Hi,

I live in Mumbai, India. I have been offered a job in Muscat, Oman. The job title is Project Manager and salary being offered is 1000 OMR. They said that one bachelor accommodation will be provided for and other expenses will be taken care of like medical, gratuity, air fare and visa.

What I want to know is that, for someone with 10+ years of experience in IT and already working as a Project Manager, 1. The salary being offered (1000 OMR) is it too less for 10+ years of experience?
2. What is the average salary being offered for someone with my profile or experience?
3. What else should I be asking for or am I missing something in what is being offered?

Thanks in advance.

For a Project Manager with 10 years of IT exp.
it is too low, compare with your current salary, ask atleast 2.5 times of your net salary of INDIA

@suresh_cma

Thanks for your reply. Now that you have told me about the salary expectation, do you think there are currently any IT companies in Oman recruiting for IT Project Manager position?

The payscales here are basically based on the size and the ratings of the organizations. Salary of a project manager in a AAA rated firm will certainly be much (Or much much) higher than the project manager of an A rated or AA rated firm.

Hence, evaluate the organization and similar perspectives before accepting the offer.
