Salary Structure for expat working in Ashgha

I have some questions. I will soon be going to Doha for interview.

1. Any ideas about Salary structure for Expat Senior Process Engineer working under Public Works Authority (Ashghal)?

2. Normally what's the contract period - 2 yrs or 3 yrs? Is it extendable?

3. People say that Govt. job like this doesn't provide Education allowance for the kids.

4. What is this "Furniture Allowance"? Does Ashghal offer this? HOw does this work? Does this mean that they give you lump sum money to bring your stuff to Qatar by movers?

It seems Ashghal does provide:

•Housing allowance
•Transport allowance
•Health Insurance
•Generous annual leave with paid airfares to country of origin

Thanks. << QL ROCKS>>

Sorry, no idea what a senior process engineer might make in Doha but it should be more than you are making in Canada plus housing, transportation, insurance and, if you have kids, definitely full education expenses. You are usually given housing but if not you will need 12-20,000 QR/mo for housing for you and your family. Usually you are given a one-time furniture buying allowance and/or shipping costs for a certain weight.
