Exactly how difficult is it to get a job as a Western single female?
I am looking to come to Doha in September/October time of this year. I am an experienced and qualified Head Office Administrator with 7 years experience in a busy office environment, and 12 years experience within the service sector. I can provide excellent references, including that of my current employer. As I do not have any type of Visa or any form of sponsorship I am concerned that this will inhibit my chances of securing decent employment and as you can appreciate I am reluctant to come out without the security of a job and accomodation in place. Also I have heard that identities can be stolen by submitting your CV to what looks like a reputable company that is, however, far from it! Maybe I am a bit paranoid coming from the UK and knowing people that this has happened to. All advice is greatly appreciated.
Dear,
If you are UK national then no need to be worried about visa you can get 1 month visa on arrival.Yes there is accommodation problem, you will not get an independent accommodation in start coz. it will be an expensive for you, better to choose sharing accommodation, for the Job, before to land better drop you CVs to various Companies data bank with the note that you wil be available for an interview on such a date.Register yourself at Bayt.com, its good job portal for GCC. if you want anyother information/assistance feel free to contact to me.
Right - this is the low down many such office jobs are not done by europeans/north americans and hence the salary may not be of your expectations.
