In this current climate, those of us hoping to change jobs, or looking for that next executive career move, might well be finding the ‘phone pretty quiet, and the emails a little less forthcoming.

What is one to do then when you really do want, nay, NEED a new role and time is not your friend?

Well, I guess it’s time to get creative with that CV. Positions that at one time were quite literally being offered into peoples hands, might just require a little bit of work.

But there are more seekers than posts these days, and you’ll want to stand out from the rest of the executive herd.

You can read about some rather extreme examples of ‘Creative Networking’.

Could any of these tactics work in securing the next move here in Dubai or the Middle East region?

The area has enjoyed a real ‘boom’ time for all over the last few years. These were times when people were literally walking of a plane and straight into a job. The current economic situation means that whilst we may be looking at a leaner and meaner job market, there are still positions aplenty for those of you with the right experience and outlook.

Sorting the ‘wheat from the chaff’ is no bad thing for business. In such an immature market, the most originality you have to show could be as simple as having the right CV, showing up at the right time, and with the right attitude. Believe us, all of these attributes have been quite a novelty in the past.

The biggest key to gaining your next executive career move within Dubai and the Gulf region, is of course, by joining forces with BurjExecutives.Com .

Working with top recruiters and high calibre candidates and management professionals could be all the networking you need!
