Hi Saudimad

Is that with KSU in Riyadh? I have been offered a contract by Bell to work in the foundation program in KSU ..the contract was supposed to start september 1st but due to the delay in visa issue I will start some time after Eid. Are you already living in Saudi?

Nope i'm not in saudi. I'm in the same position as you. I should start sometime after Eid. I was hoping somebody who has already joined and was in Saudi would reply but nothing so far!!

Word is that they are still looking for teachers, lots of them. Will they be any better or worse than Al-Falak or Al-Rajhi, or any of the other contractors who provide cleaners, menial labourers and teachers for Saudi educational institutions ?

Hi there,

My understanding is that Bell Int. is in charge of the new foundation year programme of KSU. Their partner in Saudi is Obeikan Research and dvpt. I believe they do not provide working visa as such but only business visas. Bell has a fairly good reputation, so has KSU. As for Obeikan...
