I have a friend who is going for an job interview for posts in Saudi-Arabia. What type of questions would he most likely have to face? He's a South African, and he has 20 years of teaching experience, including 7 as vice principal of different schools.
PLEASE, I would really appreciate informative answers - I'm not in the mood for nonsense answers.
Thanks for your help. I'm grateful!

I have heard that it is good to be Moslem which makes a lot of sense. What I was supprised to learn from a couple of guys that have taught in Saudi is that you are better thought of if you say you are at least Jewish or Christian rather than Bhuddist, Hindi, or somesuch. I guess the idea is that if you are Christian or a Jew, at least you have the concept of One God or even that you worship the same God.
From what I've heard they are hard up for teachers/administrators in all the Middle East right now...also not supprising. I would guess he will a shoe-in with that much experience if he is going for a school admin job or teaching.
You might want to say what kind of gig he is looking to get...what field; engineering, teaching basket weaving, principal of a grade school, unversity teacher of English, ???
