I followed this trend from day one, years now.. was planning to go to Europe but no enough money,. I took the Dubai visa, but my agent scammed me, so I had to just fly with three months visa. I entered Dubai, with 150k naira, when I got to dubai, I knew no one, no family. Told no soul I was coming to Dubai, trust me, I told no soul.. when I got to Dubai, I checked dubizzle for apartment, then I met someone even in the plane that said he could help me but I'll pay him 400aed monthly, I agreed, but when we got there I couldn't stay, I wasn't comfortable with the standard, also the problem was, it was a company accommodation for security,so he snicked me. So I went back to get an apartment online for 1000aed in albarsha. I also subscribed etisalat 100aed... I was left with like 30k naira.. I kept going for interview, my roommates were all Arabs, they helped me by giving me food sometimes. I went to a lot of interview but I changed the kind of job I was applying, I started applying for dish washer, house keeping. But luckily I got a job without interview,.. the story is so long, but I can't tell all, there were times I cried, staved. The day I got the job, that morning I was kicked out cos my rentage expired. My current job is in mall of the Emirates as a waiter, I get 3600 monthly salary, plus others like tip and sale commission, in a month I get a total of over 5000aed.. it was grace, I went with 3 months visa but I had just one month to get a job or I'll be deported...
My advice is even if u decide to use agent, be enlightened, search for job urself too. Cos agent jobs are basically poor pay most times
Also make sure u know how to use Google map,
Do subscription maybe 2aed a day or monthly
Ask questions, don't limit your self to blacks, .. integrate with Egyptian Arab, Indians and Philippine
Sleepless night pays. Just get a job to extend your visa, after 6 months change ur Job.. just make the right choice, tbh Dubai is not a perfect place.
