I am coming to work in Qatar soon from Australia but the recruitment agent organised all the attestments from a public notary. These documents were then emailed to the company I will work for in Qatar and they organise the visa.
I feel you should get this attestation from a Public Notary before you leave. The attested documents are usually required by the employer before you are provided with a visa. My information is that the visa you receive before you leave is an entry permit and when you get to the airport you go to the visa section and they stamp your passport with the visa. The Resident's Permit apparently takes some time to acquire after you have arrived in Qatar. Also, you may be required to have a full medical in Qatar if you haven't had one already.
