Hi,

I am working in UAE for a IT services company delaing with Compaq and Microsoft . i have finished my CCNP & CCDP on my own with out much practical experience only with the help of official cisco books, now i am looking for job out here but there are no jobs for this profile here can any one advice me weather is should concentrate on CISCO and do any specialisation in Security?Voice or stick to the present job which is Microsoft & Compaq .
Is there any chance of improvement in the US market ?

Thanks & Regards

Hi NGA,

I was thinking of coming to UAE (Dubai) in October to look for a job in the IT sector, I've been told there are plenty of jobs there because the UAE is thought of as the Internet gateway to the middle east. I myself don't have that much experience in Cisco and I hope to complete my CCNP in July.

I saw a university in UAE post a big ad in one of the major job sites. They were hiring a lot of IT people (even looking to ship some in from other countries-families and all!!). I think it was either at monster.com, flipdog.com, or hotjobs.com. I can't remember which one, but just do a search for a job only in that area.

Hi NGA
Me too working in UAE. Completed CCNP & CCDA. As you are aware UAE market doesn't look for certificates that much. All you have to know is "Do you know to do the job?" thats it. Still there is a very slim margin for certified people. You may get a chance, but have to wait for quite sometime.

Since you are in UAE you may know the following recruitment agencies. Anyhow here is the list

www.clarendonparker.com
www.bacdubai.com
www.petrome.com
www.sos.co.ae
www.searchinternational.net
www.a1sbs.com
www.synergy-uae.com
www.etisalat.co.ae (look for job opp)
www.emirates.com (ekgroup.com)
www.bayt.com
www.careeremirates.com

If you like to contact me. Please reply with you contact tel no.

Thanks MDBilal for the links , But unfortunately none of the sites have a job for CCNP . I think we are wasting our time looking for job in a place like UAE where the market is very small and only 5-6 Cisco partners, We have to wait till the land of oppertunities picks up and we get our chance to go there . You can mail me on nikhilae@yahoo.com
