Thanks for info!

Yes I was also thinking about living in Doha, as I understood it is the most suitable place.

I've got almost same basic salary at the moment and the only benefit in savings can be housing allowance. And of course this is a good opportunity to work in multinational environment and get more experience working abroad.

Cheers!

Comapre with what you are getting now. Do you have any saving from your present employer? If not I suggest take it. You only know when you are here. I am sure you will be happy after a while.

Everybody live in DOHA and drive to LAS RAFEN everyday and it is almost one hour driving.

GOOD LUCK

I was said that working day would be 8 hours, 5 days per week.

Salary is not enough for 2 people? How much do I need then for 2 people (as a minimum)?

I don't know company name yet, it was recruitment company and they gave me not official offer. But it's oil & gas industry.

I'm from Azerbaijan.

My position at the moment is document control supervisor.

The figure looks managable, but again it depends on your life style. Cost of living here is real high. You can start deducting off for foods, car loan, education and other overheads
