Hey guys, I recently got hired for a position in Qatar, starting salary is $98,000 USD tax free per year (with opportunities for overtime) plus free housing, you can also bring your family if you have one. The schedule is 4 days on 4 days off. I met with the management and some of the team at the EMS World Expo in Las Vegas recently. It seems like a very legit organization (however, I can not promise anything as I have not worked there yet).
My friend has been working there for a year, says its great. He is also a member of EMTLIFE so I'll try and convince him to answer questions on this thread also. I just thought I would spread the news and answer any questions in case anyone maybe interested, I guess they still need a few guys. Also, they require you be certified as a critical care paramedic in someway, FP-C, CCP-C, CCEMT-P, or something, its flexible due to international hiring. Most medics with critical care certs from most western countries are welcome to apply. A college degree is preferred but not required in all cases. Lastly, you do very little critical care facility transport, its all emergency "fly car" but with additional equipment and expanded scope. Flight opportunities may exists for some eventually.
This is my 3rd contract in the middle east, and by far the best pay, vacation, and contract I have ever signed in the GCC. I am not affiliated with the company in anyway other than a new hire, nor do I receive credit or gain from referring new employees. I am simply sharing the opportunity is all.
Its for this hospital http://www.hmc.org.qa/en/ but you have to apply through these guys http://www.gmrecruiting.com/
**I was not sure if I should post this under employment or international. **
