HI all members
i  am new to this

I have been offered a job in saudi , through consultancy. having completed skype interview and all formalities, but i have been facing doubts listed below.

1. they have send offer letter in which they have not mentioned working hours and Weekly off .
when i talked to them to give me in written  consultancy said that this is only format of the company. i am afraid because same time co. has a policy for overtime is they dont pay overtime instead give SR 200 for compensating any overtime done in month.

Senior please guide me in this matter and how to handle this situations.

seeking guidance at earliest.

Hello I have never lived in Saudi but plan to! I do wish to advise you to not worry about the safety of you entering this overseas job without it being "legit", for the most part the job itself is no scam but you're just simply having a communication issue. You should worry more about getting all facts clear about the job such as duties and you should be comfortable to ask about the salary and work hours being that it is an international move. I advise you to do more research on this job position as I too have experienced multiple faults in communication when searching up colleges. I found answers to questions when I did extra research. For  example, in your case, try to visit the company's site.
