for my sister...for an XXX amount of money which is ridiculously high. A SHARK for a friend...uuughh !!!
He doesn't know that I already know how much it really cost.
Then one day, he came to me asking if I could help his woman friend look for a job. That woman is 50 years old and our sister companies have this age limit policy for certain position. (Even I, myself got rejected from positions I applied for because of MY AGE. Good thing, my current employer is/was more interested in my work experience and knowledge of the work scope than my AGE.)
When I got to speak with the woman...she told me how much she paid for the business visa AND PLANE TICKETS... >QAR5,000.00 with a promise of a sure job when she arrives QATAR.
It's her 2nd month here in Qatar and still no job...and she's been calling me every now and then asking for help to land her a job...which I tried and failed because of her age.
BOTTOMLINE: For those who come to QATAR on business/tourist visa...unless you got friends or families here to support you while you look for a job, don't.

But, at the end of the day...it's your decision.
