Welcome to GulfSpecific.com. I built this website to provide free answers to questions about living and working in the Arabian Gulf and the financial benefits it can bring. Please feel free to send me an email and I will answer it. If I don't know the answer, I will say so.
I also write brief articles about searching for work and working in various Gulf countries which I publish on this website. They answer questions most frequently asked by future expats and their families. I charge a nominal fee for these articles to help me offset the cost of running this website. If you find the information I provide useful, please feel free to purchase an article that interests you.
- So how do you build up your wealth tax-free in the Arabian Gulf?
- How much money can you make tax-free in Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi or Kuwait?
- How do you find a tax-free job in Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, Kuwait and elsewhere in the Gulf?
- How do you successfully negotiate your tax-free salary and expat benefits package?
- What should you watch out for when signing a job contract in Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi or Kuwait?
If you have been looking for specific answers to the questions above, you have come to the right place. That might seem a bit odd for a welcome, but I think it it's appropriate. By coming to this website you have taken a giant step toward securing lucrative, tax-free employment in the Arabian Gulf, with all the money, satisfaction and financial freedom that achievement brings.
You have shown that you are a person of action and are prepared to put time and effort into your job search which, at the very least, will give you great satisfaction and, at best can make you and your family financially independent.
Working in a foreign country may sound a bit scary at the beginning, especially if you have never lived and worked abroad. But not to worry, I'll be guiding you every step of the way, sharing with you simple yet powerful techniques which anyone can learn and apply.
Who am I to tell you this, I hear you ask. My name is Konstantin Jvakine. I am a Canadian expatriate who had permanently relocated to the Gulf back in January 2001. I am employed in the oil industry and through my work have gained exposure to living and working in each of the Gulf countries.
As I mentioned above I provide free answers and publish articles that offer up-to-date information on salaries and give specific advice on how to find a job in the Arabian Gulf countries in the oil and gas industry, construction, information technology, high finance and ESL/EFL Education in UAE (Dubai, Abu Dhabi), Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar and Oman.
I extensively cover the ever important cultural challenges of a job search in the Gulf, especially when it comes to job interviews with Arab employers. I specifically prepare you for sensitive questions that you may never expect to be asked during a job interview.
And if you are interested in a topic not covered by the articles presently published on my website, please send me an email with your request!
As a final note, financial freedom is within your reach whether you believe it or not. And to achieve it, you don't have to gamble away your life savings by trying to beat professional fund managers in the stock market. There are other ways to accumulate substantial tax-free savings. Working in the Gulf is one of them.
