What is the process to follow to practice as a Medical Lab Scientist?

chineloSA:


Take a look at the above posts with webpage addresses, they might help you. Only if you wanna go into the academic field.

Iqama is a work permit that your employer applies on your behalf to work here. The employer bears all the costs of relocation etc and they become our Mahrams especially for us women.Some employers refuse to hand people over to other employers because of the costs of relocating and recruiting one person.

Therefore they sort of "close iqama" meaning you cannot resign and join another employer. You have to resign, return to your country of origin and start the process all over again.

"Transferable Iqama" simply means transferable work permit. Eg. If you come with a wife and your wife is your dependant under your "Iqama", she can find a job while in Saudi, if she decides to take another offer, she is free to do it because her "Iqama" is transferable. She didnt arrive in Saudi through any company, but through the husband.

This is somehow modern day slavery, but it doesn't affect us that much. People resign and return to their home countries and start the process all over again.

Someone that I know was recruited for a job of 30k per month you won't believe what they got him doing and he's doing it good.

Thanks so much. That will be helpful I guess. But guys, be alert of any scams or human trafficking parasites who use well meaning sites for their evil. Some of these websites are not all good.

Consult, ask at the embassy, research, research, research.

At least we are having a calm thread with no bickering and insults . Way to go guys.

When you wanna do CELTA, normally they don mind what degree you have. All they need is a degree.

So, your education degree is a bonus.

I am a Nigerian doctor also relocating to Saudi Arabia Jeddah to be precise.
Going with my wife and the kids.
I have read lots and lots of stuff.
Good and bad sides.no social life and boredom.
I am willing to give it a try.
My visa is ready and pay is fairly okay.
I need more tips from my people particularly guys in Jeddah.
Thanks for all.
God bless

chineloSA:


Alot of hope for you as long as you will present your British passport. Even better pay. But Nigerian passport, it will be hard.

Good luck

Omo I read this thread from beginning and all I can say is that you are wonderful. Everything you have said about saudi is true. I am currently here in najran, asir province and spent 8months. It's not been easy but life here is doable.

Am a doc with just 3yrs post grad experience and hoping to leave here in 2017 for the west and probably return in future. I have been to south Africa, Brazil, uk on visit visas in the past for conferences and I ve Ben exposed to public and global health.

Please do you know of any options for medical laboratory scientists in hail or riyadh? My wife to be studied that and I am really thinking if I will bring her here or not.

She won't be able to survive in najran especially with the new Yemeni bombings, anyways our wedding is next year december, so hope to be outta here before then!

Also, I was in riyadh for the first time last week, I went to renew my UK visa, omo that place was so lit and burriful. Very big contrast from where I am oo. But like you said in previous posts, these smaller cities like hail, najran etc have lesser problems as regards calmness and all.

Nice to see you here and let me know if it's okay to pm you for contact on whatsapp or bbm.

Godbless

3 weeks!, how is that possible cause my agent told me that medical result alone usually comes out in ten days.

talkless07:
I know they only accept a medical test from one specialist in Abuja that's the only hospital the embassy accept I can't really say if the rule have change but the guy I talked about got his medicals and visa in Abuja within 2 weeks after receiving his visa doc from employer from saudi

omoluka:
