Salam everyone,
I’m reaching out here in hopes of finding some support or guidance. A month ago, I was laid off from my role as a sales representative at a financial services firm due to company-wide cost-cutting. The business had been struggling, resulting in the closure of multiple branches in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, leaving only the head office operational. Unfortunately, despite consistently exceeding my sales targets, I was among the 100+ employees let go as part of the downsizing.
Since then, I’ve been actively searching for a job but haven’t had any luck so far. The job market here is incredibly tough to navigate without a strong network, referral, or recommendation, which has made things even more challenging.
This situation has become even more urgent for me as I got married six months ago, and my wife and I are expecting our first child. If I’m unable to secure a job by January, I may have to return to my home country, where opportunities are even harder to come by.
I have a bachelors degree in Finance/Economics/Management and over five years of experience in the tech and financial services sectors with a strong track record. I’m confident in my ability to add value in sales, business development, or related roles, and I’m open to exploring opportunities across different industries as well.
If anyone has leads, referrals, or advice, I would truly appreciate it. I’m happy to share my CV or provide more details about my experience.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and any support means the world to my family and I.
Jazakallah Khair
I have golden visa from Abu Dhabi, I got it from my previous job which I quit to set up my own ecommerce business. I have a trade license from Sharjah Free zone. I do not live in the UAE, I come every few months to check on the business. How can I sponsor my wife and kids on my golden visa? Is salary certificte and tenancy contract tawtheeq required? If salary needed, can I just print a salary certificate on my own comoany letterhead and provide it to immigration? I asked a typing centre and I was told Abu Dhabi require both tenancy contract and salary certificate.
Hi, I’m looking for a specific type of restaurant here in AD that serves a dish called fawareg. Which is basically stuffed lamb intestines and stomach.
I could only find fawaregji but that’s sooo far from me. I’m near Khalifa A. Anyone knows any restaurants that sell this dish? Even if it’s like a once a week thing?
Thanks!

I quit my job, approaching grace period but didn't break my lease early enough and need to leave the country as soon as I can. The apartment itself is mostly cleared out, I just need to get it painted, pay the break fees and get everything cancelled (wifi, ADDC). Is this feasible to do in less than two weeks?
Any recommendations where to play football and basketball with a group? Well organised and good facilities?
Hello Redditors, What's the procedure for obtain the visit visa if my parent is resides there. Can I get a visit visa if I am attending to a short course visa. I have searched around the web but still confused.

As someone who considers UAE a home, having lived in Abu Dhabi most of his life and cant think of a life outside it, I would like to take some time to wish you all fellow residents and citizens of this beautiful little country:
It's been 53 years since UAE formed and it has provided a certain level of support and home to many residents who came to this country long ago.
On top of that I would like to wish everyone a very prosperous and a Happy National Day to all its residents and citizens, and also that we get the opportunity to celebrate more!
Have a good one guys, be safe and responsible.
Regards
KV

hi anyone knows a good laundry shop in Abu dhabi that washes blackout curtains?
Whenever I pass by any arabs on the street wearing kandoora they all have the same smell of perfume. I'm not sure if it is oud or bakhoor, I have oud perfume so I think it is not oud.
I understand bakhoor has different scents as well? Can you please tell me what is it so I can buy for my self.I really like the musky, leathery scent that I smell from most arab guys.
I feel it odd to type down this title when I am already an outgoing person who likes to talk with people alot. The thing is that I am joining real estate industry for the first time but what i find it very tough is finding proper contacts or even contacts who wish to discuss about the property that is being offered.
Is there any advice how to get clients and contacts who could reflect my interest of topic?

Hi, I’m 17 and living in the UAE. a few days ago I filed a report with the Ministry of Interior’s Child Protection Center (from the website) about something that happened to me when I was younger. I made the report to protect my younger cousins.
The problem, i reported it a week ago and they sent me an email telling me to call them i replied that don't feel comfortable talking on the phone because of my social anxiety and also my family doesn't know about any of this i didn't tell them because I'm scared of their reaction i didn't know what to do and i was scared something might happen to those kids so i reported it. after I gave them the information they requested after explaining about my social anxiety they didn't contact me again, i sent a follow up but its been days.
Any advice would help because I honestly don’t know what else to do right now.
Thanks for reading this and for any help you can give.
ps. i also posted this on 2 other subreddits

Hi, I (f27, from London) recently accepted a teaching job offer at a school in Abu Dhabi. They will be providing accommodation (small studio apartment) i will be covering all other costs incurred myself.
I was just hoping for some advice on where to get affordable things to set up and get started. I know I'll need to buy everyday products from somewhere, and set up phone and banking services.
Any advice for anything I'll need? Or is there anything you'd recommend I take with me?
Lastly, a silly question- but is the tap water drinkable?
Thank in advance 💕
As the title says.
I've recently looked into it and want to workout. I'm not sure about fitting a pull up bar in my house.
So are there any parks with pull up bars that I could use? If you have any other suggestions on how to start with calisthenics, drop them too.
TIA
