Dear all:
If you are coming to the UAE聽 hunting jobs, the best things to do is doing by yourself .... do not pay money those agencies which offer聽 you delivering your CV to many employers.聽 I have done so without results at all.
Be careful with:
wisdomjobsgulf.com -聽 it seems to be a nice place to apply for a jobs but.. after days I have noticed that they repeat jobs it looks like a spam - appears jobs with old dates and they show as it were published recently; I paid to them too;聽 they promised to deliver my CV to employers but I have received none calls from them.

cvcarrier.com聽 if you go to this website they offer delivering your CV; they have different packets ..but also is a fraud.. I have paid them and lost my money; I looked for them in the address they report聽 on website and is a lay; I was in the building the building is under-construction there are not offices there.聽 I have written to them asking for money back and they never answered back.

The best things to do is going to official websites and networking with your friends and friends of your friends.聽

You could try Internations to make contacts at very least - networking.

And just what can you do on Internations that you can't do here?

I was a member of Internations and I requested that they cancel my membership. I never regretted doing so, not even once.

During my years of involvement here on Expat-blog I have never been nearly as dissatisfied as I was with Internations.

I believe the best way to get a job is to come on tourist visa, stay with relatives or friends, then you can start looking for job using the newspapers or randomly by fax, email, or office visit to the organization that match ur field of work. Being yourself physically in the country gives you all the advantage u need to get a job.

Honestly, I find internations more professional, and think its the right place to find professional network.

I also think, Linkedin.com is awesome website if you looking for jobs. I received many interview calls through my profile on linkedin
