Everybody wants better in the life. Though Economic Crisis did a fabulous trimming on UAE job market making it tough for job hunters, the population who wants better in the life still keep on growing and getting lost in stiff conditions. All of this makes absolutely perfect environment for those who are doing business using high demand for the product they offer, which is “JOB”.
Not long time ago I was surfing on the net, and found amazing job offer with attractive salary package and fantastic benifits. I put everything aside and happily did all registration prosedure where they got all my details plus my CV. I finished by applying to some other job offers on the same site, quite honestly, without any suspect. The next day, I recieved a call, from a lady with a nice assertive tone of speaking which made me feel that I’m fkn lucky. But when I started to give spesific questions, about company, its location, salary and staff, she started to sound a bit uncertain and overwhelming…
Our ears like to hear good news, even logic says, it’s a bullshit ….
Anyways, she asked me about my timings and set an appointment for the next day, on a famous Sheikh Zaed in Crown Plaza, I agreed and reasked her for a location. She answered politely with full patience and informed me that she will send a message on my phone with all details.
I recieved a message with all details of location as I’ve been told earlier and additionaly I’ve got their web site…
The same time unpatiently I opened their website and got really dissappointed, ‘coz it showed that they are recruitment agency with a big letters of their way of working, their vision, supremacy in a recruitment business and very small mentioning that A VISIT AND A REGISTRATION COSTS 150 DHM (HUNDRED AND FIFTY) per a candidate ….
I tried to convince myself that maybe it’s a real agancy who just taking money for some extra paper work, but my logic told after complete browsing on their website that it was complete bullshit with amazing business on poor people who wants better in the life…lol
I realised that it was waste of time and waste of my energy, and now I’m trying to be more detailed and realistic in a job hunting.
