Also be aware that the Hajj break is coming up. Universities, government offices, and some businesses will close from mid-Oct until around the beginning of November.

I am curious as to what happens to the teachers PNU decide dont meet their requirements, are they sent home or found a job elsewhere? If the teachers start classes then PNU fire them likewise are they sent home or found a job elsewhere?

Gems don't forget that they can fire you for whatever reasons during your probation period, which lasts for approximately 2 or 3 months. The employers are not required to say why they do not want you to continue.

I think that's missing the point. The point is that this usually doesn't happen because employers are usually willing to spend 10 minutes on Skype to interview you first.

Dear cairanya,

Do teachers hired through recruiters/contractors get interviewed by their real employers much on Skype?

Regards,
John
