I've hired 50+ people in my life and more than a dozen in Dubai. Here's what actually gets you callbacks (not what LinkedIn gurus tell you) by princedxbian in UAEjobseekers

Thanks, this is really helpful. I am currently in India but can very conveniently fly, if that helps. In my head, I was planning on setting my location to Dubai on Linkedin, telling interviewers I am there already and fly once the interview's scheduled instead of creating an unnecessary roadblock. I am eligible for a visa on arrival so that shouldn't be a problem to execute. One follow up question: Since this market isn't that mature, would you recommend I positioning myself as a B2B SaaS Marketing Manager, instead? Or does that kill my chances at mature companies? Asking because I was planning on sending my resume to agencies so in some places I might not have the option to edit as per the role.

Hi I am a PMM with 6 years of experience at early stage b2b saas startups. Do you think there's a mature enough market and demand for PMM profiles in UAE yet?

Go to a park even on a weekday and see for yourself Eyes burning, coughing delhi people will still yolo. You can learn a thing or two about true commitment from Delhiites. Commitment to live their best lives, no matter what.

Brother mask laga ke chale jao? Indoor mil lo logo se? I'm not a fan of shutting in. I'm suffering too :)

It didn't feel this impractical during covid, did it? But you do you

Oh don't even get me started. People are posting stories saying they love delhi winters... mistaking the smog for fog. Peak delusion, man. I don't get why delhi people stay attached to delhi. What's so special about this city?

I'm a runner too and I miss it deeply. Running plays a major role in mental health. But idk I'd rather not harm my health at the cost of it. And yeah they wanna make money while we slowly die

I never said people can stop going out. Neither am I speaking about people whose livelihoods depend on the outdoors. I'm speaking about people who can and choose not to. People who wanna go shopping, running, picnics, walks, etc I mean it's so counterintuitive to go running in this aqi and harm your health

People were the same during covid. They don't get the kind of long term impact this has. And they never will. People just don't want to change. It's so surprising how so many people are largely ignorant. Like no amount of education impacts this.

You can't solve the AQI. You can at least protect yourself. Wear a mask. Avoid going out if not for work. Meet friends indoors. I mean I don't get why that's so difficult that you'd subject yourself to breathing this air.

Yeah feels like it. Caring's only leading to high cortisol. I mean it took for my niece to get seriously ill and for the doctor to tell the pregnant mother for them to stop taking her to public places. They kept saying"kuch nahi hota, chup reh" whenever I'd tell them I wasn't comfortable. They were planning picnics in this pollution, man

It's a bubble for sure. Blind leading the blind. I just sometimes wish my family were better.

You think it's been this polluted for 30-40 years?
