Title: Message for Illyun - Dubai?
Post by: dubaiphil on 12 February 2008, 09:31: Hi Illyun

Managed to make the move over to Dubai yet? How's it going?

Anyone else on here currently living in Dubai - it's about time we set up a UAE GTI club....

My brothers mate is living in Dubai and he has a red Golf GTI, so if you see another red one going about it's probably him

Post by: dubaiphil on 12 February 2008, 11:11: LOL! I've seen 3 other red GTIs - only one 3 door though, when I was filling up recently - what's he got?

The other two were all lined up at the lights with me!

What sort of job are you after? It's getting a bit pricey over here so it's better to get a job in the UK and be relocated - you'll get a better package. Check out Monster etc.....

I work in the insurance industry. A few people have relocated and the larger companies are setting up a presence there, emerging markets in that part of the world make it a good base. Been scanning for good packages.

Post by: illyun on 16 February 2008, 17:31: Hi Phil... sorry but I've been in Jordan for the past week so didn't see the message. I was meant to start the job last Monday but the client changed the project scope at the last minute and the contract fell through :sick:. It was a very good package - Ã‚£600 per day with accom and flights :sick: I still may be coming out in a few months time though...
