People who get paid the most seem to work the least

It seems that the CEO’s, Directors, and board members of the corporate world get paid very handsomely; able to afford fancy cars and private school fees, but they don’t seem to do much work other than make a few decisions from time to time. Maybe it’s the reward for what they have done in the past or maybe it’s a bit of luck but the lions share of work seems to be done at the lower end of the ladder and it really does not seem fair.

I wouldn’t say no to a position like that in the future myself though so I guess it’s just a fact of life that we all need to strive for the top…

A good way to get your Resume up to scratch

I was thinking the other day that there are not too many people (companies / websites and so on) offering sound CV advice. Yes there are many pages of information on CV writing etc on recruitment websites in the UAE amongst others but correct me if I am wrong – does any of the info actually help you at the end of the day or does it make you more anxious and clueless?

From my experience there are no hard and fast rules about the content and length of a CV; just creating it in the best possible form including as much concise information about YOU that will help sell YOU to the recruiting manager. There comes a time when you have to stop asking peoples opinions and just go for it using the best possible version of your curriculum vitae that you have. It is good though to get your CV checked by a friend / family member as well as a business professional, like a colleague (but only if people know you are moving on! ;-)) or a business professional contact that you might have through one form or another.

You may disagree with the above and also, I am fully aware that I have not told you how to write your CV either so you maybe wondering why you are reading this??

Well I will tell you why. RecruitGulf.com offers a great service to jobseekers in the Gulf. CLICK HERE to get excellent Resume advice.

Job cuts in the property business in Dubai

It seems that the once impregnable property giant that is Dubai is even feeling the heat of the global economic downturn. Gulf News reports:

The DAMAC Group has announced that it has undertaken a review of global staffing levels in response to the continuing current global slowdown.
The organisation, has announced that 200 jobs will be retrenched in total or about 2.5 per cent of global staff levels.

OK, OK, this does not affect workers in the Gulf directly it seems, so we should not panic, as this is really just precautionary as the company has to be sensible operating as an international business. The job cuts are seemingly going to be made on its enterprises abroad.

However, we should take note that if the rest of the world continues on this downturn there will have to begin a pull on resources in Dubai and the Gulf.

Bahrain MPs do not deserve such a huge retirement package

We all want a good retirement to be comfortable, but why should MPs in Bahrain particularly benefit from an extended scheme to see them receive a large payout? For one what have they contributed that merits their reward?

Workers, no matter what industry they are in deserve a good pension to live a comfortable retirement. This is unfortunately not always possible, however but if you have contributed a lot in your field and also been sensible at putting money away you should be entitled to a good pension and benefits.

MPs should not be granted any exemptions to this. They should have to contribute a worthy amount too, to receive benefits.
