This is so low for a doctor. You need to re- think of your decisions.. A clerk in a government company can earn a package of 13000 riyals.. It wont be enough if youll be sponsoring your family..

The salary offered is PEANUTS. Accepting it is sooo degrading.

The lowest gross that you should be accepting should be around QR 30,000.00.

The QR15,000 all inclusive salary is extremely low. The least you should expect should be QR40,000.

accomadation is very expensive in doha you would need to spend at least 6k-7k for a decent 2 bedroom flat then your monthly expenses would be 3k-4k minimum and your child education 1k-2k so you would be able to save only 2k think well before joining atleast try to get free accomadation with 15k you would be able to save something
