Hi All,
I am planning to Riyadh as a Software Professional .
I had received a contingent offer letter and it was mentioned that visa will be transferred to Iqama within 3 months.
When I checked with the recruiter i came to know i have to do a medical checkup only and no need of certificate attestation, since the certificate attestation will take time .So I have to do the certificate attestation once reached KSA. And also they told me that my visa is a general work visa and as soon as I reached Riyadh I have to change the profession with the attested certificates .
My major concern is whether this normal process?
Can anyone help me is this all general process or something different. And also apart from this I was recruited for one company since that company does not have a proper visa they are giving through another visa partner company.
Because i know from many of my friends went with certificate attestation from HRD India and they got visa with proper family status.

Kinldy Advise ASAP.
