Does anyone here work for Sabic in Saudi? If so, how long did it take from the interview to the start date, generally speaking? I'm just curious how long the hiring process typically takes.

From my experience about 4-6 weeks. Please be very careful if you are interviewing with them as a contractor. I have been interviewed twice, been asked to review my draft contract and both times the projects were cancelled/put on hold or some other excuse. There's some dodgy people in the recruitment there.

Okay thank you so much! 4 to 6 weeks is awesome! Fingers crossed it will work out.

Thank you for your feedback!

Oh cool. Thank you for letting me know. My husband has spoken with Sabic. No news yet. But praying it ultimately leads to us moving.
