We are frm India and my fiance is leaving to abu dhabi in search of job.
Now, we have categorise our expenses into -

living expenses -
accomodation (until he gets a job)-
      Hotel or sharing accomodation - which one is better?
      How much does it cost?
      How do get a sharing accomodation?

Foood -  for 2months what is the best way to survive for the 2 months as this is purely for job purposes there is no sight seeing or any other entertainments involved.

COnsultancy charges -  as they need to met only after reaching Abu dhabi - so suggest some worthy consultancies

Travelling expenses - how much is the estimation assuming he     will be travllling to attend n number of interviews.

He is plannning to stay there for 2 months and find a job. Please help us with some estimation. Also if there are expenses that have to be incurred during his stay do mention those as well.

Hi Mythraie,

I dont know how its gonna work out ,bcoz in my openion it will cost u a lot for coming here in search for a job,u need not to come here, u can directly apply from the portels like naukrigulf, monstergulf, gulfjobs and linked in , or you can search for the companies which are in the same area of your expertise, for example if you have prior experience in IT then u can search for IT Companies career portal, I am not saying its tough but it takes time ,

after coming here there will be a lot of expenses on taxi food and accommodation. if you already know someone then well and good. any way u need to search and book the accomodation before coming here , I suggest you to go through the dubizzle.com and search for the accomodation before coming here. its better if you can explain this to the advertiser.

I hope this info will be useful for you , if you need any further help do not hesitate to ask thank you and all the best to both of you
