Hey people,

Hows everybody doing? I am from The Netherlands and I'm looking for a job here in Kuwait. I used to work as an Administrative assistant.

Do you guys know where I can find a well paid company that hires Europeans?

get a profile there, if you do not already, and then look for HR headhunters in Kuwait. it is a fairly simple process.

Also, as good as these recruitment websites are, they are no match for the good ol' use of Google.

use it. trust me. it is much better than applying through an intermediary.

go onto google, search for administrative assistant jobs in Kuwait, go to the website of companies that are hiring etc. and place a CV there.

People, that goes to all in general. It is much better to apply to companies directly, even if they do not have opening, merely leave a CV there (as long as they have a "Careers" tab on their website), and sit back and relax.

At best, you have increased their talent pool, and if even if you do not get a job in the immediate time frame, they will have you in their records for any future positions that may open up.

I'm proof of that.

So, in closing, applying to companies directly by searchin for jobs on google yields much better results than merely going thru bayt, monster, gulftalent, q8cv, naukrigulf etc.

chances are jobs posted on forums are blue-collar.
