It is possible to change the profession, but with a fee. The company might deduct it from you.

Even worst scenerio is they "ll not change your profession at all.

A salespersons visa is superior to that of labourer in different ways.

1-With a laboures visa, u can never get a visa for your family or perents. But a salesman can.

2-With a salesmans visa, u can travel to other GCC states excluding KSA without getting a visa in advance (U can get one at airport by presenting your salesperson visa in Qatar.)

So, my advice - tell them to get a salesmans visa.

Goodluck.
