i totally agree with the comments given..good idea from orang kedah..
the offer came to me unexpectedly, i was just surfing the net and found out the vacancy, apllied and they responded quickly..they shortlisted me and called for interview..
after the interview in malaysia, initially they offered GBP 1000, i did not say yes or no..i asked for better offer and waiting for their respond..by that time, i came across qatarliving.com..
post my comment and received excellent feedback from the members of QL..helped me alot..
thanks..
and to orang kedah,
yes, i might try Qp or RagGas in future..i guess currently no opening is available..
thanks again..
have a nice day..
The package seems totally unattractive. You will be much better off in Malaysia. With your qualifications, why not try QP or RagGas?
anybody out there working in Pearl GTL, a little help please..salary for trainer..
ooooo..ok..i will discuss further with them..and, is the x3 salary that your mentioned is within the labor law or was it your professional suggestion?..appreciate it..thanks
since its a limited contract job, it must be multiplied by three atleast..

yes dweller,,your have a point there..the salary sounds too low for me..that why i started to surf the web, looking for info..and i found qatarliving.com..thanks
6 months contract renewable..i also do not understand why? waiting for their fedback..
You need to consider the following-:
1. It is only a 6 month contract therefore, you may after a short while have to look for another job. Depends on your current status really.
2. If the job will add to your C.V, then sure you may want to accept the short term contract, that may or may not be extended.
3. Salary is rather low for a training position as Dweller pointed out. Again, depends if you are CV building really. Also depends on your personal comparison to salaries in your native country.
4. Holidays are quite nice! Wish i had that set up!
Write down the pros and cons and then make up your mind. Salary will not make you rich though...keep that in mind.
roslanismail - Salary sounds low to me. Also, why only a 6 month contract to start with?
dweller - 8 and 2 with return tickets is just the rotation policy that company operates. Nothing to do with dodging residency permits!!!
i'm new in this forum and am so thankfull that i've found this web site.
pls. i need an advise w/ regards to the above subject for...
filipino civil eng'r w/10 yrs. of experience in actual field as...

Project Supervisor = 7 yrs.
Civil Works, Structural, Architectural. Sanitary plumbing
pls. your comments is highly appreciated.
GOD BLESS...
thanks dweller..
what would be the suitable salary range that you would suggest?
and,
thanks britexpat..
i am from southeast asia (malaysia)..
experience is importance in this ever demanding world..yes to experience
save money...equally yes
PhD might have to deffer 1 or 2 semesters..
what do both of you would suggest?
i am in a confusion..whether to accept or not? or should i negotiate first?
thanks again..
I don't know where you are from, but look at it from this perspective.
What are your main aims at the moment? Get experience, save money and complete your Phd?
Since accomodation and meals are provided and you also get three months off a year, look at how much you will save (in your own currency).
Then decide!
somewhat low although the relative lack of experience may be the reason for that.
I can't figure out why the 8 on and 2 off with return tickets is applied. Is this to avoid applying for a residence permit?
If it's contract work then definitely it's too low.
wow..thanks a lot..
the fact that you gave me, hit me like a rock was thrown to my head..
hmmm..
What you have been offered is nothing. They need to multiply that base by minimum of 3 and add the accomodation and flights. Otherwise you will regret cause once yoyu land, you might not be allowed to go out of the country and you will be stuck. They have offered you a salary for Non Degreed.
