At this juncture, I should have been warned, but in my zeal to work/live in a new culture, I was unwilling to pay close attention to the many negative posts on English Experts as an agency for recruiting foreign teachers.
 I have copied a letter that details what I have experienced with high levels of incompetence and lack of attention to detail. One cannot trust employment with such an agency, in any foreign country when communications are this poor to non-existent.
  Mr. Hisham Halil,
 I have now spent much time on the phone with visa offices trying to locate the work visa for me, which now I find out.....DOES NOT EXIST!
 Since signing the contract for English Experts back on December, 21, 2011, I have waiting to hear some communication from you/your office to inform me of the steps I needed to take on my end to secure the work visa. I called no less than 17 offices, and the work visa is not in Washington, DC. nor have you ever provided me with any specific information or steps I needed to take to secure it.
  I have now found out that there were many things I needed to with the Embassy of Saudi Arabia to secure the visa, and each time I would write to you to ask you, specifically, I would never get an answer. No communication at all. The visa is not any closer to me than it was back in December, all because you have never told me what I needed to do here, on my end. This has been too frustrating for me, and I now decided that:
  1. I will NOT be taking any job with English Experts in Saudi Arabia.
  2. You are INCOMPETENT. It is clear to me that you do not know what you are doing. Your communication skills are very weak (I have proof of this, and all "communications-emails, SKYPE messages, etc. ) will be sent on to the Embassy as well as the job placement sites and blogs as a warning to others in other countries to stear clear of English Experts.
 3. It is my goal to get the word out that English Experts is to be avoided, and this will make it difficult for your agency to recruit other foreigners to come there and work for English Experts.
 4. I cannot/will not put my employment life in the hands of someone there in Saudi Arabia who does not know what they are doing.
 Â
      I WILL NOT BE COMING TO SAUDI ARABIA WITH ENGLISH EXPERTS.
  You have done nothing to get me there and it is now February, and this process has gone on far too long.
