Re: Riyadh Job offer and expenses

Re: Apartment complexes in Riyadh

Outside of compounds, the only places you'll find many Westerners will be shopping malls, plazas etc.

Re: Debt in KSA work in UAE

Re: Qatar Energy indefinite vs definite contract.

You may not even last 3 years for a whole variety of reasons.

If you think the cash is good now then better to take that than think about what you might not be getting in 2 years time.

The post I referred to mentioned coming on a work visa, there is no reason for the iqama to take a long time after arriving with this.
