How long most of you have been waiting, after confirmation? Why such a long waiting period ? Is it worth the wait?
Good luck on the joining date....
Cheers
Actually the wait time in the talent pool is not so long anymore. Last year was an exception due to the blockade, which completely changed the scenario and manpower requirements for Qatar.
Now that everything is settled and they figured out their numbers things have started to move on a faster pace again. I'd say the average wait time right now is 6 months.
Bear in mind that plans change REALLY fast in this part of the world. What is true today might not be a month from now, so don't take those numbers as a hard rule, but barely a ballpark figure for the current situation.
The key is to be patient and wait for your turn, but always have a plan B.
