Anybody happen to know anything about this place? It looks like quite a substantial institution from their website. What's life like in Istanbul? I'm pretty much totally ignorant about Turkey.

No mention of compensation package. What is usual in Turkey? I haven't been looking there at all.

Oh man, this is a scam. Crying or Very sad I wonder if Maltepe uni even exists. They offered me 11,000 GREAT BRITAIN POUNDS a month! Shocked Without so much as a phone interview. Of course the visa fee is 1200 pounds. Rolling Eyes They're so dumb they even left the last victim's name of the contract instead of typing in mine. I suppose the uni is for real, and this gang is just using their name.

Maltepe is real but all that other info such as pay and fee for the Visa sounds real bogus. As far as I know, any employer is supposed to get the work Visa for the employee. But, what kind of visa is this ? Sad Sounds kinda like a scam.
