    I have the same questions! I am wondering though if we have missed the interview window because in other discussion threads people are mentioning interviews in NY and Georgia ten days ago. If this is true I am so disappointed! I just saw the posting for "new graduates" in early February and was thrilled to apply... it just took a couple weeks to get everything in order. But perhaps we're all talking about different positions? If the "new grads" posting wasn't published until early February and they've already finished interviews that seems incredibly fast. I have my heart set on teaching in the Middle East! I hope I haven't already missed my chance for this application cycle...

    Also, if I update materials within my TeachAway profile (cover letter, references) will these things be updated within my pending application as well? In real time? If not, is there a way to apply again in order to update it?

    Thank you for any insight you can offer! I am new to TeachAway and this is the first job I have applied for though you.

    Denise and Verlinda,

    Thanks for your questions. Hopefully these points clarify :

    - All positions have different start dates - check the specific posting to see its start date.
    - Only some positions have in-person interviews.
    - Phone or Skype interviews may happen for some interviews. Pre-screening phone calls are also common.
    - Some in-person interviews for jobs in the UAE have occurred, but more are upcoming.

    @Denise: What job did you apply for? I can grab more info! :)

    Brett
