It doesn't look right to me. The email address is Gmail ([email protected]) and the website address at the bottom (http://www.desatqu.org/), although the website itself looks authentic, isn't a Qassim University URL (http://www.qu.edu.sa/en/Pages/Home.aspx). |

I think it is authentic. The paid summer break is short. |

The ad mentions 30 days of paid vacation, which means the employer is likely a contracting company and not the university. |

I don't think it is a contractor although I could be wrong. That ad looks just like one of the Saudi university direct hire ads and they are recruiting right now. |

I would say that it is a contractor. Interesting that they are hiring males and females. Could be okay for a teaching couple. I have known foreigners m- especially converts - who actually liked Qassim

Indeed. They may be expected to cover completely. |

So there are no issues with the fact that it's a Gmail address, then? |

Probably a contractor. That COULD be an issue. |
