Pharmacist in united arab emirates making 250k/year

Anyone have any other info?

Someone from my class whos from that area is doing that. You dont even need to know english.

Dont know much else
 
I haven't heard about UAE, but in Alaska you can make 250k with a 100k sign on bonus.
 
I interviewed with a girl from Dubai. She was telling us how pharmacists in UAE are not at all like how they are in America and how they don't have nearly the important responsibilities and knowledge as they do here. I would doubt that salary is true. However, I don't know much about international pharmacists. Where did you hear that?

1 United Arab Emirates dirham = 0.272264 U.S. dollars

You never specified if it was 250k dollars, just said 250k of something, so with that currency conversion it would be about $68k.

Before making these claims, please provide proof. I hate rumors like this.

If they paid that much obviously it would be worth it to d a 7 on 7 off schedule in alaska and leave after working. there is absolutely NO WAY they pay that much.

same with dubai. pharmacists are only paid high in the USA. These figures are all bull****.

I agree, there are a lot of rumors in Alaska.In our college, someone spread the rumor of making a million with a 3 year contract in Alaska!!!

hate these stupid rumors by amateurs
 
UAE Board of Pharmacy requires fluency in Arabic and English in case anyone thinking of the 250k whatever job.

Actually that is not a rumor at all. I personally know a girl who graduated from Mercer two years ago who I previously worked with and she received a $30,000 signing bonus and is making about $750,000 for signing a three year contract. Not exactly a million but pretty damn good. This is not an every day thing but these types of jobs do pop up ever so often.
