Well, I would like to extend this post to you as an advisory that while in Dubai or anywhere in the UAE, this site will be a big help to you scouting for work. A lot of friends referred this company to me as an aid in landing a job. And it never failed for me.

Once inside the site, you will be instructed to email to them your CV and to deposit an amount of one hundred fifty to sixty five to any Emirates Bank branches. Once deposited through either the ATM deposit machine or over the teller method, grab the station ID from where you deposited the amount and SMS this to the mobile number indicated in their web site.

You may want to call the mobile number and a Filipino guy (Joey) will take your call for confirmation or verification of your payment. They will then submit your CV to thousands of prospected employers according to your qualification mentioned in your CV or upon account application.

These things I did and later, I got several phone calls and above thirty emails in my inbox for the next two weeks. There were days I was busy with examinations and interviews. Mostly, I had telephone interviews but those were better than nothing.

While I had few offers later on resulting from that endeavor, it's just slightly sad I had to make a decision and had to travel back home to see my wife and two small daughters. I had to set ground for now and find my strength once more in them.

Nevertheless, I realized I am a little out of faith and didn't seem ed to believe them right away. These thing the company had been doing is great and should be able to help others land to a job of their dream. While resulting from my decision of home-coming I lost a little more than hundred Dirhams, I found the service to be greatly satisfying.

UAE National ID Program Proposed to Seize

A Federal National Council committee has recommended that identity cards be issued only to Emiratis only. Not to include the general expatriate population of UAE. The Emirates Identity Authority (EIDA) have been struggling its efforts to issue cards to all of the five million population that is currently and legally living inside the UAE. Thus came this recommendation that the program shall be applied just for all the national citizens instead.

There had been a surmountable panic in the UAE this past few months because of the mandatory ID system that will supposedly contain all the individuals personal information. It was said that failure to compliance would result to salary bank accounts being freezed among other sanctions.

Just recently came this news about the program to be altered. The FNC committee has suggested that the Government should only issue Labor Cards to foreign workers and individuals living in the country for an expireable two years as reported in the local news paper, the National last Thursday.

According to the paper, the committee members wrote a brief report regarding the change of plan to push the ID program. To wit:

"The goal is to have a comprehensive database about those who work in the country. The ID card should only be given to citizens," said Mohammed al Zaabi, a member of the specialised labour committee.

The FNC is expected to take up the recommendation at its next meeting in January. If the FNC, which is an advisory body, passes the committee recommendation, it will be submitted to the Cabinet. They will then decide whether to adopt it or not.

Now this is important, EIDA on Tuesday released a new definitive time guideline in a bid to avoid confusion for ID card registration in the UAE during 2009. UAE residents and professionals working in the government and private sectors will have until Feb. 28, 2009 to apply for the card, it said.

According to the schedule, residents working in the federal and local government sector, and professional residents including their family members can register for the new national ID card from this month to the
end of February.

This news is still not certain since the issue is at its proposal period only so lets be guided accordingly.
