Dubai is one of the most multicultural places you could live in. I love getting to know people and my stay here has provided me just that! Friends from all over the world.
Careers – you have a wide range of career opportunities, but you need to be bold and confident as you will be competing with peers from all over the world.
Education – reputed schools and universities have their campuses here.
Food – you can taste any cuisine you want, although it may cost you much more than usual.
Religion – it is an Islamic state by law but very tolerant to its Expat population practicing their own religion as long as it is done respectfully and within their rules.
Rent – on the higher side but again a wide range is available. You will definitely be able to select one that fits your budget and lifestyle.
Lifestyle – you can go all out or you can be most comfortable in your bubble. Dubai is know for its extravagance.
Overall an amazing place to work, live or visit.

Although, Dubai provides a great deal of job opportunities, very good education and reasonable accommodation. It does contain a life full of glamour, so be careful not to get sucked it in. It is advisable to apply at multiple companies that sponsor your work visa and housing (optional) before coming here. Make sure to do your research!

Depending on where you are relocating from I would recommend a visit to Dubai prior to making a decision as the lifestyle can be quite different. The heat and humidity takes acclimatisation during the summer months, various areas to consider for living, schools if you will bring children to name a few. That said, Dubai offers a very good lifestyle that caters to many interests.

Dubai, the perfect blend of the East and the West, is a charming place once you know your ropes around the city. Known as the financial hub of this region, it offers lucrative jobs and opportunities to its expatriate community, while it ensures there are schools, amenities, clubs, parks and recreational facilities for expat families. Being a tourist attraction, it is dotted with luxury hotels, beaches, theme parks, and food outlets that boast of international cuisine from all over the world, making it the perfect ‘home away-from-home’ place.

Dubai is a multicultural society where everyone respect each other. Christians, Muslims, Hindu and other religions live in harmony. Finding work in Dubai is relatively easy especially if you hold a good experience in your home country and you hold a college degree.

Dubai is a very culturally engrossed city. Before arriving here, one should study its history and its culture to prepare themselves so they do not face a culture shock. They abide by strict rules and follow the Islamic law. If you like to keep yourself busy, meet people of different cultures, attend thrilling night parties and are able to afford a high-living standard, this is the city for you.

Dubai is a beautiful city with six months winter and six months hot summers. It has splendid infrastructure, marvellous skyscrapers and ultimate satisfaction in your lifestyle. The city also provides first rate education facilities and affiliations from the best universities around the world. The residents can enjoy amazing nightlife along with multi cuisine food outlets and extravagant shopping centres. The expats benefit complete safety, healthcare benefits and security at any time of the day and the government takes care of every individual with special care. Dubai is the perfect city to live with family.

It is very difficult to manage to make ends meet. It is quite an expensive city. However, if you have high qualifications from university you will not find it difficult to get employed somewhere that pays well.

It is recommended that you land yourself a job before moving to the Emirates. Depending on the country you will be migrating from, get realistic and calculate the cost of living in Dubai. Your final package should reflect your industry benchmark, your experience, and relocation expense. Most firms offer flight tickets for you and your dependents, annual or biennial flights back home, money towards schooling, housing, and health insurance. Sure, Dubai is exciting for its tax-free income but the overall cost of living in the city can be heavy in your pocket. Depending on the area you opt for, rent would be the biggest expense you incur here.
