Working in United Arab Emirates

The United Arab Emirates is not an island, but it offers strong hospitality opportunities in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Ras Al Khaimah and other destinations. Hotels, resorts, restaurants, attractions and airlines regularly recruit interns and entry-level staff, especially in rooms, food and beverage, guest services and events. Life is modern, international and fast-paced, with excellent shopping, transport, beaches and entertainment. The culture is multicultural, while local customs require respectful dress in public places, consideration during Ramadan and compliance with UAE laws. Employers normally arrange an employment or internship visa and work permit; candidates should not work on a tourist visa. Before relocating, confirm salary, accommodation, meals, transport, insurance and visa sponsorship. Dubai accommodation can be expensive, so employer-provided housing or allowances are particularly valuable.
