So much development so many job Dubai is the place of oppotunity itself. However if you are a born idiot and have no repsect for other people then I guess you have no chance of getting a job no matter what. Check out the email converstation below and to think this guy actually applied for a job at the company North 55. I don't think this man will ever get a job in Dubai as the whole agency network will know about him by now, total loser.
From: Amir Saffar Sent: 02 December 2006 01:22 To: Amir Saffar Subject: multimediator/web designer position Amir Saffar
To Whom It May Concern: I am a web developer/designer with experience in designing corporate, commercial, retail, and business web systems. With more than 6 years experience designing Internet/multimedia systems professionally in a production environment, I could be a valuable asset to your web design and multimedia team. Managing projects, task delegation, and client relations have been necessary skills at my previous employment positions. These have always been tasks that I excel at and enjoy. My experience in web site consultation critiquing usability, functionality, aesthetics, and search engine placement can help clients with their existing web content by introducing them to innovative and cost-effective solutions.
My enthusiasm, creativity, communication skills and ability to work without supervision are my strong points. I have extensive design experience using Flash, Dreamweaver, HTML, CSS, VB, C#, SQL, Photoshop, Illustrator, QuarkXPress, 3dsMax, and other programs. I would be able to create a dynamic company presence for you on the Internet.
I am currently on vacation for two months in the region. Since I have a Canadian passport, traveling to the UAE would not be an issue for me at all. I also have to mention that since I have lived in a multicultural country and because of my background, I have been trained to work with people who have different cultures and backgrounds. Therefore I hope my experience in this field could be a valuable asset to your company. I would welcome an opportunity to discuss my qualifications and experience in greater detail. I am available for an interview at your convenience.

it's very simple Mike. You are interested in my profile and i wanted to know how much you were able to pay. no response means: you either can't pay that much, or you only hire indians and pakistanis who don't ask for a good salary. but dude, i am neither indian or paki and i have never worked for less than 2000 usd/month. You got it now!?

Jesus, that's some chip you've got on your shoulder there pal. Before the email I received on 11th December, I'd only gotten one from you - the first, which included your CV. As far as I can see, it didn't mention money. If you sent another after that, then sorry, but I didn't get it, which is why I didn't reply. Anyway, it's all worked out well. I wouldn't want a bigotted arsehole like you working with us, and I'm sure that the Indians and Pakis who work at North55 - most of whom earn more than US$2,000 a month, some by a factor of three - are glad that they won't have to put up with your small-minded bullsh*t either. The Brits, South Africans and Canadians will probably be pretty cock-a-hoop too. Best of luck finding a job in Dubai - I'm sure you'll get exactly the kind of position you deserve. Cheers, Mike

i'm sending this e-mail twice. i wanna make sure you get it this time!!
2000 USD/month is a joke bro. I got paid that much when I graduated from College/without any exp. I'm pretty sure most of you guys work at coffee shops when you finish your work at the studio. What doesn't make sense to me is, why would a guy from N America or Europe want to work for that amount. Perhaps you've had a low paid job back home and you are satisfied with 2000 USD! weren't you a cleaner/or a security guard…Mike!?

From: Mike Platts To: Amir Saffar Sent: Sunday, December 17, 2006 1:41 AM Subject: Fw: got it? You really are an irritating little troll aren't you? You can barely write English, and you seem to have a problem reading it too. So I'll break it down for you: not. wanted. here. Now f**k off. All the best, Mike. PS - I've taking the liberty of copying some of my colleagues in the industry here, just in case they too should have the misfortune of hearing from you. I'm sure they'd be kind enough to forward it on to their pals, too, and with any luck you'll be back f******ing moose in time for Christmas. (Oh, and by the way, if you're such hot sh*t, why the reluctance to include a link to any of your work in your CV? So you've got six years' experience - big deal. You don't seem to have been able to hold down a job for too long - or were they short-term cleaner/security guard contracts?)

by the way, Mike you were either a 1. Security Guard 2. Cleaner 3. On Welfare 4. had a criminal background, so you couldn't get a job back home 5. a bad designer who never worked for a real company. One of those guys who is a pain in the ass in the production team.
who knows, maybe one day you'll be working for people like me if you ever decide to return to Europe or N America. * I guess would lose the job within 3 months.
Don't you really have anything else to do, other than forwording useless e-mails to other people and writting a blog. Dude, if you work at a pro company, you don't even have time to drink coffee. you are not a pro!! that's it. and your e-mails are going to the garbage bin from now.
take care
