Oman’s dependence on skilled foreign labor has turned this country into a big expat hub. Although the government started the policy of ‘Omanisation,’ which requires employers to hire expats only for the positions that can’t be filled by the local experts, the expat job market in Oman is still very promising and dynamic.
