Hi,

let’s talk about job opportunities in Muscat.

What are the top hiring sectors?

And according to you, what are the most promising job sectors, which will keep creating jobs in Muscat?

Thanks in advance for sharing your experience,

Given the massive road expansion projects that are going on almost all across the length and breadth of the Sultanate, jobs opportunities in the construction industry is high.

Given the heavy thrust of providing jobs to the locals (known as 'Omanisation'), jobs opportunities for expatriates are becoming dearer by every passing day.

Thanks Sumitran for this information

Hi everyone, I was recently in Muscat and found it a very charming place to be - the folks, the environment, even the general feeling of being in Muscat is very nice.

How is the oil and gas industry in Oman now? Do we see a lot of exploration and production? How about downstream facilities? Hope someone can shed a bit of light on this one? Thanks in advance.
