1. Most of the recruitment agencies you deal with gulf employment, require registration for specific vacancies. Some may even levy a small fee (usually 25 UAE Dirhams) for registration although the local Government does not permit collection of such service charges from prospective employees.

2. Most of the agencies will not accept CVs faxed or e-mailed to them without any specific requirement. Therefore it is advisable to check with individual recruitment agencies before sending any CV. The recruitment agencies with websites of their own list the job opportunities on their web sites - thus if you send CV/Resume without a vacancy, they will generally trash your CV.

3. Getting a job through recruitment agencies may always not be possible, particularly those seeking employment without any specific advertisement from such a recruitment agency. Those seeking employment within a limited period of time (i.e. those who are on a visit visa) should also make their own efforts in locating prospective employers through newspaper advertisements, friends and relatives working in different companies and also through direct approaches to potential employers. 'Networking' is a good way to locate jobs which are not advertised.

4. Most of the companies, without any specific opening available, will normally ask the candidate to fax or mail their CVs. More and more companies are, these days, advertising their job openings, in the corporate websites; so it is also one of the routes of locating a job in the UAE. Please visit the websites of UAE based companies which can be found in the web based business directories of UAE. It is also advisable to post resumes in the websites of recruitment agencies as more and more employers visit these websites for their manpower requirements.
