Banking in UAE
Hey, I haven't posted in a while but I need some advice.
I have an interview coming up with a bank (think Citi, Barclays, BNP, HSBC or similar) for an Investment Banking Off-Cycle role - I assume with chances of securing a full time role - with them at their Dubai offices, and I wanted to know if any of you have any experience either interiewing or working over there.
Any comments or tips regarding sectors, cultural differences or working environment would be helpful!
Thanks!

Hi, I'm just curious, what is it actually like to work in IBD in the United Arabic Emirates? How big is the IBD sector there?

sry, im not a native speaker, I translated it literally. would love to see u talking in my language
I speak 7 languages -- never attempted to write the full name of a country like the UAE out... and when I did, I did it right so as not to impress upon anyone that I am clueless.
good for you.
w00p yep isn't it?
no /\
You know a thread is good when the majority of responses are completely unrelated to the OP's question.

Conversion rate of interns to full-time positions are pretty high in Dubai.
What about applying to FT positions at say a HSBC/Barclays/Citi thru a contact? Have 2 previous IB internships (1 Wells Fargo/Nomura/Mizuho, and 1 boutique in Dubai), I'm from India.
