Confused about my career direction... Flutter dev moving to Dubai, need guidance from seniors
Hey everyone, I really need some honest guidance from people with more experience than me.
I have 1 year of experience as a Flutter developer. I was working at a company in Pakistan but had to leave because my family is in Dubai and I'm moving there in the next couple of weeks. I didn't renew my contract because of this.
Now I'm sitting here trying to figure out what to actually do to get a job in Dubai and I'm honestly lost.
Here's what's been happening:
A senior of mine told me to apply for ML internships in Dubai and start preparing for ML interviews. I applied, prepared for weeks, got no reply, and now I feel like I wasted that time.
I've also started learning frontend web development on the side thinking it would help my chances.
But now I feel like I'm doing too many things at once and none of them properly.
My core question is: should I continue with Flutter, switch my stack entirely, or do something else?
I don't know if Flutter is even in demand in Dubai at my experience level. I don't know if 1 year is enough to compete there. I don't know if web dev was a smart move or just panic learning.
If any seniors or experienced devs here have been in a similar situation or know the Dubai market, please guide me. What would you do in my position? What's the most practical path to actually getting hired?
I just want to stop second guessing and move in one clear direction.
