How can I find a job in Qatar on marketing area? I am using LinkedIn, Bayt, CareerGulf and companies's website to apply and no answers.

I know it's a long process and I need to be patient, but I see the recruiting process it's kind different from Europe and I see that direct emails to HR managers and decision makers from companies don't help me. Same for being recommended by friends to their companies and went personally to companies where I applied for and try to speak personally with somebody there.

  • I think the idea is keeping at it, be relentless in all your efforts. Winners never quit and quitters never win.
  • Try finding a complementary job that is not necessarily what you want that way it will keep you afloat whilst you continue your search for what you want.
  • If you have capital and if you can get your market research going you could try enterprising and possibly start your own new firm but i would suggest making sure you can also find the market for what you might have in mind.
  • Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome might not work whilst job searching i guess try something different each time but stay professional.
  • The whole world is in a constant turmoil with unemployment, some better than others but i think the secret lies in the never ending continuous search whilst scouting for new opportunities in different areas as well.
  • All the best in your search

At times, merely applying though social websites is not of much help, deep digging is required. For example, if you are applying for a job opening through a career section of a company website, it is important to source out the recruitment person/team of the said company. For identifying the team/person LInkedIN can play a big role. After identifying, one should try to connect with them directly to segregate their application from the masses.
