@Hiring Qatar
Below is my roller coaster ride at QVC and it's horrible.
I am 36 year old male.
I was working in Saudi Arabia in marketing and I got the good offer from Qatar based company and I resigned.
And I returned to Mumbai my home for my QVC medical and we found out QVC Mumbai has no appointment until 3 more months due to excess shutdown visas and I tried to get a lounge walk in Mumbai and they denied.
And after Qatar HR pressure for early joining we took the appointment in Delhi which was available and that's the biggest mistake I made I chose another city which is so far from Mumbai.
Finally I arrived in Delhi as per my appointment date for QVC medical and I took the lounge facility by paying 2900 in cash which I found later just a waste of money.
In 2900 which I paid the only benefit I got is within 45 minutes I was out from QVC after completing all the tests and other people who didn't take lounge facility for them the time for completion of test was 4-5 hours because QVC gives priority to those who paid lounge facility.
We were told to wait outside for 2 hours if they find anything in your blood or chest for which they need additional testing on the same day.
They then said go to your house It's all okay for now if anything we will call you.
And I returned to Mumbai then after 3 days they call me and said chest xray is not clear we need to do re xray.
And again I went to Delhi from Mumbai on the second appointment date which I took on incoming call from QVC, in the second appointment they just took re xray from five different angles and it was said to me go for now it's okay.
I planned to stay in Delhi for two days if I get another repeat test from QVC, the same day I received the call from QVC saying we need to do Quantiferon blood test, for which I got the appointment after 5 days and that day they gave the external clinic name and account number which cost me 2200 which I paid to external diagnostic centre account via Paytm, and submitted the slip which they asked for as a proof.
Initially after the first test my status was showing medical report pending and I took the quantiferon blood test it was still showing the same and finally after 8 days when QVC submitted my blood report to MOH Qatar status changed to medical report pending with authorities and finally after 2 days it was changed to medical report submitted and on MOI website my visa got cancelled and I got the message from HR that your medical is unfit.
I am healthy and totally fit, I am an active football player,I already worked in Dubai Saudi and Germany and I never failed work visa medical. QVC parameters are very very high I was failed on the ground of QVC was suspecting that I have TB. I never had TB nor covid nor Pneumonia in my entire life.
Whole process 3 visits took 20 days in total.
TIPS for you guys before going to any QVC medical
Try to book appointment in your city if they don't have appointment don't book in any other city just wait otherwise you have to run up and down like me, I travelled to Delhi from Mumbai 3 times which was a nightmare.
STRICTLY Don't pay lounge 2900 fees that's just a waste of money.
Don't resign your current job until you are passed from QVC, that's the biggest mistake I did and now I am jobless.
They are really strict about high sugar and blood pressure, before going for a test take a breakfast full of protein and avoid sugar, protein hold back the sugar and makes sure you give the test after 2 hours of breakfast so that your sugar level comes to normal, BP should be below 130/85.
Drink only water just plain water before getting inside no coconut water because it also raise blood sugar if it's sweet.
Don't go empty stomach for test and with good quality of sleep before the test.
I have seen from my vary eyes just a normal BP more than 150 they are referring young boys age 26 for ECG of heart test and sodium and potassium test which is external test and cost money and your QVC delays further
Try to book an appointment on Monday specially so that Qatar and India both should have working days so that you get final results in 3 days if you are fit.
Don't go for a revisit without an appointment they won't let you in.
Hope this will help you guys and also pray for my unemployment.
