I’m trying to break into the tech industry in Abu Dhabi and would genuinely like to hear from people who are already working here.

I have a Computer Science Engineering degree and professional experience in the UAE, but I’m looking to move into tech
particularly data/analytics or entry-level IT roles.
I’ve been applying online, but I’m curious about what actually works in Abu Dhabi.

For those who successfully landed a tech job here: how did you get your first opportunity?

LinkedIn? Referrals? Networking? Directly messaging hiring managers? Meetups? Something else?

Would appreciate any honest advice, especially from people who’ve made the transition themselves.

Stuck in the job i hate after work i am totally exhausted

What happened to me twice a month i started act like dumb dum but rest of the month i very smart

I’m currently working as an MEP Estimator at one of the top construction companies in the UAE. I’m looking to move to Europe and continue my career in construction/estimating.
Has anyone here made a similar move from the UAE to Europe? If so, how did you find the job, which countries were easier to move to, and what visa/sponsorship route did you use?

Any advice or personal experiences would be really appreciated.

Now I’m 26, and people are still saying the exact same thing.

So I’m curious has the job market ever actually been good, or is this something every generation says?

For those who’ve been in Dubai/UAE for 10–20 years, have you seen periods where hiring was genuinely strong, or does it always feel like the market is “down”?

I live in the UAE, and honestly, I don’t really miss my parents. But almost all of my friends are constantly calling their parents or saying, “I miss my parents so much.”
It makes me wonder are they genuinely feeling that way, or do some people just say it because it’s expected?

I've noticed this happening multiple times, and it's getting frustrating. I ordered a medium juice, but the cashier tried to charge me for a large one. Another time at a salon, they added a transaction fee that wasn't mentioned beforehand. I asked for my money back.

This isn't the first time either. I've started double-checking every bill because I keep noticing small overcharges or extra fees. Has anyone else experienced this, or am I just unlucky?

Anyone up to hudayriyat beach tomorrow

I have ADHD, and I’m usually emotionally intelligent, but sometimes I suddenly act dumb or give off a bad attitude and everything feels worse. Is that an ADHD effect?
