Salary and job prospects for a biochemistry Bsc degree

Hello there,
I'm a British university student in London studying biochemistry.
I intend to go to Qatar and work there after I graduate since I have become very fond of the country, as well as the added bonus of my relatives living there.
I'm not really sure of what jobs I can get- though I've been thinking of going into clinical biochemistry and maybe become a consultant- but wanted to know how would I achieve that?
Also what would a typical monthly salary be for me with the degree I have and what benefits would I also get?

Thank you In advance for your replies

Hi, I have a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and I'm currently living in Doha. For you to work here you need to get a license from the Supreme Council of Health. And to get a license you need 1 year of working experience. I thought of getting a master's degree but they only have in 1 university. You can have a master's if you want to study at Qatar university, in Biomedical Science college. Good luck.

First you need to get at least a year or two of work experience, companies here seldom hire newly graduate. Only Qataris are accepted right after graduation. However you can still try send your CV with the companies you wish to apply. Or maybe your relatives can sort that out. Just wondering, why work here where you can get a better high paying job in UK?
