Open for Content/Comms Roles | 24F | 2.5YoE
Hi everyone. This is my second time posting this post as I am really helpless and out of work for 8 months now.
I am a 24F, born and raised in the UAE with 2.5YoE in copy/content/editorial and social media, and I worked for an agency in India before coming to the UAE to stay with my family and look for active openings. Initially, everyone said the market is low due to Ramadan, then the war, and now they say hiring isn't active. I have been trying to apply for mid-level roles since January this year, to roles in Media & Comms and I already know being an Indian, the racial profiling is high so my chances are already low and on top of that I get reality checks saying I am STILL a fresher in UAE so I am now considering even entry-level roles or internships as long as it pays.
I understand staying at home means I don't have to contribute to the rent, groceries, etc but both my brother and I are looking for roles, and only my dad works, so I would really love to lessen the burden for him by taking up at least my & my bro's small expenses.
Anyone who has any tips or legit leads to in-house brands or agencies, kindly comment or DM. If I am getting anything wrong in the Media & Comms industry too in Dubai, please let me know.
