    merong mga call center pero local lang. I mean mga taga UAE lang din customers nila. Tsaka hindi sing popular ng sa Pinas.

    tips? you'll know all sort of things sa job hunting once you're here. but the best tips I could give ay:

    1. huwag tatamad tamad at mag astang bakasyunista. time is of the essence sa mga visit visa so make sure na job hunting lagi ang mood mo.

    2. be friendly sa mga kabayan, they could help you. friendly naman most of the filipinos here. you just have to inquire. forget about being mahiyain.

    3. Wake up early! Kailangan before 9 AM na send mo na lahat ng applications mo.

    4. Be humble enough. Wag masyadong choosy sa work. May mga engineers dito na nag wo work as secretary. Number one goal mo dito ay magkaron ng working visa at hindi humanap ng dream job.wala ka sa Pilipinas so pansamatala mo muna kalimutan ang dream job mo.

    5. Create the best CV, but don't sound like you know all. make sure you can do kung ano man nilagay mo sa CV mo.

    eto mga nangyari saken sa Dubai:

    Pumunta ako dito around 3rd week ng Feb. Ang dala ko lang na pocket money less than 25,000 pesos. Two months pa validity ng visa noon pero hindi ako nakahanap agad ng work. Nag exit ako sa Kish Island sa Iran after two months. Nangutang lang ako sa mga kakilala ng pang exit ko tsaka sa tatay ko.

    After nun balik job hunting pero medyo depress na ako nun kasi malapit na naman akong mag exit pero wala pa rin work tapos panay utang pa. In between nag part time akong waiter para lang magka pera kahit papano. Sobrang naawa ako sa sarili ko kasi di ko pinangarap mag waiter (no offense). Kaya nga ako nag aral maige para di ko danasin yung hirap ng pag wowork bilang waiter tas babagsak din pala ako dun.

    May 3rd week dininig ni Bro ang panalangin ko. Natanggap ako sa work kahit di masyadong mataas ng weldo para lang magkaworking visa na ako at di na mag exit. Pero dahil nga papalapit na expiration ng visa ko, ayun kailangan ko mag exit ulit tas di pa sagot ng company. Pero ayus lang kasi atleast may work ako.

    June nag celebrate ako ng birthday ko. Burger meal lang ng Mcdo ang nakaya ko para sa sarili ko. Nilibre lang ako ng pinsan ko sa chowking.

    to be continued.uwian na e.hehe

    ayun. I was hired as a market research analyst pero hindi talaga yun ang linya ko. Medyo below the analyst standard yung salary pero tinggap ko na rin kc nga baon na baon na ko sa utang. tapos yun unti unti naka bawi ako. nabayaran ko lahat ng utang ko tas nakapag ipon ako. after 1 and 1/2 years ayun nataasan yung sweldo ko kahit papano.

    panibagong problema nung january 2009. kakagaling ko lang sa bakasyon sa Pinas nun. Nagtanggalan at isa ako sa mga natanggal. It took me 5 months bago ulit nakahanap ng work. Exit sa Oman plus financial difficulties.As in mag fo for good na sana ako sa Pinas. pero last minute nagkawork din at sobrang ganda pa ng company.

    kaya kung pupunta kayo dito. risk everything.

    karamihan ng mga kakilala ko dito hindi swerte sa first job nila. as in parang bidang artista. inapi api nung una pero sa huli ayun magaganda na work.

    kaya wag kayo mawawalan ng pag asa pag andito na kayo. tiis tiis lang and tamang outlook sa buhay.

    wag kayong tutulad sa ibang pinoy dito na anyayabang yun pala lubog sa utang.

    dami akong kakilalang pinoy dito na nakakulong dahil sa utang. note, kung sa pinas pwede mong takasan ang loans mo sa bangko, dito hindi. kulong ang katapat mo. so be careful sa pangungutang.

    The best way ay mag agency para sure na kayo na may work kayo pagdating nyo dito.

    Mahirap makipagsapalaran ngayon unless marami kayong pera para suportahan yung pag stay nyo ng matagal dito.Medyo nag pi pick up na pakonti konti ang Dubai pero not advisable pa din.

    Take note as well na 1 month na lang ang visit visa sa Dubai, pero pwedeng i extend up to a month more.

    Prepare nyo rin lahat ng authenticated document na kailangan incase makahanap kayo ng work para hindi masyadong matagalan ang processing.

    Abu Dhabi is booming now.

    for a month @ 12.4 exchange rate, estimates lang.

    Bedspace - Php 13, 640 (AED 1,100) - 1 month advance/1 month deposit; Dubai rate @ 550 per month. make sure na refundable yung deposit kung 1 month nyo lang balak magstay.

    Water & Electricity - Php 1,364 (AED 110) - 1 month average for summer, note: AED 115 water and electricity namin for mid april to mid may; depende sa usage ng bahay nyo.

    Food - Php 3,720 (AED 300) average.; pag maarte sa food can go up to AED 500. 2 kaming share sa food @ 250 each, lunch and dinner lang; pag may sobra kasama minsan meryenda and almusal. di pa kasama dyan yung snacks at pag kain sa labas.

    Newspaper - Php 446 (AED 36 ); lets say bibili ka ng newspaper 3 times a week; libre kung may mag uuwi sayo ng newspaper

    Internet - Php 496 (AED 40) pag wala kayong internet sa bahay at mag rerent ka for two hours, 5 times a week for a month kasama na pag pe pex at facebook; libre at up to sawa pag kasama na sa freebies ang internet sa tutuluyan mo at kung meron kang laptop o may magpapahiram sayo

    Pamasahe - Php 1,426 (AED 115) - estimated lang yan, bus/mrt fare. can go higher kung lagi ka nag tataxi. minimum fare sa taxi AED 10, meaning pag less than AED 10 ang fare mo kahit AED 4 lang yan, 10 pa rin ibabayad mo. though flag down rate nya ay AED 3 sa umaga at AED 3.5 sa gabi.

    Supplies(sabon, shampoo, lotion, etc) - Php 1,240 (AED 100) - estimate lang; pwede ka mag dala galing sa pinas para mas tipid

    Sim card and load - Php 1612 (AED 130); 80 sa sim and 50 sa load

    Others (for other expenses not mentioned above; emergency money) - Php 3, 720 (AED 300)

    Total: Php 27, 664 (AED 2, 231) more or more. php 27, 000 to 30,000 will do. pwera visit visa extension at ibang gastos sa pag e exit kung wala kayong mahanap na work within 1 month

    you can give them range like AED 5,000 to 7,000. depende actually sa mapapasukan mong company. minsan kasi may mababa magbigay meron naman mataas.

    ^Thanks for this comment Chad!

    but if I were you, di ko masyadong tataasan ang offer ko because of competition. Kung may taong makakagawa ng kaya mong gawin for less salary than what you're asking, syempre dun sila.
