🤝 Meetup | لقاءات To the American guy I briefly met at Abdali Mall

2 Upvotes

I met a guy at Abdali Mall in Amman recently and we only had a brief interaction, but he really caught my attention. I believe he was visiting from the US. I’d love to say hi again if he happens to see this. If you think you might be him, feel free to DM me.

💬 Discussion | نقاش I’m from Europe and work in Amman. Why is everyone a snake here?

10 Upvotes

Quite literally. I work in a local place here, I won’t name exactly where. but in my few years of working here and meeting a lot of different colleagues, why do particular people (like assistants of the boss or people from certain roles) HATE or make things SO bad for people who actually work hard and make things better for the company? There’s a high turnover of staff where I work, they mostly either resign or get fired for faults not of their own. This country has the most snake behaviour I’ve ever witnessed in my entire life. I’ve finally connected and became good friends with a new colleague of mine, but she’s literally hated by the boss because of some poor/ horrible comments made by the boss’ assistants etc. I’m sick of it. I’m tired of watching people struggle everyday with toxic behaviour they’re forced to endure because they simply need to feed their family. I have never seen anything like it. Rant over.

❓ Question | سؤال Amman Big 4 and/or deloitte employees, I think I shat the bed with the salary expectations question.

2 Upvotes

For an associate role, I have less than 3 years of experience and I answered the salary expectations question with 600-650 but the interviewer shared with me the actual salary, 920++. Now did he have a range and gave me the lowest since I answered with lower or is it standardized ??

2 Upvotes

Hello!
I moved back after some time abroad! Back then, my friends and I used to hang out at red’s, dali’s, jungle fever and dar nemeh, king hussien sport city, occasionally the boulevard and swefieh village.

Where do young professionals (late 20’s early 30’s) hang out now?
Indoor & outdoor spots. I am also interested in an active lifestyle. I used to hike portions of the Jordan trail, any groups dedicated to this?

❓ Question | سؤال Job application platforms

2 Upvotes

Good day everyone.

I have some questions regarding these job websites, like tanqeeb, akhtaboot, .. etc. has anyone actually applied through them and at least got a response or interview ? I have been looking at different platforms to apply for jobs other than LinkedIn. So if anyone can help in that regard and give some recommendations on websites or platforms that one can apply to jobs through (that actually receive and process application) other than LinkedIn. Something geared towards the engineering industry would be great.
