To be honest, the first day my husband came to Qatar he was quite put off by the HR. So much so, that he decided to stay up late and have a chat with another english chap working as a freelance engineer (making bucket loads.)
The next day he woke up late while everyone downstairs was waiting for him because he had no intention of working for Qatar petroleum. And then he met the guy who was running his proposed department and was absolutely amazed. He thought to himself that he could work for this kind of quality and felt more comfortable with Him being English.
My husband did say that HR completely put him off of the job though and that the low ball salary they offered is an insult. The problem is that HR just go by numbers (years of experience) and the grading system is not geared to high fliers.
