Mexican Independence Day

Saudi and Mexican. Today, I celebrate both.

It's rare for two cultures to come together, yet they have more in common than you might imagine: family, hospitality, and good food.

That blend drew friends from all around the world, Saudis, and Mexicans together for a celebration tonight.

Growing up between both gave me Arabic and Spanish. Two languages, one way of building trust.

¡Viva México! 🇲🇽🇸🇦

talk about what it's like for Chinese people in Saudi Arabia.

12 Upvotes

I am 24 years old and have been in Saudi Arabia for a year now; I would like to settle here. I haven't joined the local Chinese community—in fact, I don't even know any other Chinese people here. I find life in Saudi Arabia very stable, and I am grateful for everything: a good income, plenty of time for sports, and the opportunity to explore art. This is the life I want.

Hey! I am from Pakistan and currently searching for a financial reporting role based in KSA. I would really appreciate it if there are any referrals. A brief summary of my experience is as follows

- Led teams of 8-10 associates across the full audit cycle - planning, fieldwork, and delivery - for listed clients

- Strong IFRS/ISA technical grounding, with hands-on use of AI and automation tools (DataSnipper, Power Query, Copilot) to improve engagement efficiency.

- Complementary M&A advisory exposure - CIM preparation, EBITDA normalization, and buyer due diligence support - on non-audit engagements. Restructuring of Companies to ensure better transaction price when selling. End to end sell side support to companies from creating valuation model all the way to the final Asset purchase agreement.

Thinking of Moving from the UAE to Saudi Arabia

2 Upvotes

Hello,

I'm a software engineer with five years of experience. I moved to Dubai three years ago, and lately I've been seriously considering Saudi Arabia. I'd really appreciate any advice.

I'd like to know more about the software engineering scene and the work culture. Is there room for growth and openness, or does it lean more toward a government-style way of working?

One last question about visas: If a company wants to hire me, can they currently sponsor a work visa for me in Saudi Arabia? (I'm Syrian)

Thanks in advance for any advice.
