Ur totally right...i believe that its not just happening in Qatar coz it happened to me too. Im currently working in UAE as Project Coordinator/Secretary but if you look at my Visa & Work Permit im a Computer Programmer.
When you come to a point that you become desperate to get a job...you dont really care about the position anymore, whats important is getting paid coz were living in a foreign country & every move we make costs too much.

BTW, guys send to me the email address of your HR for any computer related positions. Thanks so much!
