Hello all,
First of all, great forum :)

I come from Slovenia. My girlfriend is allready here in Manama for work, and I'm trying to come after her.

I have a lot of questions, but I will try to narow them as much as I can :)

1. Is it difficult to find a job as an IT Administrator, helpdesk, ... I have high school , 5+ experience in this work field and Microsoft certificate. How are sallaries, are they any good or average?

2. How is with football here in Manama. I 'm semi-pro football player playing currently in Italy. Can you play in Bahrain footbaal semi-pro( with little get paid) or only as PRO?
for this question I have experience but only in 1.League not :)

for now this.
THank you all for your time :)

The majority of people working in IT in the Gulf are from the Indian subcontinent. As a result, often salaries in that area are not what you would want coming from a European market. So, you'll probably find salaries on the low side.

Aha. Ok, thank you . I though so, because when I was looking at job offers in IT , there weren't big salaries as much as someone would thought :)

What about football? :)
