Yes, you can pursue a master's degree after completing your bachelor's - there is no requirement to join a job immediately in either Germany or the UAE.

- Germany: You can apply directly for a master's program after your bachelor's. Admission usually requires a recognized bachelor's degree and proof of language proficiency. After graduation, Germany typically offers an 18-month post-study work visa (job-seeker permit) to search for employment in your field - subject to change.
- UAE: You can also apply for a master's program right after your bachelor's. Admission requirements vary by university. Post-study, the UAE does not offer an automatic post-study work visa; you would need to secure a job or apply for a job-seeker visa to stay longer - subject to change.
