I am interested in moving to Dubai. I have several years management and HR experience. I have two children so I am so leary of scams. What is the best option for finding a job? Do you have names of agencies or companies that I could apply to that would have Expat packages?

Hi Ali,

I am sorry to here about that you were victim of a scam. I don't know if this will help recover your money but you could try to report this to the authorities in Abu Dhabi are see if they can trace the perpatrators and maybe stop other innocent people being scammed.

What are your skills? What kind of job are you looking for? Are you already in Abu Dhabi?

You can start by consulting some local recruitment agencies in Abu Dhabi - they will be well placed to advise you on you job prospects. You can also try local newspapers.

Do not however that it is not advisable to arrive in Abu Dhabi without a firm job offer.
