My husband had a interview on 6/26/13 and haven't heard from them since then. Recruiter told him by email that they had the biggest religious holiday so please be patient. I saw other people's timelines and most of people get offer within a month. We are worry about a little bit. Is anybody in a same situation like us? He applied for medical field.

Yes, your husband's timeline is normal. please do a search on the forum on "Timeline". You can read the very varied timespans between interview and hearing back with an offer. Plus all the other steps in the hiring process.
The month of Ramadan has come to an end and the Eid Holiday is over. People who have been traveling will be coming back to work either now or as the start of school gets closer, depending if they are on repat vacation or just went out for the Eid.

Nothing happens during Ramadon & Eid period in Saudi Arabia. Is the Eid holiday officially over for Aramco ?

aspendoc,
I don't want to imply that things are perfect at Saudi Aramco or in the Kingdom, but your statement is grossly inaccurate.
We had two new hires join in the past month and both had their iqamas (residence permits) and multiple exit/re-entry visas within two weeks.

Thank you for the info. We just have to wait patiently.

Sorry, it seems my statement came as too strong and absolute. What I meant to say was that things slow down considerably during Ramadan. Thanks for your post.
