good day & hope you are doing well. Advance Congrats for you and welcome to doha. Well, if your offer is from corporate companies/govt. they provide decent accomodation as all the apartments in doha being newly built or renovated/renewed. I think by QR you mean QATAR AIRWAYS. regarding viewing the unit prior to living is that what you need to talk once you arrive in here. Practically i dont think you'll be able to view housing before accepting your job offer. But there's nothing wrong in giving a try speaking.
However, there should always be an oppurtunity to claim for housing allowance if you dont like their housing. Remember, these days housing in doha is very expensive and day by day the scenario is getting worse because of the greedy landlords and real estate agents. Your early housing contract renewal is subjected to raise as much as 60% of the previous year. So,beware think twice before you make a move. Moreover, three bedroom starts from Qatar Riyals 8500+.
For schooling for your kids, it depends on your offer. Does it covers study for children and medical benefits for family. You have enough international schools? It would be good if QR takes care of your childrens educational allowance.
Personally, doha's traffic is very worse. Talking about the main city area you can live in NAJMA,MANSOURA,HILAL,,MATAAR KADEEM(airport road). However, these places are filled up by now but still you can find some near by airport road. If you live in these places all malls are close to each other. Though schools are a bit far there's always transportation provided by schools.
