Help required in job seeking

Your start up company collapse ?? Any way you have already had clients and experience, you can build it again later as the company is still exist legally. I bet your start up companies is in financial service right ?

Yes I was providing financial services for startups in USA, Canada, UK and other countries. My role was to prepare business plans, financial modeling, budgeting and marketing strategies for startups looking for seed and pre seed level investments from banks and venture capitalists or crowed funding. But now no one is investing in start-ups so I am jobless. Every one was just busy buying gold only.

While you search for a job, if you have car or bike, start driving Uber, otherwise if you have a small saving then start gathering information on starting a business which you can do side by side. If you go on youtube, you will find videos which give business ideas from 10k to 1000k Budget. You should get ideas, not necessarily the whole plan as they many not be practical or may not suit you.

These are tough times, people are losing jobs as headcounts are being reduced. In my circle, many friends have lost their jobs also except those in Govt or Military. I hope you get a job soon inshAllah but in the meantime divert your mind by finding a (side) business which brings out your best qualities, polishes them and also makes you money. If i were you, my first choice would be food business be it catering or any other decent setup.

Good luck.

i heard amazon delivery is good job

Hi,
I am financial analyst, I lost my earnings to Covid19 which was my only source of income. Being father of two there is very huge financial pressure on me now. I do realize that this might not be the right place, but I have no choice. Being from simple family having no luxury references to get one as well as. So any help would be greatly admired. Thank you

What about opening a tuition centre for accountancy and finance students? These are really tough times and I have seen so many people who lost their jobs in Gulf too. I am not advising anyone to come to spend money and go to GCC for job hunting. You can do it next year.

But I assume you have a good educational background (Financial Analysts are highly educated), try to open a tuition center where you can gather other people like you and start giving help to students of Intermediate/ O/ A Levels and CFA/ ACCA/ PIPFA etc. In the meantime, if you haven't already completed your CFA, try doing that too. CFA will give you a huge edge over others when this gloomy period ends. The rents are low nowadays and you can get a good place at cheaper rates for your centre.

Since you have a family to support, you can drive uber/ careem too if you are not sure about opening a tuition center. Someone who has money to spend on tickets and accomodation while searching for jobs in Gulf should spend it on buying a car to get instant returns. This will keep your boat floating in these tough times.

Believe me, you aren't alone. All over the world, people are struggling hard.

I am pretty much active on almost every potential site like LinkedIn and indeed etc

You need to talk to people face to face and not through computers. If something doesn't work you don't keep doing it. Change your way/style/technique/approach/content etc etc. May Allah open doors for you.

This year has been just so sad, the lower middle class groups who survive on business are so severely effected by the economic shock of Corona, I can realize their pain, just want this to end & see things go back to normalcy. Its just depressing to see empty hotels , shops in the city with no customers, I hope they survive this.

I am not from the finance background, otherwise might have suggested you something, I have a suggestion, try to move your family to a smaller town or city for some time till you stabilize if you have any means, because you incur very little expenses in small towns or villages in our part of the world, while you can stay in the city hunt for Job. This is what people in India also doing , going back to villages where they can survive with no or little money.

Are you ACCA qualified or equivalent? Could you do tax returns and things like that for people through fiverr or an equivalent site?

I don't need any tax returns doing, but I know plenty of small businesses and self employed people in the UK do hire people to do their tax returns etc. Maybe you could setup Facebook page marketing yourself as a business and then pay for targeted ads through FB?
