Looking to move to Dubai

6 years ago
Hi, I am an American lawyer with an MBA and I am considering moving to Dubai. I have a few questions and would appreciate advice on life in Dubai.
1. What is the best way to find a job in Dubai? I am on Linkedln and Indeed. Any other recommendations.
2. Is it better to ship my vehicle or buy one there? I have a Mercedes ML350. Is it really expensive to service in Dubai?
3. How does registering and insuring my vehicle work? Is it expensive?
4. What area of Dubai is best to live in?
5. Is it better to rent a furnished apartment in a hotel or somewhere else.
6. Are there expats meet ups. How do I get to know other expats.
7. What is it like to date in Dubai. I am a single female, no kids.
8. Is it best to work in a corporation or law firm?
9. What is health care like in Dubai?
10. Anything else you think I should know?

Thanks,
Wendy
