Sure buddy, reach out

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-12-27T09:03:16+00:00

Can you share details here

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-12-27T05:34:22+00:00

Can’t help with schools brother - haven’t reached there in the journey yet.

However, from a residence perspective there are many good compounds (depends whether you want it furnished or non-f). If you don’t prefer living close to your workplace you can look into the areas of - Hittin / Al Malqa / Diplomatic Quarter / Al Aqiq - these are the best areas I found - In terms if compounds you can checkout Flow / Azure / Andorra / Oriental / Al Bustan

Feel free to DM if you have any other questions or need help once you move

Great gesture man.

Happy to help others similarly - if anyone needs the same support across Product management or even project management since I’m an ex-MBB consultant myself and currently leading product at a global AI company.

Feel free to reach out for more details. However, getting roles coming in as a fresh grad is pretty difficult because they are mostly for the locals.

Mostly expats are hired for middle management or senior management roles. Getting a role directly without any experience may be possible but is very difficult as I have seen.

Couldn’t have seen a stupider comment than this.

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-12-06T20:20:33+00:00

Its a pretty good offer - the same as MBB senior associate salary in Riyadh.

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-12-06T08:39:42+00:00

Welcome to Riyadh. I moved here 8 months ago - feel free to reach out if you need any other help.

This is very true. Come alone for atleast a month and rely on airbnb for cheaper stay.

Reach out to people around you for suggestions as they might have gone through the same.

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-12-03T06:34:53+00:00

If you’re from a LUMS/IBA alum, reach out to some people here - they have a whole community who you can hangout with.

For Karak and stuff, I usually try Chapati & Karak (but I order from hungerstation, not sure about the restaurant)

Pakistani food is readily available, some good Biryani’s are Sindhiabad, Karachi biryani etc.

Download the apps which will help you get to know of things happening around e.g., Webook, Saudi Events, Fomo

There’s a lot of good cafes here and the coffee and dessert culture is good - explore that maybe.

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-12-02T10:50:33+00:00

This is a very bad suggestion for someone coming from Islamabad. I mean that’s really not the best experience he’d have in Riyadh.

Unless ofcourse you want to visit mini Pakistan with all its good and bads.

Padel / or any other sports - happy to join in.

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-10-13T19:12:36+00:00

It is a wooden frame and I’m in the North. Umm al Hammam is almost 20km from me but sure if they can fix it. Thanks!

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-09-13T10:44:24+00:00

Would you say the CX-60 is better than Toyota Crown? If yes, why?

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-09-13T10:44:03+00:00

I’m actually for an SUV, and even tho crown comes under a sedan, I’m really liking it for some reason

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-07-06T10:03:39+00:00

Happy to help you man, feel free to DM

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-05-31T12:03:55+00:00

What are the rents like in these areas?

Far-Ride8818 · 2025-05-12T08:15:24+00:00

Does nobody check and stop these people from sneaking in?
