Just made my mind up to join my husband who is working in Dubai. I understand my husband can sponsor me but we both have no idea how we would go about that. Secondly can anyone recommend agencies for hr/office/project management or operation support type of work. My husband lives in tcom currently so I know there are good transport links to most places. Thanks in advance for any support and advice.

Thanks Tirena.

Hi Tirena, thanks for your comments. Yes, we checked out with my husbands company and they will complete everything for me. What I am not sure of is timing. If I manage to secure a job, do I have to get my sponsorship prior to starting or can it be in progress while I'm working.?

Hello, Pamy1967. Did you manage to find out what your husband needs to do in order to sponsor you? When do you head out to Dubai? I'm afraid I don't know anything about agencies. But I can certainly help with info on sponsoring.
