Canadian RN new Sidra !

That is not a problem if your husband is Canadian.
However Sidra might not pay for the extra hotel costs if the housing is not yet ready.
Make sure you have all of the required documents and that they are certified by the Canadian Office of Foreign Affairs and the Qatar embassy in Ottawa.
These are,  at a minimum, your diploma, marriage certificate, your husband diploma, RCMP certificates for both of you  and maybe others you should check with Sidra.
Good luck.

Thank you for the reply !!!

Hello Zahra,

Sidra salaries are known to be very good. Apart from your basic salary, you, normally, will have the right to many other allowances. So be optimistic.

Sidra is downsizing now and has been known in the past to put applicants through therecruiting process and then withdraw offers. Do you have an official offer letter? If not hang onto your current employment and home until and unless you get one. An engineer friend says their facility does not meet code and won't be able to do so for rears. They are already 5 or 6 years behind.

Does anyone know if the Sidra Outpatient clinic is still scheduled to open May 1?

No one is sure of that. Sidra was supposed to oficially start working in 2012. However, till today nothing of that happened. Let's wait and see.

Zahraab how did your interview go? Did you get an offer?

The Sidra Outpatient Clinic did indeed open May 1 as scheduled. My wife joined the staff at Sidra Outpatient and loves it there. She has been living in Doha for almost 2 weeks now. She loves the city, the people, and her new apartment provided by Sidra. It is all as promised and more. I am looking forward to joining her as soon as my visa is approved.

So exciting. Hope to join Sidra very soon too!

Is yout wife at the pediatric clinic?
I am waiting to relocate there soon frim US.

Fozlucia,

My wife is working in the "Out-Patient Clinic".

Good luck with your transition to Sidra.

how is your wife finding the job? i start in the new year and was wondering if she could answer some questions for me?

Thanks

Hello, sorry for the delayed response. If you send me your questions, I will pass them on to my wife. She is not a member of this site.

I remember we were not told much from the recruiters so I understand your curiosity and am happy to answer your questions from what I know.  Now that the worst of the summer heat is almost over we are starting to enjoy the weather more. As you may know, Sidra has still not yet opened yet so they opened the Sidra Out Patient Clinic for now, but only partially. Kathy says that since the OPC is not fully open, most of her work is computer or training related to prepare for the full opening. She is a respiratory therapist and has started to work a few days a week at Hamad to keep her still sharp.
We are living at:Al Rayyan Complex
It is a 2 bedroom apartment. It is very nice with a great pool and some shops inside the clubhouse. Hopefully they will place you here.

What position will you be assigned to at Sidra?

***

Yes I, and my wife are both in Doha now.  She went over in April, I followed in late June as soon as my visa was approved. If you both enjoy traveling, you should like it here as it seems like a working vacation type atmosphere. There are many things that dont make sense and can be frustrating, but if those kind to things dont bother you, you will be fine. It helps to have friends here so hopefully we can all meet up after you get here. Keep me posted on your timeline. Good luck!

oddly enough, they have high turn over. People are getting laid off more so, just count your blessings, nothing is guaranteed here.

Hi Sir.. Im sheng, I would like to humbly ask you on how did your wife applied at sidra? Did she applied directly or under recruitment agency? I am considering working at sidra but I dont know how and where to start.. I am a filipino and currently working at operating theater..
Thank you and hoping for you response

Hello sheng,

My wife used a recruitment agency to get her job at Sidra.
I wish you good luck in your efforts.

Good day everyone!
I am a nurse here in the Philippines. And I have an application in Sidra. I have done with my medical exams. Unfortunately, my PPD Test yields POSITIVE result.
Tuberculosis is known to be highly endemic in my country. And I am working in a healthcare facility, so I am exposed to this disease.
I know that PPD Test tells  you're exposure to Tuberculosis, and it doesn't mean that you have the disease.
By the way, my Chest Xray result is NEGATIVE.
My questions and concerns are: will it affects my application in Sidra? Will it be a hindrance to my dream to work in Sidra and Qatar? Can Sidra still consider my application?

Please help me. It bothers me so much. I really do want to work to Sidra.

You mean you had a positive ppd as well?
I hope they would give me a chance..

Hi! Will employment gap affect the application at sidra?

Hello Aldz30. When you finished the interview?  You currently in Saudi Arabia also? Because rightnow i am gathering the docs needed. Interview done and i signed the job offer. I will do next is prometric and data flow.

If anyone is interested recently offered a role as a sonographer at Sidra and the salary they were offering 12,000 QAR plus benefits (accomodation, car allowance etc) is lower than what is paid in Australia. They actually withdrew the offer after looking at payslips and current contract saying they cannot match the existing salary.

Hello aldz
I read you're from ksa also.i just want to ask if you manage to get the good standing certificate from saudi council and send to sidra directly? Whats the process??

Many thanks

I  a women's health RN who just did an interview for Sidra. Would love to chat about peoples experience to help me decide.
