apply through an agency there or online application, you will have difficulty finding a job using a visit visa only and yes ramadan is near so that will add up to your difficulties, plus if ever you're hired here locally your salary might not get you through here

You have many option i think. As you have said, you can either search there for job vacancies here in Doha or come here and look for yourself. And you are right, Ramadan is coming so i think you better search there first. You can come after Ramadan. But that is entirely up to you. Good luck.

Dear Coolcane,
First of all, you must tell something about your job as their requirements might differ comparing to others.
.
Agree with others that either directly submit ur resume online on related company's websites or recruitment agencies in Qatar.
.
Also, Ramadan & year end both are approaching too. So plan very carefully coz many high profiled companies/banks stop hiring at the year end as they have to plan for next year budget. So they stop or slow down in hiring till January/February.
.
At the end. i would recommend that till Jan/Feb, just submit your resume from INDIA and do visit Qatar after or during Jan/Feb.
.
www.qtel.com.qa [ONLINE DIRECTORY]
.
In the above site, when you will click ONLINE DIRECTORY you will see IMORTANT NUMBERS "Category". Search through it one by one as per your job requirements and you will get the phone numbers of all companies/banks
.
You may use WHITE PAGES in ONLINE DIRECTORY. Just type full/partial name in that caption and you will get all the names of companies having that name in any position
FOR EXAMPLE: restaurant, bank, realestate etc and you will get all the company names having above 3 names in any position
.
HOPE POINT UNDERSTOOD & good luck 4 ur future
