I have seen this ad also. Unfortunately it is the reality here in DXB. The problem is we have people who are willing to work for these salaries. Which in return penalizes everyone. The problem is, if you don't accept this 5000 AED a month salary, someone else will. Why should the company offer more? Pitiful I say. I am currently on the job market and trying to squeeze 10 000 AED out of a company and finding it difficult. You pay 6500 USD to do the required course, then pay extra to do the exam and get the license. It works out to about 7000 USD for your GCAA license which is about 27 000 AED. One will have to work 6 months to cover the cost of the license with a salary of 5000 AED.
