Thanks Afordy, at least I know others in similar situation.

Hi 458,

I did my interview in March and I had asked for abu dhabi or dubai (I heard they were most popular) and they said they would try their best. Have you had your interview yet?

Hey guys, just got word that I got a school in Abu Dabi! Anyone else receive any contact from the school regarding flight dates etc?

I interviewed in March also. Bout 4/5 weeks ago. Hmmm. Lets see how it goes.

[LadyLorr20]

Khalifa City A.. yep thats where I got too. No nothing from the representative yet, but I say she'll get in touch in a few days. Exciting!

Hey just wondering if anybody got Ruwais or has anybody worked there before??

[redman87]

Hi lfarrell91,

I too have been assigned to Ruwais. Don't know a whole lot about it. Have any guys been assigned to locations other than Ruwais? Or any anyone else been assigned to Ruwais? It seems like they have loads of places for women in Dubai/Abu Dhabi but unfortunately not a lot for lads. Maybe its just my experience.

Can't say they've been the most helpful to deal with either!!! I gave 5 locations in the UAE and Ruwais was definitely not one of them!

I'm very confused at the moment. I've got an e-mail sitting in my inbox asking me for my degree to be authenticated. My degree is from a British University. But I'm from Ireland. Do I have to go to the British or Irish Department of Foreign Affairs to get it authenticated? Anyone in this situation?

I have to send my documents to Abu Dhabi city, so I presume that's where I'll be working. I'm a man. I wanted Dubai or Sharjah for personal reasons, but I'm not sure yet if they mean to ship me off to Ruwais when they get all my documents. Ooof. Confused

[redman87]

I'd say that definitely means your based in Abu Dhabi, good for you, seems to be a great place!!! Ya they asked me for the same thing i'm not entirely sure what it means, are our degree certificates not already authenticated from the stamp etc here's what mine said

"A copy of your university certificate, first stamped by the university, then by the ministry of higher education followed by the ministry of foreign affairs and finally the copy should be stamped by the UAE embassy in Dublin."

All thats missing there is for me to get it stamped in Hogwarts by the ministry of magic or something!!! Quick question 458, is your degree teaching based? They said to me they had a lot of teachers applying more so this year.

Hi I got the same email from school in Abu Dhabi. I'm hoping that is where I'll be based, I'm assuming it is as they said the next contact we would have would be from assigned school.
I studied in a uni in Northern Ireland so I was also wondering where I should my degree attested.
They have asked for a copy of the degree to be attested and also for a transcript for the degree to be stamped by the uni? I'm just wondering if anyone knows what they mean by this?

[JezZCaa...X]

Hi all,

I got placed in Muscat, Oman after asking specifically for Dubai, Abu Dhabi or anywhere in the UAE!

Anybody else get placed in Muscat?

[458]

@Redman87: No I don't have a teaching qualification. I have a degree in science.

@Katy_B: It would be no harm to ring up the Irish DFA. Yes I'm sending a photocopy of my degree cert to my university and they'll stamp it to show that its a true copy. Sending the transcript as well. Then off to the solicitor, then off to the DFA, then off to the UAE embassy. Clockwork! Not fancying the courier cost to the UAE though. Ouch.

do you know if you have to get a solicitor to sign it? I thought at first that you did but the email that they have sent only asks that its stamped 3 times, by the uni, DFA and UAE embassy.
