Dear All,
It was great to receive so many responses. I understand that the salary offered is very low. I have rejected the offer.
Thanks all my friends. I do not know how to reach all of u, so this general mail.
I have got an offer from Qatar Foundation for Sr. Civil Supervisor which is basically like a Section Head. They offered me QR 11283 plus QR 7000 HRA plus QR 1200 transport plus QR 500 Utility allowance, plus children allowance plu excursion fare annual and QR 40000 Furniture loan depreciated fully in 4 years plus one month salary after every one year of srvicr.
Could you please give your comments on this offer. Presently, I am working with second largest oil company in India as a Sr. Managerand I am a Civil Engineer with Postgraduation in Finance management.

Dear All
I am new to this forum and would appreciate if you could share any information about salaries in Universities. I am thinking of moving to Qatar but so far have no idea about salary scales. Any information would be very much appreciated.
www.expatengineer.net offers lots of position , go and have a look.
Good luck .
eight thousand plus allowances isn't *that* bad. English teachers at QU were getting that until 2 years ago and apart from housing (provided) the cost of living hasn't gone up very much. How much is that transport allowance? And note the schooling allowance. If the transport allowance covers a car, and the accomodation is OK, then you can make your own calculations, but you won't be getting much less than many teachers here, and more than some.
By and large, QU pays the job, not the nationality. Faculty is very multinational and they're all on the same salary scale.
I agree, the salary offered is toooooooooooo low.
ask for more, atleast double or check out the oil and gas sector
NO..Its a horrible Salary...This is the boom time for Construction..Log on to NaukriGulf.com...Almost every single offer is way above 16K AED (Yeah! Yeah!! ..Accomdation is free etc..etc..but then Thats money not in your pocket..)
QR 8,350 per month...this doesn't sound like a good salary offer for a civil engineer -- it is US$2,288 per month or US$27,456 per year.
I think it has more to do with where your from rather than what your qualified to do.
I'm not sure of the exact nature of your job, but 8000+ sounds pretty good to me.
I am assuming this is not a faculty member position. Is it a position for a technical/technolgest in a lab. If that is the case, then I think you should get more than 8350 QR. What is your position? This is not aprofessor position, is it?
In anycase your should always ask for an increase of at least 10% of whatever you are offerd.
With your experience, i would suggest you apply to oil/gas companies or major EPC contractors in the oil/gas industry. You will find that their salaries are higher. Saying that, job titles mean quite alot here. It would be wise to ask QU to see the job description of the post so you can make sure its not a junior position.

That would be a very low salary for a QU faculty member, I think.
