Hi All
I have spent a while going through the various posts for jobs in Saudi.
I have weighed up the pros/cons and am considering going over.
Interviews are pending and I am just wondering if there are any ESSENTIAL things that I need to clarify before moving forward / any 'warning bells' that I should be aware of during the interview.

Sorry if this seems like a stupid post but I've never signed a contract before arrival, and I want to be able to make as informed a decision as I can.

Thanks in advance

Hard to say since you haven't provided any info about the employer, location, salary/benefits, and your qualifications.

Sorry, wasn't sure how much info to give. I am experienced with a degree and Celta, but don't have an MA.


The position will be @ PNU (I am aware that there is a stark difference between direct / indirect hire)

recruiters that I have been in touch with:
Auckland
SIST-Sunderland
Additional Resources Ltd

Hope this is a little less vague.

There are plenty of recent threads/posts about PNU. Either browse through this forum again or do a specific search to determine what crucial questions you need to ask during your interview. In other words, if you don't find a suitable answer to visa/work/quality of life issues that are important to you posted here, then that's something you'll want to bring up with the interviewer. Otherwise, we can only guess about what you want clarification on.
