Orders don't usually come in huge waves, but they keep coming, especially from industrial areas outside Muscat. The thing to know about Oman is Omanisation. A growing list of jobs is reserved for Omani nationals, and the list changes. We always check your roles against it before we start recruiting. Finding the perfect candidate for a job they legally can't take helps nobody. Many Indians have lived and worked in Oman for generations, especially from Kerala and North India, so new arrivals usually find a community waiting. ![Flag of Oman](https://kdahiring.com/siteadmin/images/flags/lg/om.png) ### Oman at a glance Main hiring hubs Muscat, Sohar, Duqm, Salalah, Nizwa Work permit Through the Ministry of Labour Medical Wafid, done in India before travel Nationalisation Omanisation reserves some roles for nationals After arrival Residence card arranged by employer ## Jobs in demand in _Oman_ These are the sectors our Omani orders come from most, and the roles that keep coming up. - ### Manufacturing - Machine operators - Fitters - Welders - QC staff - ### Ports and logistics - Crane operators - Drivers - Warehouse staff - ### Construction - Masons - Electricians - Carpenters - Foremen [Construction recruitment](https://kdahiring.com/industries-construction) - ### Healthcare - Staff nurses - Technicians - Pharmacists [Healthcare recruitment](https://kdahiring.com/industries-healthcare) ## Visa and paperwork for Oman, step by step Here's how a typical Omani order moves, from your side to ours. 1. ### Check the roles We confirm your vacancies aren't reserved for Omani nationals. 2. ### Work permit in Oman You apply for the work permit through the Ministry of Labour and send us the approval. 3. ### Testing and selection We test candidates in Lucknow and you pick the ones you want. 4. ### Wafid medical and stamping Workers take the Wafid medical in India and we get the visa stamped. 5. ### eMigrate and departure We file emigration clearance for ECR passport holders, arrange PBBY insurance and brief workers.
