I'm Egyptian and I'm offered a job as a Training and Development officer at a real estate company in Doha and they will provide accommodation and transportation.
I have 4 yrs of experience in training and development and I'm currently not working.
My question is this offer worth to take?

اعتقد ان الراتب ده مش حلو وخصوصا انك ذكرت ان عندك 4 سنين خبره....الراتب ده ممكن يكون مقبول لحد مبتدىء

مع العلم اني معنديش خلفيه عن رواتب العقرات لكن المصاريف عموما في قطر نار ...وان كل حاجه غاليه جدا مش زي مصر وان لا يسمح لاي شخص انه يجيب عائلته (او زجته بس حتى) إلا إذا كان راتبه 7000 او اكتر

وده مش إفتراء منهم لكن ديه تكاليف الحياه الطبيعيه لاقل عيله في الشهر

بس في ميزه انهم هيشيلوا عنك مصاريف السكن ...وديه تقريبا اغلى حاجه

و الموصلات شرحها لان مفيش حاجه اسمها مواصلات عامه في قطر ...كله لازم يكون عنده عربيته

المفروض يوفرولك اجازه مدفوعه شهر في السنه

و تذاكر سنويه

وربنا يرزقك بوظيفه كويسه يا رب اكون قدرت افيدك

Hi,

This is a hard question to answer.

I think you can save from 1000 to 2,500 QR/month

It depends on your lifestyle.

For a single man who does not depend entirly on eating outside, 2000 Qr/month is a reasonalbe amount to spend.

If you are married or if you have kids, then my answer would be different.

Over all, I think the salary is not so good with your experience, but the fact that you are unemployed forces you to look at it differently.

I hope this helps
