The United Arab Emirates is not an island but a federation of seven emirates, with major hospitality opportunities in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah. Hotels, resorts, restaurants, tourism companies, airlines, retail and events create jobs for international candidates, especially those with luxury-service, technical or safety experience. UAE culture blends Islamic traditions with a highly international lifestyle. Respectful dress and behavior are important, particularly during Ramadan and at religious sites. The climate is hot for much of the year, while air-conditioned workplaces and housing are common. Employers normally sponsor a work visa, residence permit, medical examination and Emirates ID; employees should verify the package, accommodation, insurance, flights and gratuity before accepting. Relocation costs, rent and transport vary significantly by emirate, so applicants should confirm whether staff housing or allowances are included.
