I had a site interview 5 weeks ago and apparently my offer is subject to final approval from HR - is this long wait normal.I am a female engineer who will be sponsoring her husband and family - would this complicate matter and is anyone else in the same situation ?

Pasomarch, do you think QP is accepting nurses too?

Experience is a good teacher. Don't take it for granted. Instead learn from it.

Some people get offered on the spot, some have to wait for months.

There is no rhymes or rythm. To each his/her own....

everything's slow in here. my first day of work in a govt hospital was 6 months after my actual interview. this long for just HR paperworks. No visa processing at that matter since I was under father's sponsorship yet.

Things are pretty slow at QP, however; have you received the offer? If yes, the visa process may take up to 6 months. This is normal with not only QP but all semi government companies\corporations here in Qatar.

I won't tell you how long my offer took!, not from QP but from a Hospital here, I had given up!! but all worked out in the end unfortunately things go very slowly here! something you will get used too!

As for sponsoring Husband and Kids, I do just that, had a few hiccups, the idea of the husband looking after the kids is not something that is quite understood here!.. just be patient ( you will need lots of patience!) and hopefully it will all work out, Good Luck

So why did they tell me at the site visit that I would hear something in 2-3 weeks ? or is that usual for them ?

For QP the minimum waiting period is 3 months and it can extend upto 6 months.

So wait, wait and wait!!!!
