Truly truly there are disparities. Your passport/ nationality speaks for you here.

As for contacts, I have not come across such. Yes amongst Saudis it's very common. They get anything through contacts including university. As for expats, I have not really come across such. The only thing I am aware of is Nationality. Even then, I can guarantee you that you will be better off than your counterparts in your home country or majority of the countries. Here you save a lot because, you don't pay for accommodation and electricity and also transport to work.

I will advice you to keep on keeping on applying. One day the sun will shine on you.

thanks for your response. i guess i also have to start making connections with friends.

chineloSA:
Please share with us what your friends said?

But situations are different, your God may open a door that no one can close. Stay positive.

my friends who are originally saudi or kuwati or emirati find it not that easy to tell about the unequallity of salary...but the ones whose parent are working in gulf are open about it and told me thats why most of them come to uk or usa to study so as to get better edge....and even sometimes travel to canada to get citizenship. ..but even now canada is difficult.. but i still have some who said is about knowing people also as they can influence your salary or introduce you into oil company. Like i av a friend who said his dad friends have already secured a job to come and head just by finishing is course...i believe you must av been familiar with all the saga

worry357:
You have not said if you finished your course and gained a qualification.
Just "studying" means nothing.

about finishing

Hope you are enjoying yr stay and staying off mutawa...

I would be lying if I say I know the salary scale for pharmacist. I will ask one Nurse I know in Riyadh for you.

But with your British qualification, there are very good chances for you.

Complete your studies, we are waiting for you in the Kingdom

shukran (thanks).....i have some friends from saudi that we are studying together and even other nationality whose parent are working in saudi and i learn from them about the passport issue with salary but i was trying to find out from a NNigerian who can tell me more info cause i guess they wont want to tell me in my face

worry357:
Did you just study pharmacy for a time, or have you any recognised qualifications?

studying pharmacy as undergraduate which is like mpharm

chineloSA:
What do you wanna do with your pharmacy qualification? Do you intend to come to Saudi Arabia and teach English or do you intend to practice pharmacy in the Kingdom?

i want to practice as a pharmacist

@chineloSA pls do you think having a nigerian passport but study pharmacy in the uk will add to your salary and do you have what range of salary you should be expecting as having nigerian passport with uk certificate. .thanks

justwise: I'm not taking personal, i explained the changes to you and then you asked if an agent to can that for you? Come-on now? You lived in the UK for a year or so....i mean...

I understand ur point of view..I wouldn't expect someone to do dat 4 me rather u took me wrong when I meant agent..just curious if der is document arrangement or something special...wat I was expecting from u is just to tell me no big deal just fill d form and book appointment...nevertheless u doing great job

Dont take it personal...u are never wiser dan wat u dont know

justwise: The changes are online application and interview, nothing more.
