Hello. I had a job interview for an international school last week in Egypt over Skype and she asked if she could check my references. I said absolutely!!! My question is...how long do you think it will take to hear back from her if at all.
I would really like this job, but am wondering about time frames. Has anyone any ideas?
Thanks |

The standard answer to this question in the Middle East is... how long is a piece of string? She could be back in touch with you any time between now and never.
I have had employers who made a tentative offer the end of February and I never heard another word until late September when they expected me to fly out yesterday.
Sorry... I'd wait a week or so and try to phone or email them to *very politely* check on the progress. They don't respond well to pressure.
