Common questions
Where do the numbers come from?
A hand-maintained table drawn from the 2025-2026 Robert Half, Michael Page, and Hays UAE salary guides, plus adjustments based on the Dubinity audience. If your specific role isn't in the table, the AI reasons from adjacent bands and flags the estimate as approximate.
Does it factor in housing / schooling / visa costs?
The salary band itself doesn't - but you can ask the AI 'what's my effective take-home?' and it will factor in typical rent, DEWA, schooling, and visa fees.
How often are the salary bands updated?
Annually, timed to the release of the major recruiter salary guides in Q1.
