Hello,

I am a single female moving to Riyadh this summer as an ESL Instructor for ICEAT. I would really appreciate reading about/hearing from people currently living/working in KSA. Also, any experiences/information on working for ICEAT would be very helpful.

Thanks Very Happy

I'm a single female but no longer living in KSA. However, if you do an Internet search using single expat women saudi arabia, there are some very good websites that are sure to answer your questions about KSA.

As for ICEAT, you didn't mention which university you'd be at.

To the poster, I'm assuming, you're going to be with KSU, as this is ICEATS major contract. It's a good company. On the males side, anyway. I don't know about the female section, other than pay is on time.

All the best.

I just realised that thread about ICEAT is perhaps a little outdated. Hopefully someone will be able to give you some news on the females campus, 'cause as far as the male side goes, it's a good company to work for and they do have a good reputation.. and the teachers aren't walking around with sad faces (as one of the posts in the thread suggests). Also, even the people who used to work for ICEAT and didn't like it at first, now admit that it's a reliable company to work for.
