Default Been offered a job in Dubai

As the title states I have been offered a job working in publishing for around 18,000 dirham per month. I'm some what confused about the cost off living from rent to food, bills and genrally most aspects. I've looked around the internet trying to get some idea but havn't had much luck. I know there are many out there that would jump at this job offer. BUt I would like to be clear in my mind about what I am getting into. Can anyone give me a run down about genral living in Dubai. I would be most greatfull.

I'm also very inteseted in the sailing aspect off life out there. So any further infomation about this would be great.

Hello Dropdis,

Currently where are you based in? I live in Dubai. Its a nice place but the rents are have hiked recently to the greatest extent. Dhs. 18000 per month is a decent salary but again it depends if you will stay with your family or all alone.

Incase of any more specific questions please feel free to mail me.

Best regards,
Sameena.

You'll need to be a lot more specific.

A list of employment agencies can be found on one of the sticky threads
