Two to three pages.
British spelling.
The rules that only apply in Oman
- Omanisation sets nationalisation targets by sector, so expatriate hiring concentrates in the roles where a local candidate is genuinely scarce — technical, specialist and senior. A CV that argues scarcity does better than one that argues breadth.
How your CV actually gets read in Oman
Hiring is agency- and referral-heavy, with the regional boards carrying the advertised volume. Your profile fields on those boards — nationality, current location, notice period — do the first round of filtering before anyone opens a file.
Where Oman roles are advertised: LinkedIn, Bayt and Naukrigulf.
What employers in Oman ask about your right to work
Employment runs on an employer-sponsored labour clearance and residence card, and the employer must satisfy Omanisation requirements for the role before a visa is issued at all.
