I was contacted by Al falak, under Saudi Aramco.. The career is promising and very exciting...but right now I'm in the stage of waiting for the offer letter (passed all the interviews and exams), I'm a bachelor. The position being offered is in I.T. Department in Aramco and Workplace is Dharhan. I'd like to ask if there's anyone here who can tell me about Al-falak and what is it like to be a contractor from Al falak (accommodation, salary, etc) under Saudi Aramco..

(Another minor question): will they house me inside Aramco compound or outside?

Note: I haven't asked Al-falak about these questions yet, although the one from Al-falak who is assisting me is a good person and very kind to me, but I've been reading some articles about "being told but is not what's actually happening" so I kind of prefer opinions from those who are "been there and done that" sort of people..

Any feedback/comments is much much appreciated...

No, They wont house you inside the ARAMCO compound. Also Al Falak and JAL are the man manpower suppliers to ARAMCo.

Ok now that am finally here let me answer my own question, al falak will just guide you to your work after you're arival, they will process all paper works needed so that you can start your job asap. they will not house you in the compound you will have to take care of your accommodation for yourself, but rest assured they'll pay you enough when your salary comes, the only problem is that you must have a bring cash with you maybe 1.3k to 2k sr is enough so you can manage your expenses at first, they may provide you with cash advance, but all these are stated in the contract and their handbook.
