Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hi Alla,

If u dont have any gulf exp, then 12000 is ok, but if u already worked in gulf then 17000 sr salary is not too high salary.

best of luck

Hello Alaa,

With many of these jobs in the middle east, they tend to offer salary packages dependent on the nationality. Westerns tend to get triple the salary than others, which is unfair.

Manoj's response epitomises the reason why I don't come into the Forums much these days.

Hi Alaa

As the old saying goes - "There is no harm in asking."

Best regards
