Moving to Kuwait

Post new topic

skriblomaniac

Hi All,
   We are Indians and planning to move to Kuwait in next three months from.
   I would like to know if the oil companies take Women Engineers there in Kuwait. I am specifically asking this as my wife is a post graduate in Petroleum Engineering (works as Reservoir Simulation specialist) with 20+ year’s experience.

   We keep getting conflicting reports about women engineers in Kuwait from international Recruiting agencies.
   
   Any inputs from you guys in Kuwait would be a big help for us to take a decision.
