very stupid and jobless women. if i can get them arrested and deported i would.

I highly doubt that. All those Indian women who do the scam are hardened criminals. They know he has at most 3 months to search for a job before leaving and will continue posting him. Also, he cannot keep going to sharjah daily to drag them.

They will give him...they scammed me too that is why i know them much. But thing is he should wait for the time they alloted to him so that we won't be jumping to comclusions. aThey must hv told him he has a refundable fee of 150 to collect if he does not want to proceed with d process....50% of the parole

Those crooks will not release penny back to him even if he makes the loudest noise, i just wonder why they are still in business scamming newbies. I will just advice all job applicants to restrict themselves to Dubai cos these scammers operates mostly in sharjah, Ajman etc

DrDre1:

Yes and No...Yes because Qatar isn't as developed as UAE generally and No because you can actually come with a visit visa and search for job. The visit visa is extendable for a period of almost one year but the process is completely different from that of the UAE. The person would have to be sponsored by a relative with good work status. That's the law but people usually just look for another person with similar names. Don't say I told you so lipsrsealed
There's a delicate balance between the number of job seekers and the % of opportunities. The government also has its own ways of affecting the tilt in this balance. For example, sometimes, they'd just stop issuing visas for certain nationalities when they feel their grip is getting too strong. Indians, Philipinos and a few other countries are having a hard time getting work visas now. They also discourage companies from hiring certain nationals except they really need them with some policies. I learnt recently that for a company to employ a fresh Indian from outside now, they have to deposit some money (about 10k I think) with the government for each person. Currently, for any company interested in getting contracts especially government connected, they have to show in their employee list that they have people from many countries. Due to this, they have no choice to employ blacks, arabs, other asians apart from Indians and so on. It's quite a complex thing to understand within a short period of time. Overall, I think the level of the construction industry in the two places contributes to this wage difference. There are more contracts here than there cos of the level of development.

@DrDre please explain

are you saying there are safety jobs in qatar...abeg let us know make i pack my bags o


as for primavera p6 software can i go for the course directly or are there prerequisite courses i should take

am checking google already for that sha

DrDre1:

Yes ma'am. Wish I could be of help beyond this. If he was in Qatar with that, it would have been a sealed deal. That's why I asked him to just try if they can consider him there. Something I've noticed over time is that wages are quite lower in U.A.E compared to Qatar. Some of the companies from U.A.E come here with that kind of plan but I don't miss the chance to tell them to their face that we play by different rules here in Qatar.

By the way, for anyone in these parts or planning to come down, you can start taking intensive trainings in Project Management. If you can have 25%-30% of how to use Primavera P6 software, you will be smiling to the bank soon grin grin

What is annoying is the fact that it is a very well known scam, so how could he have fallen for it angry? I believe someone even spoke about it on the former thread a while back, and he is not a newcomer on this Dubai thread. He just dashed them that money.

lemme point out they gave him 6-7 working days to hear from them of which you wont hear from them and they gave him a cv with interview tutorials so when he makes noise that they collected money from him they will say it was for interview tips and transport bla bla....maybe m wrong... lets wait n see the outcome

Smh. You just fell prey to a very well known scam in the UAE. There are many of them in Sharjah and Ajman. After paying the deposit you will not get anything from them.

non have uploaded but i called DHA today and they said that uploading job offer and malpractice can be done by only one company. but they warned against accepting more than one offer. i have told him my opinion.

monchouchou:


I thought we already settled this. 2 companies cannot apply for the Visa of 1 person at the same time. MOL will definitely reject the second one and it will raise red flags. The second company will find out he is playing them and they might get pissed off. Tell you friend to be patient. If he doesn't trust the company asking for exit page he should go with the company that can process it while he is in Dubai. Has any of them uploaded a job offer on DHA Sheryan account??
Travel / Re: QATAR And UAE GENERAL VISA ENQUIRIES PART 2 by ken1982: 6:43am On Aug 05, 2015
yes i do

thanks

justi4jesu:



@Monchouchou has already told you what to do If i can remember vividly. If you are skeptical about exiting first before visa processing then you don't have any choice than to allow the other company that can process your visa even without you exiting. You shouldn't have any situation because so long as the company has said you should exit before they can process your visa, it means if you don't exit they cannot and will not process your visa. Hope you understand this.
Travel / Re: QATAR And UAE GENERAL VISA ENQUIRIES PART 2 by ken1982: 6:25am On Aug 05, 2015
non have applied. one said thy needed exit page to apply and the second said they can process while in dubai. we want to stick with the one who say they can process while in dubai.

i asked cos i dont want a situation where the first compny who say they need exit stamp really do not need it n may hv applied

justi4jesu:



You are looking for trouble, shey you know the UAE doesn't joke with "FINES" don't cause problem with the later company. Stick with the company that has already applied for your visa. Don't tarnish our already tarnished image further or block way for another Nigerian that could be employed in that company. Goodluck

One day u can be earning 2k in dubai...the next day u can be on 8k....i will tell u this. many people want to mk d money quick but in dubai u need patience and a valid residence to mk it...the most important thing is to get any kind of job that u can sha manage while reading....

i had a few friends who wrote nebosh...one came from nija with a month visa and could not wait to c result self..they both failed too.

also do u no how many indian hse officers r looking for job. go to jobs wanted page and u will be shocked...

try and get a sales or security job...one that u can read for nebosh on fridays...also there are many certificate courses that also stand out


sectors that thrive in dubai:


hospitality

sales

IT

Customer service/call centre

logistics and supply chain management

.....

nursing etc


i could go on and on...but to me if u want to go with safety be prepared to be patient...these guys here hv minimum uae 3 year experience for most positions in HSE.

check out that logistics and supply chain one..and also travel agent and ticketing officer jobs and certifications.....

u hv to hv interest sha in what u want to do not do it cos it seems like a way out...

jollyrogers:
Please I need your advice and suggestions. My employment visa wish I applied for never worked out but the middle man refunded my deposit, and now I entend going to UAE to take the Nebosh IGC and any other important/ necessary certification so after the certification I can search for a job also. But Nebosh certificate takes about 2months to come out and don't know if it would be a waste of money. Anoda middle man suggested I take up a security job and the run the programs while on the job. So I don't know if it would be favorable cos I heard a 2yrs contract has to be signed. So would I have to wait till after the two years to now use my certificate to get a better job or is he lying so that he would get his cut from the job visa?.
@Ken and the oil n gas dudes: wat other certification can I do in less than 30days?
@all other : please I need urgent advice. Please please.

Someone in UK or Nigeria or USA cannot know as much as someone IN UAE for the simple fact that those on ground in any country will have a better experience and "feel" of the happenings.

Thank you Monchouchou. I met with a former employee of one of the companies and he went to kish for 12 days and was sent employment offer from there....that same company asked my friend for all his documents today and they are the ones also asking for exit stamp


i guess he has to give it a shot

Exactly. If they agree to do that they your friend will know they are serious and can leave the country without much fear. I highly doubt they will go through all that if they don't have genuine intentions towards him.

It should be possible to check the status of a residency application online. Did a quick search online and got the link below. Might be worth trying. Or wait let @justi4jesu give you more info on that.

http://ednrd.ae/images/posting_files/tutorial/Visapage_status_check.htm

but wait, I assume your friend has a DHA eligibility letter right? That means they need to first apply to convert the eligibility letter to a license. The company should show seriousness by uploading the job offer to the DHA portal first, then he can exit the country.
Travel / Re: QATAR And UAE GENERAL VISA ENQUIRIES PART 2 by ken1982: 1:29pm On Aug 03, 2015
ok...can i track visa application online. my point is i can ask him to send the exit page to only one company and give dem the stipulated period they asked for (5 days for the visa process) while i go online and verify if they have applied for the visa


does that make sense

monchouchou:


If he has just an offer letter, the same way it may not be binding on the company to process his visa is the same way the company should not be able to use it to bind him.

However, when they take steps to start processing his visa on the basis of that offer letter is where the issue may now come up. No company will want to discover that they have been played like that after spending money (plus he would have wasted their time and they would have to start looking for someone else to hire). You get my point?

It may not have any implication and it may also have a lot of implications. I really really cannot say.

Ok, then what should he do. Should he call the companies and tell them he is no longer interested in them

monchouchou:


I really don't know.

Accepting 3 offer letters has an element of fraud in it so he could get a ban if one of the employers decides to pursue it. Its almost like a company promising to employ 3 people for one 1 position; its fraudulent and they can be fined for it.

Home health care, medical centre and polyclinic

can the individual face ban or his applications denied


how do i advise the friend

monchouchou:


Hmn, some people are looking for 1 offer letter and someone else has 3 grin grin

Anyway, it will definitely look bad if even 2 of those companies try to process his visa at the same time. Definitely immigration can only process one, but the other companies may cause trouble for him if they spend money trying to process his visa only to be told that he has played a prank on them.

Is it that not even one of those companies is reliable and trust worthy? why is is having such fear that they will not process the visa? What sector are the companies?
