Hi I am from Los Angeles,
I am a Graphic Designer here for about 5 years.
I also have hobbies that include interior design, and most important I am a die hard Entrepreneur.
In the past I have had a few retail businesses.
And I have worked customer service for a couple years as-well. In addition to that I teach Sunday school.
So I can say that my fields of work have been eclectic.
What I want to know is… If you were me, what kind of jobs would you look for in Dubai, that pay well.
I want something where they would actually appreciate an American employee, I speak English & Farsi, I can also read Arabic but I don’t know the language.
Basically I want to beef up my resume, by taking some extra classes and doing whatever needs to be done to make my self extra qualified in the proper field of work, if Graphic Design is not the best.
So what fields or jobs do you suggest?
How much experience do I need?
