A little advice?
By new fatima •
hi all,
I have recently been made an offer to work in Qatar. i am being offered 9,750 as basic salary, 4,000 as accommodation and 1,200 for transport. i am single but will need to support my mum. i only have one year experience. is this a fair offer? would i be able to survive, save and support my mum?
another question, if i want to ask for more money, how do i do this with my future employer in a diplomatic way?
Ok, I will do that. I dont think i would want to leave the country anyway, unless on my annual leave. i wouldnt want to change employers either... so thanks a bunch to you all!!!!!! :)

take the offer. You have just one year of experience. Once you settle down you can slowly ask them for a raise.
Non Objection Certificate. You can't change jobs here without that. You are bonded to company as a slave forever. Even you can not go out of this country without your Employer's approval.
Think twice about all the angles :(
im sorry, im not really getting this.... so i should discuss it with them now or later... should i sign now and leave the issues of money for later? but they're not gonna change my salary!! anyway, no stresses. thank you everyone for your help... will just sign i suppose.

NOC - No Objection Certificate
NOC is Notice of Change which can related to your contract agreement.
Everybody is right and Everybody is wrong, its depend where you stand
what is NOC??! after contract period, what do you mean?
"eat, drink and be merry"
Personally I think What you are getting is good. But it is up to you :) I rather discuss with them an agreement for My NOC after the contract period. that is the most sensible thing to do:)
no they didnt contact me:( its ok, coz i am really happy with the company who have decidedto take me but the issue is the MONEY!!! its all about the money! im reading a few other threads and im concluding that 4000 for accommodation is not enough... i just dont know how to tell them, will i be rude?

So did they contact you. I know they hired a just passed out British guy. I am in the constrution so I can not run a school for fresh grads.
i have already applied there, but thanks charansoi... what do you mean one year experience is no good for you? what exactly are you looking for?

Send your C.V. to URS Qatar. they are one the few Enviornmental Co. here
Thanks monica.... any suggestions on how i go about asking for more money before signing?

I'm an environmental scientist.... so its apositionwith the company as a scientist. as i sed, i only have one year experience?
"eat, drink and be merry"
Anyone with 1 year experience no good for me :(
QAR 4,000 for accomodation is not enough if you want to rent an appartment.
Probably you have to put QAR 3000 from your pocket for renting.
It means that you will only have QAR 6750 for food and savings. You can spend QAR 1500 a month on food, but you have to consider extra money for mobile fees, electricity, water and any other extra......
Probably you have to negotiate with your future employer to earn a better salary....
Regarding transportation, it will be better for you to buy a car. With this monthly allowance you can pay a loan for a small car.
what position they offered you??
Everybody is right and Everybody is wrong, its depend where you stand
if you dont have anther offer it seem ok
