Is it very hard to get a job in Saudi Arabia?
Saudi Arabia does have a culture of hiring a lot of expatriates from abroad, especially from the sub-continent region. Up until the early 2000s, it was fairly simple for foreigners (especially Muslims, due to the Kingdom's relatively conservative lifestyle) to apply or get references, acquire opportunities and fly in to start work. The job market has only grown since then - with various projects in Mecca/Medina (expansion in the two Holy cities) and rapid economic development happening in cities like Riyadh and Jeddah, there are more employment opportunities than ever now. However, in the past decade or so, a wave of nationalization policies have been introduced by the government in an effort to move the relatively inactive Saudi workforce (primarily living off sponsoring other businesses and foreign visas) into the job market. This has created friction for companies to easily "import" foreign nationals to work for them in Saudi Arabia. Of course, foreign hiring is still active but moving on a lot of preference will be given to Saudi national hires. To answer the question directly, it will get "easier" for Saudi nationals to find a job and "harder" for expats to capture open positions. The latter will need to really prove their worth to outscore equally talented Saudis.Is there a healthy supply of jobs in the market? Sure, there is. A brief look at advertised vacancies on Bayt.com can validate that: http://www.bayt.com/en/saudi-ara.... Will job seekers find a diverse set of opportunities? Again, the answer is yes - simply check out the assortment of Saudi-based companies looking to recruit: http://www.bayt.com/en/saudi-ara.... [Disclosure: I work for Bayt]
What jobs can I get in Saudi Arabia?
Roger Grainger makes good points. How about becoming an English instructor to Saudis, an Arabic teacher to English speaking workers in KSA, an interpreter, hotel management, and banking perhaps.Make inquiries with your government and see whats available. You may want to spend a year or more abroad studying and speaking English fluently to perfect your skill. Why not pick up another language while you are at it?People that can speak several languages are often considered for UN positions, or government positions abroad. Think about it and good luck.

What are the most in demand jobs/degrees in Saudi Arabia and Dubai? I want to work/live there. Yes, I'm fully aware of all the stereotypes you must have.
Many skills are in demand in both countries.According to me it is easy for a software professional to find a job. However, the market it tight and you have to be excellent and have skills which are rare.If you are a fresh grad . Its almost impossible to find a job unless you have right contacts.Better try for some other country which will give you citizenship while you are young.Do remember that Salaries in saudi are based on your nationality. Many Asian people first went to canada obtained a citizenship then came to saudi and are earning almost thrice than other Asians.

They are banks that are still providing jobs to expatriates.Keep in touch! Thanks!
Saudi Arabia Job: How much do I need to live easily with my Wife and me.?
If accommodation, medical & transport are free then you're OK. I am sorry i can't tell you how much you need, it depends on your life style. But if your salary is more than SR13,000 then I am sure you can save more than 1000USD a month. Dammam is cheaper than Dubai, more civilized than Delhi & kenya. Dubai is more modern therefore its more expensive. But on the other hand, Kingdom of Bahrain is only half hour drive from Dammam. Its similar to Dubai but much less expensive. So you can spend the weekends there like lotta locals and foreigners. Cable TV here r paid yearly. You can get a full package to all American channels for less than 300USD a year. And if you go with a dish, then you only pay once for the installation, around 80USD. Good luck
