Are we talking about job applications???
I get on average about 5 to 10 a week, unless I have a vacancy or am looking to employ someone I shread them!

If I'm not mistaken I remember reading that the taxes would be collected through DEWA by adding an appropriate amount to your account? I can't remember if this was to be a "lump sum" or if the amount would be apportioned on a monthly basis. I'm not sure though how DEWA would know what your annual re...

"I would also assume that this was only for non-leasehold properties as this should be taken care of in the levy that is payable to the property administrator " I don't understand - in English please ;) I am the tenant, the owner of the villa is the landlord... on leasehold properties there is an a...

good advice above.
we simply don't bother keeping or filing them as it takes to much time and effort, and generally speaking the job market is so fluid here, that by the time a position arrives the candidates who sent in their applications are already employed or have left the country..

i think "pot luck" is the best description i know people whos' art book collections have been censored.. with a black marking pen - purely because they depict the naked body - not in any obsene way either. others have managed to bring thier books and home videos through without any censorship at all...

IKEA IS cheap, well cheaper than most. The furniture is okay, but considering the price you pay for it don't expect it to become a family heirloom. base your selection of furniture on whether you plan to be here a few years, or just a short time. you may want to make use of your opertunity in dubai ...

spas' and beauty salons have to be segregated male and female, which i'm sure you are aware of. the salon it's self has to be registered with the department of health, as the workers actually provide a health service. in addition to this all employees have to have a medical every year, the same as e...

your school needs to be accredited and registered through the department of education in dubai before you can open the doors. additionally your staff need to have accredited teaching qualifications and recognised diplomas - these have to be attested and registered as well.

i'd say what they are offering is very borderline - if not below what you require. 1. you will have to pay the sponsorship fees for your wife and kids out of your own pocket. 2.most companies provide the employer with a ticket home once a year (annual leave), again many companies do not extend this ...

this is very long, seemingly pointless and very disjointed (and the spelling is pretty crap!) but bear with me..... march is the end of the cooler months here and the start of the summer. june, july and august being about the worst of it - it is not a pleasant time of the year to go out! having to c...

plainly put, you work over here on a contract, you either have to negotiate your benefits with your employer PRIOR to signing the contract or you have to provide and fend for yourself from your salary! there is a mandatory goverenment health scheme. this gives all expats access to a government hospi...

there are two ways of doing this. one, he can team up with a local sponsor and start his own practice - sometimes you get a good sponsor, sometimes not! he can join an exisiting practice or hospital, there are a number of these listed. i see the american hospital in dubai offers a link advertising c...

as an employee the biggest drawcard is that you can't be banned (labour or immigration) if you transfer off of your sponsors visa - which happens if you try it outside of the FZ. as an employer you can set up a business in the FZ without the involvement of a local sponsor (profit share/ lisence expe...

out of the FZ any restraint of trade imposed by an employer has to be registered (or specifically included) with your labour contract with the department of labour. if it is not, it is not enforcible, and not worth the paper its printed on. outside of the FZ the current manditory 6 month labour ban ...

most places in the area are large family villas with a mixture of nationals and expatirates. the AVERAGE price of between 120k and 200k per annum - rental. i would suggest looking on the notice board at spinneys as you may be able to pick up a single room or a sub-let in a large villa. have a look w...
