How diffcult is it for an experienced software developer to find a job in dubai. Especially in Microsoft notnet technologies.

Possibly quite difficult. The IT industry is almost exclusively run by alumni from Bangalore and there is very little actual software development going on here. It is normally bought in from abroad as completed programming and then applied and maintained here by technicians from Asia.

An expert in notNet should have no problems.

But seriously, there is some software dev work going on in Abu Dhabi cos I'm doing it.


DK: Just curious, what is your source for that information? Grape vine or are you in the industry?
