Lightbulb ramadan

just to answer the question about ramadan,it's a muslim holiday where people are fasting from dawn to sunset, and no eating or drinking in public ( indoors too ) is allowed, no matter of your origin, it applies to everyone. it's very hard to conduct full-time training during the day considering the conditions (you can eat in the privacy of your own home, but not in public places)
i suggest you get familiar with the customs of the country you want to relocate to

I think Rachel meant to ask why did they first schedule trainings in September and then change these dates for the reason being ramadan. I also thought they were holding trainings during ramadan in the previous years.

thank you lovelysmile. I sense a bit of an attitude there from yucyme which was not necessary at all. Of course I know what Ramadan is.. I didnt ask what it is, I was as you say, just surprised that would have been overlooked before and was wondering what affect it would actually have on training as i thought that behind closed doors on private premises (ie in the training centre) that eating might be fine.

I understood your question rachel, and when they told me I too was a bit confused as to why it would affect training being on or off (and I also know what ramadan is). They also have an idea of when ramadan is each year so it's funny that they would schedule training if there was the possibility it wouldn't go ahead. They did mention that it had to do with flights, and that it was difficult getting us all over for training during this time. I guess because my training was towards the end of ramadan and they would have alot of people coming over for the public holiday celebrations and feasts. And giving away lots of seats to us, instead of to paying customers probably doesn't make much sense. That was my take on it, but who knows!

And also the training starting on the 23rd August will run through ramadan, so it's not the eating in public issue that stopped the September trainings going ahead.

Still waiting on medical results.....it will be a week tomorrow. I've waited months to hear from them and I was fine, and now all of a sudden a week seems like eternity! I think I'm going crazy!

medical

guys, for anyone that has done or is doing the medical, is there a time frame or deadline that you must get them done by? eg within 4 weeks after your phonecall or by 4 weeks before training starts or something like that?

a bit worried now.

i was shortlisted for an interview earlier this year but the assessment day was cancelled. i checked my application now and the status says unsuccessful. why is that? it is because they have stopped recruitment?
