He said that in relation to his "last job", so how is it a prophecy.

It takes only a few days at a new job to learn everybody's degrees (or lack thereof).

Just ignore him, it's the best thing to do and then he'll go and play somewhere else like a small child who has no friends. Where I come from we call people like that a 'Billy no mates.'

Where you come from, �Billy no mates�, was in wheelchair, that�s why he had no friends.
But, it seems you are like a big child who run away from replying to my posts. And then start to cry in front of his friends, and saying �I am the best�.!

Where I come from we call people like that 'a psychotic bullying child'.

^^ Smile

Anyway, I have some news.

I was interviewed this morning from Khobar, by a City University professor, who is in Khobar to help them set up the program.

He was very nice and informative, and listened to my answers. At the end, he said the ultimate decision would be up to the HR department, but that he would recommend me! Very Happy

Some info:

1) They expect to have 25-50 students in September, so just 1-2 classes, as the permission from the Ministry came late, and recruiting (for students) just started in June
2) Ultimately they want to have about 200 students.
3) As the Saad Group already has a school in Khobar, and the school has a vacant 3rd floor, classes will be held there, and students and instructors will have access to all the school's facilities, which is pretty cool!
4) The syllabus would be approximately the A-Level syllabus, and will be tailored so that students passing the program can smoothly transition into City University.
5) The interviewer was not given any idea about salaries.

I was told to expect a call from the HR department within a week.
