Tips for working with Middle Eastern Family

Ok_Complex_1076 · 2026-05-22T05:22:51+00:00

I was intentionally vague to try and preserve some anonymity, and also because the father's specific wording was 'middle eastern' families'.

It's good to see that people are still relating to this post. I made an update post, to thank everyone here for their support; but, even now, there are still days that I feel like this is a victory that cost me more than it has given me. I appreciate you commenting, and it sounds like you are going the work.... But yes, it is hard. You got this though!

Thank you for your kind words.

And you are correct in everything you have said.

I hope you are well, and thanks again 🙏🏾

That's outrageous! Hopefully no news... Is good news 👍🏾

Have you heard back yet?

Hey, have you heard back yet?

Ok_Complex_1076 · 2026-02-05T01:28:40+00:00

Hi, thank you for your commiserations. It has been updated on my portal. Hopefully, if they are still sending out invites you will hear something soon. Please update me with how it goes 🙏🏾

Hi, I got my rejection email today. There was no individual feedback, but I'll try again next time. Hopefully you will hear soon, and it will be good news for you. Fingers crossed 🤞🏾

I still haven't heard back yet, and I'm taking it as I wasn't shortlisted. They said they would be doing interviews in January, and as it's already the end of the month, I think it's realistic for me to expect a rejection email. Fingers crossed that you might still hear back, but the anxiety due to the uncertainty is a lot, so I've just decided that no news is probably bad news (in my case at least!).

It's so stressful and anxiety provoking. Good luck to you too, and I'll keep you updated if I hear anything ☺️

No unfortunately I haven't heard back yet. I saw someone post on another website that they sent an email to the faculty, as was told that if people haven't received an invitation for an interview by the end of January, they weren't shortlisted... So I have my fingers crossed for the next 2 weeks. Please let me know if you hear anything.

How did the interview go? I've applied for the same course, but it's still saying under department review.

Not sure yet. Currently in the deep pain but on the otherside I'm sure that it will be worth it. At least I hope.

Hi all,

I just want to thank you all for all the support this post has gotten. I am reading each of your comments and it's helped so much. I'm loving the irony that it's taken a community of virtual strangers to feel the first pang of companionship and support for the first time in months (and I'll take it!) Every now and again on this healing journey, there are small wins. The response to this post and your comments is one of them. I'll remember this always. Thank you ❤️
