Finding work while on a tourist visa

Hello

I have a job and a sponsor to move to Qatar in Jan 2018. If my husband comes with me to Qatar, is he able to find a job that will sponsor him while out there, talking to businesses face to face? He will be with me on a tourist visa for three months. As obvioulsy he cannot work under my sponsorship.

Thanks

in a tourist visa u can find a job. once he takes up the job, please ensure the company has the work visa for your country - eg. Indian/Srilankan/British Male visa.

If they have a visa after getting a job he should exit the country and then the company can apply for the visa, takes about 2 days(provided papers submitted correctly by company).

Yes, he can hold business meetings with would-be employers without joining and working for any company.
