Hello. I'm from the Philippines, I have an offer as an Audio Video Design Engineer from a leading Audio Visual System provider in Doha. My salary would be QR 7,000(QR 4,000 - Basic Salary, QR 3,000 - Allowances, transpo - provided, 30 days paid leave, free airline tickets). Is it enough for me to just live and work in Qatar and still have savings? Appreciate any advise.

i am sorry friend, but the pay scale is very low.

you cant find a decent accomodation for 4000qrs, a 2bed flat.

are you coming with family, you need to check out all the factors like family, expenses,before you come here.

even if you are coming here single, you need to check out the expenses carefully, maybe other philipino nationals can help you out on this.
