Looking for Senior IT position in Qatar

Hi
I am a Senior IT professional from India having 12 years of experience in IT industry in roles like Senior Project Manager, IT Division Head/ Software R&D Centre Head etc in India and USA. Currently I am heading a similar role in India. Now I am looking for a suitable opening in Qatar.
For past 6-8 months I have been sending my CV to some of the recruiters and companies in Qatar. So far no responses.
Kindly advise me the following:
Qatar companies/recruiters looking for people only locally available?
How can somebody from outside Qatar can get placement there?
Can somebody give me web links of some recruiters or good IT companies there?
Any advises to get placement there?
Thanks in advance

Appreciate some feedback on my previous post..
Can somebody shed some more light on my query mentioned above more sepcifically on the following too.
Do I need to be in Qatar for getting a job in IT position?
If a company call for an interview would they reimburse the travel expenses for those who come from outside country? Also will the company arrange for the visa if they short list the candidate and ask to come for interview
How can somebody from outside Qatar can get placement there? I already registered with many of the popular web sites like bayt, monster gulf, naukri gulf, timejob, clarendon parker, jobsindubai etc
Can somebody give me web links of some recruiters or good IT companies there?
I am registered with bayt, monster gulf, naukri gulf, timejob, clarendon parker, jobsindubai etc etc for past 6-8 months. But no response. I think majority of the post in these expect canidates locally. Kindly advise.
Registered with Reed only 2 weeks back.

Mohammad,
I'm working at Mannai Corp,COS ( Computer office systems ). We are the biggest software industrial here in Qatar. so I think you should send your cv from the official website. here is the link

Good Luck,

EUROGIRL to which country are you recruiting for?? or are we talking local jobs?
I'm coming over in 3 weeks and I'll get jobs for all of you:) seriousle go to www.reedjobs.com and that choose Qatar flag..
Does your offer apply to only those in Qatar or is it open to people in other countries.
Just Curious.
Keep looking for openings in the Local (Indian) newpapers. Most of the big companies in Qatar advertise and hire a lot from India. So its just a matter of waiting for the right AD. Aprt from that you can post your resume on jobsites like www.bayt.com or monstergulf or naukarigulf.......even timesjobs.com has a section for EMEA jobs....
gud luck.
Thanks Khan for sharing your information. Some ERP opening it seems in QP site. Good luck on your job search.
I hope somebody will shed more light on my queries.
Thanks

Thanks for your quick response with QP site.
I checked the QP site, but nothing suitable for my experience.
Hi Mohammed,
Same case with me too. I am also facing a very similar probs like yours, no encouraging replies from anyone in Qatar for IT Position. I am Singapore, currently serving as IT Manager for retail and distribution industry providing consulting and in house support for erp applications, business intelligence tools, managing their IT Infrastructure and I am in this industry from past 13 yrs and hold strong knowledge of erp (functional & technical domain) but NO GOOD LUCK MATE.
I wish you all the best.
Regards
Khan
