Bro, can we have a private conversation. Kindly provide me your mail or I should supply mine?
Can I have an idea about what you will like to discuss privately? It might be helpful for everyone to have that conversation publicly, here.

Just remembered Nairaland and this thread after a long while.

My previous handle was https://www.nairaland.com/giftdavid711 . I forgot the password so I had to create a new account today.

I posted about moving to Dubai in 2018, how I secured a job with 23,000 AED base salary and a good relocation allowance.

Everyone here said I was getting SCAMMED or I was lying.

Well, update: I moved to Dubai, I love it here. My current base salary is 29,000 AED and I have received tens of thousands in bonuses over the last few performance review cycles at my company. Even more awesome is the flexible working schedule.

I read some of the last few comments on this thread. I will give the same 2cents I gave almost 2 years ago on this thread.

Pick a field that is in demand and spend several years trying to be one of the best (absolute or relative). It is not easy, but it is an investment in your self.

What is a lot harder is coming here to work in a sweatshop.

The internet is free, go to bed every day more knowledgable than when you woke up.

Don't be quick to move ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

PS: The above is trite, but holds regardless and applies to knowledge workers mostly.

Let me know if you have any questions. I DON'T provide any jobs. The best I can do if you are a highly skilled engineer is provide a recommendation.
