Princess Noura University English teachers?

Theres heaps of English teaching positions that need to be filled. We're about 150 teachers short. Send your application to the Princess Nora HR Department, they will be in touch with you if you qualify

This is pretty much the case with all the Saudi universities due to high turn-over.  They don't make much of an attempt to retain employees (most HR positions are filled by Saudis and they have a lot to learn).

The problem stems from a very unprofessional and badly managed HR department more than anything else. People like to be treated as human beings and it is not surprising that many, especially professionals, will not compromise their dignity for a job or pay packet.

It is time PNU first hire some decent HR people before they start recruting lecturers

Egg-ZACTLY!

(And in my experience, yours too, I am sure, MM, this problem isn't unique to PNU--it's just extremely visible there based on sheer volume of employees required.)

One of the main reasons this issue has become so visible and aware at PNU is cos the teachers involved have all been from USA who have taken a very strong attitude towards the treatment meted out to them and made sure that they were given what they were promised by way of contract or they quit. They also made sure that all their friends in Riyadh were aware of what was going on. In most other cases the expats choose not to share such info or even quit their jobs for their own, personal, reasons.

Do you have any idea how long it takes to get a response for direct hire? I interviewed with EdEx and got a response in about a week. However, I want to hold out for TeachAway whom I interviewed with also. It seemed to me that the T/A interview went well  I did want to know how long T/A takes to get back to you after the interview.  It's been almost a week since I interviewed with TeachAway.

Thanks!

You've got a lot to learn about how slowly the wheels turn with anything connected to KSA!  Sit back and relax--it's a long, grueling process!  Took me seven months to get here, from beginning to finally landing (not through Teach Away but rather a direct hire for my job).

Ditto what Alliecat said. This is peak recruiting and hiring season for university jobs---one of the busiest times of the year for recruiters and HR departments.

I'm serving Al-Jouf university as an English lecturer since 2009.Now wish to join PNU.Kindly send me an e-mail to post resume.

Hi  Muna Abdul Majeed,

Welcome to expat-blog!

Writing an introduction about yourself would be the most welcome

Thank you,

David.

I am interested in applying for English teaching position in any PRESTIGIOUS college/university of KSA. I have good ten years experience of teaching  as senior English teacher in Army Public School & College Jalal Pur Jattan Cantt Distt. Gujrat.I have been teaching Oxford and Paramount syllabus at middle level and  State provided syllabus at college level too.

At  present, I am teaching senior school and college students. This position has enabled me to provide the students with a ‘‘head start'' in mastering the basic skills of English for their best career in any field of life as English is now the need of hour. I am challenged to be creative, nurturing and most of all ,the patient.

My job in APSACS, has provided me chances to enhance myself in many fields i.e to work and guide students in Community Action Plans, School Action Plans, to Prepare myself, to Plan, to Interact and then to get Reflection of my lesson plan.I have also attended teachers' training workshops i.e SDCC (Staff Development Certificate Course) , SDDC (Staff Development Diploma Course) arranged by APSACS(Army Public Schools And Colleges System)  held on different stations which have enabled me to deliver lectures in teachers' training workshops in schools.

It is my goal to combine my range of experience with my ability to be compassionate,  enthusiastic  ,and deligent  teacher who will make a positive contribution to your institution. So if you give me a chance to perform my duties in your institute, I will leave no stone unturned for the entire satisfaction of my superiors. I would welcome an interview and hope to hear from you at your earliest convenience.
Yours truly,
Miss Nazia Firdous D/O Manzoor Hussain

Just out of curiosity, if you are interested in applying for an English teaching position in any PRESTIGIOUS college/university in KSA, then why  don't you apply to said prestigious colleges/universities instead of posting in a forum on an Expat.com?

Her profile clearly says this is her first ever post on EB, she probably doesn't know the rules of not to post the personal contact details here and you being a Senior most on Expat.com can help her...

It's not about posting contact details--it's about the fact that THIS is NOT a university employment site.  She'd have known that if she'd taken the time to read the thread, don't you think?  Since she didn't bother, there's not much I can do for her (and I suggest YOU read the thread to get a sense of what's going on here).

I am not saying you were wrong in your comment, any ways this is the habit of many on this blog and this thread that they post something with out even reading full details, which we can see above.

I just can say to ignore such posts as I am quite sure many times they will not even log back to check the response to the post.

First you said

And now you say

Make up your mind--should I help her or ignore her?!
