Agree with u on the doctors thingy, my mother works there and earns abt 12k riyals as well.
Btw what abt payroll of ACCAs in Saudi? Any ideas? becuase my mom works there, and its a great place, i would love to work there :| (btw I'm doing my O levels now, last 6 months, plan on doing A levels and then ACCA ( i love accounts
)
8-9k starting with nill experience and 13-16k with 2-3 years of experience. Goes for UAE as well. However due to ecnomic problems its easier to find job in Saudi then in Bahrain or Dubai. Saudi is actually witnessing economic boom specially in Jeddah and Riyadh. Lots of jobs there.
I'm much happier studying engineering because it's something I like, as opposed to accountancy/medical/etc. I really don't give a shit about money.
So FU, I guess.
All those people studying engineering please don't get upset. I have just stated the fact and what i have seen. I have worked in dubai, bahrain and saudi which makes most of the gulf in past 3 years. You people i guess have not even left your university yet. So please don't get upset because aaj ya jkal you have to face the reality.
Its simply give and take. You guys chose a low paying field out of passion and interest. Good enough you are satisfied. Laikin jab new Audi ya BMW purchase karni hogi toh shayed passion thanda par jayega aap logon ka.
I have simply stated what i have seen. App log jab audi khareeney k qabil hoge tab apki jawani zaya ho chuki hogi. :lol: :lol:
For me its both about passion and money. My dad wanted to be to do something in medical but i chose this field on my own because i liked it and also it was high paying with lots of opportunities. I was admitted ot Shiekh Zayed Uni in UAE for MBBA. I did my A level with medical and biology. I left UAE (Lived there for 20years) and came to Pakistan to peruse my career and not to put extra burden on my dad.
At 24 i have become self sufficient. The last time i took pocket money from my dad was 7 years back. During my ACCA studies i was giving tutions to Inter and B.com and earning my own money. Now during articles im being paid 12k and i maintain my own car and daily expenses. Everything i buy from my rig to my clothes to shoes is my own money. And as my articles is about to end 50k job offers are waiting for me. This is how i wanted to see myself. I did not want to be a cripple living on my dad's money. This very field has allowed me to do so. My own cousins who are even elder than me are still doing their degrees in unis and living on packet money. I have started my next international qualification which will cost me around 1.5lac rs and i will pay it from my own pocket. the money i saved during my mid east trip. This is how i planned to live my life when i was 18. Now my the time i am 30 i see myself as manager in finance or audit department of a prestegious company. I am working hard for it by going for my next qualification and not getting seduced by job offers during my training period. Still sticking to 12k till 2011 and a big jump tp UAE after that.
The reason to tell you guys all this is to make all those people at their 18 realize the importance of hard work and planning. Making the right decision is they key to good life.
So kindly dont get upset. While being in the same age group i have seen more life and interacted with more people so i talk from experience. Good bye.
