 A Palestanian can get a job in gulf countires as a Pakistani and indian gets with the same work experience.  Through job search is the only way to get a job, to be a Palestanian is not a condition.

If you are already residence in Gulf countries it is possible in case you want to change your current job, otherwise it is not possible based on the current applied regulation.

It is possible, but the company must be prepared to support you. In that way they give you a workpermit, which is aligned with your diploma´s, but is a different jobtitle than HR. Favorite jobtitles to use for this reason are quality inspection, training consultant and such. With such visa´s you can get in, but again you have to prove your deep value to the company. I myself work in Saudi in HR, whilst not being a local national, so it is possible
