Need advice

Hello all ,

I am Greek and my salary now is 800 € per month working as operation & planning supervisor in a tour operator in Greece but the future is seems to be very bad and unsecure. I have received an invitation for interview in Doha from QATAR AIRWAYS for the position Officer Hotel Contracts.

Does anybody know what expectations should have?
(Salary range, Doha lifestyle, allowances, Job Grade in QA e.t.c.)

Thank you very much for your attention.

nemo i dont have a 100% correct idea but this is what i heard ! in fact it depends on your negociation.

They offer accomodation normally but you can ask not to take it.

When i say total = basis salary + housing allowance + transportation

do not accept

you do not have any garantees even here

you will need to teach your students which will be very expensive

stick to your country

for a single guy it will be sufficient for an average life style, finally it all depends on the way which u used to live but u can save something (20%) if u have a strong will.

good luck :)

french kiss thank you

You said TOTAL . Do you mean including housing and benefits or these are extra? Do they offer accomodation . Do you know something about this?

Thanks in advance.

Also they asked me which is the salary that i am expecting and i asked 10000qr plus benefits . Do you think if i gor this salary and benefits the life is affordable in Doha? I am a single.

Thanks in advance.

first advice is not to disclose the current salary at the time of interview and don't show them that the future seems to be unsecured or any other similar negative thoughts.

expectation should not be less than double or more than the current salary (i.e. 2,000 € = Q.R. 10,000) plus other benefits like housing and transporting etc.
