Where do you live now?

[skystar]

i live in Saudi Arabia

[Tnekster]

Are you a Saudi Arabian citizen?

[RobertB]

Not to be picky, but you will want to use proper capitalization... even in an informal setting like this. You never know who might be reading. However, your English grammar is excellent!

[skystar]

Yes. I am a Saudi citizen !!

don't worry i am not a terrorist, i don't hate Americans, i don't hate bosh, i do support the war on Iraq.

and i will be happy to answer any question from anyone.

Thanks RobertB to your advice :)

That would automatically disqualify you from many software engineering jobs here in DFW because so many employers are defense contractors and you would not be able to obtain a security clearance as a foreign national.

Maybe you should try your university's placement office. Many recent graduates from colleges here in Texas with CS degrees have a hard enough time finding work in DFW in their field. Heck, even people with 10-20-25 years of experience can't find meaningful employment in software/electrical engineering etc. The recent grads are competing for entry level positions against people who have decades of work experience.

Like all things in Dallas, it's not what you know, it's who you know. Networking is the key.

Do you have a visa?

[skystar]

hmmmm, I don't know what to say !!

the main reason to travel to the states and to Dallas specifically is to get hair removal using electrolysis by Electrology2000 Clinic. my case is extremely bad and the hair covers my whole face and neck from all sides. and after months of searching on the net I found that this is the best place to go for

what about getting a job in another city/state ?? is it the same ??


thanks.

[skystar]

No i don't have a visa right now.
I want to make sure that every thing will work as i want first.

What do they tell you about getting a visa over there? I have friends from Kuwait City, one is here and one wants to be here but has a very difficult time getting a visa.

^This is such BS--this guy doesn't live in Saudi--he is full of shit.

[skystar]

I didn't try to get it yet.
I don't think I will have a problem getting it.

Nowadays many Saudis can get free scholarship from the government to study in the U.S. universities.

My brother got it, but he probably will not travel because he got a very good job recently.

Sorry to hear this !!!


What is your problem ?? Why you don't believe I am a Saudi??
Do you want proofs?? I am ready. Just ask.

Enjoy your bowl season.

Please let our discussion be within the subject.

I tried [www.dallasjobs.com] and there is a lot of jobs.
and I even tried [www.roommateclick.com] to find a roommate to live with and there is a lot.

It is not necessary for me to work in my field; the most important thing is to be able to cover the cost of living beside my treatments.

I came to this forum to have direct discussion with people form Dallas and to get their opinions.

[RobertB]

Don't forget to check out http://dallas.craigslist.com/ for both jobs and apartments and/or roommates. Of course, if you're not concerned about working in your field, you may consider http://neworleans.craigslist.org/ as well -- nice place, a bit soggy, though.

Thanks alot RobertB :)
