My wife and I have both applied for employment with companies in Qatar.

If only 1 of us gets a job, how hard is it for the other to find work there? I am a lawyer, and she is a teacher. I think she has a better chance of getting her position.

The teaching jobs are coming up this month - you need to check www.tes.co.uk - international jobs. Or there are American school she can contact (google them. Teaching Salaries for a class teacher with 10+ years experience can range from 8,000 to 18,000 so be careful where she chooses. I know nothing about Lawyers here sorry
Good Luck
