Hi

 

I have got an offer of 14,000QR/month plus benfit + 5,000QR for housing allowance, i have requested for a housing instead of allowance, the response was NO for housing but they increased my basic to 15,000QR ( Emplyer is Government IT Agency, Postion : Internet Systems Engineer )

 

Package Details :

* Basic : 15,000 QR

* Housing Allowance : 5,000 QR

* Transport : 1,150 QR

* Communications : 500 QR

* Utility Allowance : 400 QR

* Benfits : Medical insurance, Furniture grand, Car loan, eductional support "28,000 for 2 children", Travel tickets

 

Am single now, but might get married in a year, my Question is :

* Can i get a decent/good 1BED/Hall/Kichen flat with this allowance, a flat wich can i live in with my future wife ?

I did read QL claissfieds but it's confusing and am not sure if information is accurate .

Its seems this package is TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT, so i would like your advice on the housing issue .

Hi,

This is very good offer.

Just grab it . you will get house in the range of 6-7k for family.

Considering ur total package u could save 10k per month which is good enough.
