Dear Hasnaa,

Thanks. Way excited to be there. My hobbies include reading, swimming, watching movies, things like that. Are there any other hobbies I can pick up from Maldives? I love learning languages though. Maybe I should learn Maldivian :)

Thanks.

Dear Sohan,

The cost of living in Male is quiet High as compared to India. Everything are expensive. Please bring every stuffs and necessary things from India. If the accommodation and foods are provided by company than u have to save all ur monthly salary.

Regards,
Sudeep

Hello~

As for my case, my employer was very accommodating with regards to my employment procedures.
- they shouldered my flight expenses from my country going to Male City, where my office is
- they processed my visa and other necessary documents while I was still in my home country (via a local agency) as well as when I arrived here in Male city
- As per my contract, I am entitled to an annual vacation leave of no less than one month after I have completed my contractual period of 1 year. They will also be shouldering my airfare going back to my point of origin.

Hope that helped!

Thanks angelixx, thanks for the info. Hmm so it seems to be real. I scared it my be scam.
So how long have u been working in Maldives? Which hotel you work in ? And what about the services charges?
Anything you wanna advice me for my first time abroad for work?

angelixx

I've been for 3 months already. I am based in the city so I don't really know how life goes with the people working in hotels / resorts in other islands. I hope you'll be fine when you'll come over. This is also my first time working abroad. And knowing that there aren't any malls / shopping centres / moviehouses / cafe's in the city, I brought some books along that I can read for the entire duration of my stay here.

Thank you very much angelixx. Your infomations help me alot. By the way nice meeting you. Have a nice day :)
