Hi,
I applied to an ESL job in Dubai that was posted on the esljobs.com forum by an eponymous recruiter/company named Hassan Mustafa ([email protected]). It seems to be for the Madres Al Ghad ESL schools in Dubai. I was trying to Google for it and couldn't find much information except for a blog article and another unreliable note. There seems to be no website or contact information posted except for lots of ads in several job boards.


I was sent an e-mail with a document requesting for information about my degrees, jobs, etc. As I am filling it out, it just seems to be laid out very unprofessionally. Just an MS-Word document with basic fields, almost requiring my entire academic/professional history.


I just somehow find it fishy. Any information from the ESL community, especially from teachers in the UAE/Dubai, would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks a lot for the help,
Sudharsan SN

Oh, was it? Thanks for the information. Can you please give me the link to that discussion thread or just about the scam? Thanks
