I’m a 55 year old single female from Australia and in the early stages of a recruitment process for an administration position in Dhahran.
The salary, I’m told will be in AU $ and is $15k less than I receive in my current position in AU, however will be tax free.
I’m evaluating all the pros and cons and would particularly like to hear from other single expats about life in Dhahran. Particularly in regards to:
Is your salary paid in US or your local currency?
How does the cost of living compare?
How have you integrated into the expat community?
Are you happy living in Dhahran?
Do you feel safe?
