Finding employment in the State of Qatar

It is always best to start with the job classifieds and appointments of the daily newspapers. From the three English daily newspapers published in Qatar that have websites, only Gulf Times includes a daily classifieds section of situations vacant with job vacancies in the form of a PDF file. When it comes to the numerous Arabic daily newspapers with online websites, only Al Wata contains a section for career vacancies at its newspaper in English.

Thru Qatar Recruitment Agencies

It is very difficult to find job vacancies in Qatar through recruitment agencies because most of them do not have websites or their websites are nowhere to be found. The only recruitment agencies which could be found was Key Resources and it doesn’t seem that their website was updated since June 2003.
