graduated so I don't have the cert yet, I v been using Statement of Result since graduation.... Can statement of result be authenticated in the place of certificate ?

charliesyndrom:

Hello gurus I need your advice, I work with a security company in Nigeria as an Administrator of a software which is used in creating the rosters and time sheets that security officers use in working in their various sites. it's an Intl company with one of its branches in UAE. I'm thinking of either speaking to my HR if a transfer would be possible or going to UAE with a tourist visa and locating the company. I believe that asking for a transfer from my HR can only work out if there is a similar vacancy in my line of duty in their branch in UAE. What would u guys advise? Though I don't know if the company's branch in UAE wound welcome a transfer because I wont say my job is an expatriate job which is sought after or in demand, although, most vacant openings for the position usually require previous knowledge on the software. I have a year and half experience on the job. I am single, a Bsc holder in Banking and finance, 2nd class, but with the poor pay I receive in Nigeria I have to opt for better opportunities. I have applied for so many jobs but probably cos I don't have anybody pulling strings for me I've not gotten any. I'm fed up and that's y I am considering moving out. I dont have the funds to chase Canada, America or Europe and that's y I'm choosing UAE. Advice please
