It was online, done through SKYPE, complete with visuals. There were three people present. After the introduction, they asked me about my qualifications, etc. They took turns in asking me questions, and would leave long pauses, urging me to fill in the silence. The interview was concluded and they could not tell me immediately if I had the job or not. Two days later I got the email that my application was successful.

It was SKYPE interview which lasted about 1/2 hour. I was asked about my varied work and educational background in relation to English teaching. Sometimes these recruiters cannot imagine that a person can do more than one thing well and have multiple interests. I was asked about my experience abroad, the TEFL course I took in 2006, and what my expectations were about living in Saudi Arabia, and knowledge of the culture.
