The change in PMU Recruitment probably not hearsay. The Recruiting Agency is called Moda out of Khobar (moda.com.sa). I heard that the Rector, Acting Director of HR, Associate Director of Students, and Dean of College of Information Technology are all partners in the Agency. So they get a cut of the Agency profits, cut of the recruitment fee and who knows whatelse.

After contacting former colleagues in KSA about PMU after I got a job offer, I wouldn't waste my time. The rumors are that there is only one Westerner left in the Administration and they want him out and regardless of what they say in the interview about American standards and accreditation, the locals consider it a third rate university and going downhill fast.

Yes, and when you don't get paid, your visas get messed up, and when you get screwed in general, they will send you to deal with the recruiters, which are in fact them. Cozy.

DON'T TAKE A JOB AT PMU EVEN IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT. THE PLACE IS ALL LEVELS OF HELL COMBINED.
