      Donno about UAE, but i had a job with UAC a while back. If UAE is anything like those guys, I wouldn't recommend it. They rushed some prototype code into production, and things just got ugly... Took ages to debug it all.

          UAE: United Arab Emirates?? A liberal middle-eastern country.. and a huge market for (business) software developers. Companies there rely mostly on Asian competences (esp. India + Pakistan). There's big money involved there.. but it's recommended to check out well before accepting the offer.

            If they ask you to surrender your passport while you are there, then dont join them. Experience shows, they will exploit u.

                I just got in to colege(and I hate it but that's besides the point) and I have a guy in my class wo is from Libia and he has already been to college there(he is 27 years old) and now he is going to do 6 more years of college in my country just because the degree he will get from ere will be recognized by a firm in the united arab emirates.However when I spoke more with him he also confessed that his father is already the head there and I asked him(naturally) if he would still go through all this trouble just to get a job there if this wasn't the case and he said that if this wasn't the case nobody would wait for him to finish college so they can hire him, because he isn't that important but if they would have accepted such a deal he would have gone throght the trouble to get a job there because it's a dreamland for coders.However he later told me that the next coder paradise will be in Sudan because there are a lot of skilled chaep coders coming from there and that this country will replace india and pakistan as the source of outsourced code and probably many coders will move there in the future. He said that if his father wouldn't have handed him this opportunity he would have gone to Sudan to be there before it fills up with coders from all over and he is no longer special but hey if he lies to me I lie to you, ok? don't blame me if neither the uae or sudan are any good. I am still trying to find work in romania as a coder. if anyone can help I won't say no peace
