Upon my first interview with Kevin, I clearly stated that I would not consider going into a country where religious freedom is not recognized and celebrated. You then informed me that this would limit my options but that it was my right and privilidge to select preferences and prefer countries such as the UAE and Japan etc.
Nadine Tyro then acquired an interview for me with a school in Oman. I was interviewed and they offered me the position. I reached out to Nadine to inform her that I would not accept the position based on three reasons.
The first of which being that the position was for an English grade four upwards teacher, a position for which I am not qualified to teach as I am a Foundation Phase teacher.
The second reason being that they lodging they offered was only for myself and their recommendation was that they husband only join me after a year.
The LAST reason I gave was that I have concerns regarding the freedom of religion within the country for Christians.
Nadine’s only response upon all my concerns was to attack my personal convictions as a Christian and accuse me of being “unChristian” in relating these concerns to her. Again, these were concerns I had expressed within my FIRT interview with TeachAway and had being assured that these were my own preferences and that as a company you made allowances for these.
I am utterly disgusted in the manner in which she handled this. Her absolute lack of respect for my preference, my religious orientation and her disregard for ALL my stipulated concerns is appalling.
I relayed this to her and suggested she refer me to another recruiter, as she is clearly unable to conduct herself in an unbiased manner. She then informed me she would be deleting my profile as stated she “could not recommend me to work overseas with compassions and tolerance”.
I reiterated that her emails were insulting and slanderous offered to forward all our communications and I insisted upon this being handled speedily and my profile being restored. I also insisted upon an apology from Nadine herself.
I received no communication from them.
