Saudi Arabia Nursing Job Offer: Is it the Right Move for My Family?

Considering a lucrative nursing job in Saudi Arabia?  My wife, a 42-year-old EU-trained nurse, received a tempting offer with a tax-free salary of roughly 5,000 per month, plus an expat package including accommodation, food allowance, and transportation.  However, we're weighing the pros and cons.  Is this salary competitive within Saudi Arabia's nursing market? Is negotiation possible?  Relocating our family from the EU is a major concern, as the salary might not cover the costs and lack of family support. What's a realistic relocation budget?  Finally, the job is at a Saudi Military Hospital, and the recruiter specified 'female candidates only'. Should we be concerned about this?  We're seeking advice from those with experience in Saudi Arabia, particularly regarding salary expectations, relocation costs, and the implications of working in a military hospital.  Your insights on navigating cultural differences, healthcare systems, and expat life in Saudi Arabia, a country experiencing significant economic growth and modernization efforts,  would be invaluable.  #SaudiArabia #NursingJobs #ExpatLife #Relocation #MiddleEastJobs #SalaryNegotiation #MilitaryHospital #FamilySupport #CareerAdvice
