Jobs in Qatar

Given a buoyant economic growth in the last couple of years, jobs in Qatar bring in new opportunities and promises. The leading cities like Doha, Al Rayyan, and Al Khor are the primary centers of most jobs in Qatar. The economy of Qatar is based on its oil and natural gas industry which continues to bring prosperity to the country. Given the economic development that Qatar has experienced over the years, various types of jobs are available, including teaching, nursing, hospitality, IT and management.

The non-oil sectors have been receiving investment and expenditure from the governments. As a result, in addition to locals, many expatriates are also choosing Qatar as the ideal country to find a job in. Starting from 2006, many projects which have been receiving government and private investments will resume their operations. This will increase the number as well as variety of jobs in Qatar.

Although primarily an oil, gas and minerals based economy, Qatar has been looking to diversify into other areas. The most important of them all is IT and hospitality. Given the increase of expatriates in Qatar, the hospitality industry is bound to become a major sector in terms of employment. Also, the government has been taking a lot of interest in developing the IT sector in the country.
