You never get anything while sitting on your asses. There was a time a few years ago when you could get a job while sitting in Pakistan. Not anymore. Now, you'll have to struggle, and struggle HARD for anything in UAE.

Personally, i can tell you that if you don't have 3-4 years of 'tough' experience from Pakistan market, DO NOT even try to come to UAE. Because the life here will mow you down. However, if you are flexible, have strong dedication, work ethics, and most importantly, have a degree from a university, you will definitely find a job here. Thankfully, Bachelors is much more desired here than in Pakistan.

Another thing, following things needs to be strong ... very strong if you come to UAE.
1. Your CV - As in, you know the art of marketing yourself via your CV. (Careful choice of words, with first page with maximum details)
2. Your self - As in, best in your abilities. Highly confident english speaker, knowledgeable in your field and presentable. (Its UAE. Wear a freakin' SUIT. Even if you have to go to Washroom, WEAR A COAT).

P.S. Use a 4 point cover letter while applying for CVs. No essays plz. No one gives a shit about them.
4 Points:
- Who are you? (Tag line; e.g. Qualified Chartered Accountant, 5 Years of Experience)
- What do you have? (Degrees, Diplomas etc; e.g. B.Com graduate, ACCA Qualified)
- Why you are better than others? (Strengths only: e.g. Computerized Accounting, Auditing; Capabilities; if first timer in UAE and have International Driving License, mention it.)
- Immediately available (should be); and Visa status with Expiry Date.

Improve upon these 4 points. But plz, no essays.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    "These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

    Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
