IT in the Middle East
I would like to know what the IT market is like in the Middle East countries, i.e. Saudi Arabia, Qatar etc.
Many of the Middle East economies are again beginning to show signs of growth, in particular Saudi Arabia which has a predicted 4% growth for next year. Much of this comes from infrastructure modernisation programs taking place through government funding, in order to improve healthcare, power provision and transport links.
However, much as elsewhere, there are still outstanding debt issues, and a rise in this could affect private sector corporate and family owned businesses.
If I was to chose somewhere in the Middle East to relocate to at this time both Qatar and Saudi Arabia represent the safest bet.

Students for contracts
I would like to know if you can hire students for some contracts.
Some agencies will recruit students on a short term project basis, but Modis International focuses on placing professionals with a proven track record and expertise within a particular field.
We commend the fact that you are looking to develop your skills and expertise while studying; you need to do what you can to make yourself stand out after graduating and there is nothing more important than experience.
