| Does anyone have any info on DLS? Their ad says they are located "next to" Abu Dhabi. Looking for info on pay, benefits, working conditions, etc. In other words, the usual thing... Thanks. |

Thanks for the search tip, VS. But the only actual discussion about this place was back in 2009 and didn't include any concrete info from a direct or even second-hand source -- just suppositions and speculations.
So, please, if anyone has some current info about this place, I'd be grateful to you.. |

| Hello, Everyone. I still can't find any recent info on this place. The current job ad appeared a few days ago on TESOLdotcom, and it states the contract would be through the US Government. If anyone could post any info -- salary range, benefit package, student info, overall work environment, etc. -- I'd appreciate it. |

The lack of posts here reflects the tiny number of teachers that have ever been hired. or...
Take care that it isn't a scam. (check scam thread above to know what to look for)

| Well...what I do know is that they have a legit website, Facebook page, etc., so they do exist. They're based in the DC area. The problem has been getting in touch with someone who has employment info. Will keep researching... |

Unfortunately, it seems the only way you'll get information is by applying and qualifying for an interview. |

I know that the organization exists, but the scammers piggyback on legitimate organizations and real websites... even ARAMCO!!.
It is most likely legit, but... take great care when it seems that we can't find anyone who is familiar with the actual position. You can't be too careful these days.
