Question: Has anyone from abroad ever applied online and got a job in UAE?

or do you at least know someone who has done so?

Because what I am starting to think now is its impossible to get a gob in UAE by applying online, they never reply..

Answer:

My dad did that. We moved from Venezuela (where I am from) to Dubai in UAE, but that was 13 years ago. Nowadays it is harder to get a job generally but we are having many new teachers come in. It is worth a shot. You should have at least 5 years experience in what you do to work here. No, you don't have to know arabic by the way but you may be asked to do a course once you are here.

Good Luck!
