the Software market is not that strong ... You need to find a job in one big company other than that forget it [software engineering] ...

I dont think there is any Software Developement happening in Qatar, only implementation and support even if it is the big companies... not sure abt this correct me if i'm wrong even i'm curious.

I dream of a better tomorrow where Chickens can cross the Road without having their motives questioned - Unknown

yasar said Companies develop software for their business ...

No specifically software company as such..
but companies like Qatar Petroleum and Qatar Gas have dev team to tackle their own needs...

King Edshel said So if you ...

have such information and you know where to go, then why did you asked here???

Mannai is doing that and I have a friend there, but most of their work is Oracle based ... they got around 30 people for Oracle, but when it comes to .Net and Java ... nope they don't have that much ...

We did not say that there is none, but ... the opportunities are so limited .. Ras Gas or others will ask you for 5 years experience at least ... do you have that? If not then your chances are like <10% and if you don't know anyone there to get you in then it's <2%

Good luck ...
