I was offered a position with TATI. My flight involves a stopover in Muscat to obtain a visa, theoretically for 24 hours. Surprisingly it appears that I am expected to pay for the hotel, transport in Muscat and meals - before I have even started work, or arrived at my work location. It's not my first time in Oman so I know that these expenses are going to be in the region of $100 a day, even for the cheapest hotel. I say 'appears' as to date they will not answer my questions regarding this. I have asked twice.
The contract states that in the event of the employee being dismissed or being unsuitable for work no return flight is provided. If you arrived in Muscat and failed the work visa aplication process for some reason you would be left down the creek without a paddle to say the least.
At your work location no accommodation is provided. You must find your own. How, exactly, is a question which again remains unanswered. If you stay in a hotel for the first month and then rent a flat, the cost would ammount to the greater part of your first payment. The colleges must wonder why potential employees are not arriving.
Of course I could be wrong about Tati because, as I said, they will not answer my questions. If you work for them or know otherwise please let me know.
