Working in the Gulf: an English CV (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar)
In the Gulf states the standard is an English CV in an international format. We prepare exactly that.
The UAE (Dubai), Saudi Arabia and Qatar mean high pay and an international environment. Here employers almost always ask for a CV in English in an international style.
