Rejoining EK

I am extremely interested in rejoining Emirates. I left in April 2010 after 2 full years with a clean record.

If anyone knows any info, I would really appreciate it if you could let me know the process and also the chances of getting back in.

Thanks

Hi,

I am considering applying to work for Emirates as cabin crew, and was wondering if any current employees could tell me a bit about how it was moving to Dubai? I find the idea of moving from the UK to Dubai really exciting, but also quite daunting, so just wondered what other peoples experiences were, did you live with other new employees, are the other members of the crew already out there friendly etc?

Thank you so much
Sophie

Lero4ka I believe you have to be 21 years old at the date of joining Emirates, which is the date when you will start the employment with the company. However, if you have any doubts, I think its not a bad idea to email them and verify if you can attend an open day. All the Best in your career!

Ss and MissMEL

MissMEL, you can rejoin any time if you finished your probation period and if you had a clean record... You can e-mail the ccsc and ask for a rejoiner form, easy! You pretty much skip the whole process as far as I remember from what a friend told me!

SS, if you are interested you can read my blog, I wrote about everything (joining, training, flying, living in Dubai etc.) You can find it under selinastories.wordpress, hope it helps and gives you some insight!

Casual photos

So the standards for casual photos just changed, as if I wasn't confused enough already.

"2 OR MORE CASUAL PHOTOS - OUTDOORS ON JEANS AND T-SHIRT. (Ladies, pin the back for better fitting). Must face the camera, hair down, heels. No running shoes."

Well... that doesn't look very casual to me. I'm really considering looking for a professional photographer to take these photos.
Does anyone know if on both photos I have to be standing up? Thanks

Delivery constraints? Not sure what you mean by that, there's 8 more to coe by January.

QF partnership does not mean that EK will reduce flights, only that EK can sell tickets on QF and vice versa. It's a standard condeshare agreement. The only thing changing is, as you said, the routing of the QF Australia-LHR sectors going via DXB instead of SIN.

Could be that they have a lot of Aussies on the books already, EK like to even out the nationalities so if there are getting to be lots of one group they will hire into the other groups until the numbers equalise. Very normal for them and has been going on for years. They want to keep a good mix of crew from all over, not to be too dominated by one or the other nationality.

You don't need a passport until you get the Golden Call. Like they say, you'll have plenty of time to get it after you're approved.

BA to EK for promotion prospects?

Thinking of changing from BA to Emirates as promotion prospects on BA WW are very limited Anybody know how long it takes to get SFS/PSR at Emirates after joining? Cheers.

Guys, I want to know if I apply directly at the EK HQ, will they still accept me during the OD even if I can't speak and write Arabic?

I think there are a number of factors that influence where Emirates hold their open days. If there is a lot of interest online (applicants applying on Emirates Career website) then they are likey to hold an open day there. In the case of Melbourne, maybe there has been little interest in previous months and hence the company has not scheduled an open day.

I have noticed a big recruitment drive in Germany also which could contribute to fewer assessment days in other parts of the world as recruitment teams are tied up there.

I'm sure there will be another open day in Melbourne soon. I very much doubt a QF/EK code share agreement would impact on recruitment in Australia. If anything we may see a recruitment drive in the coming moths as EK tries to 'woo' Australian travelers

Attending An OD In A Different Country

Hi guys!

I'm wondering if it's alright to attend an OD in a different country, say in the U.S. perhaps? I'm a Filipino and Emirates hasn't held an OD here since 2009. I heard they already have too many Filipino crew. So I'm contemplating whether they would still accept me, given the fact that I'm not a U.S. citizen. I can't apply in countries near home since most of them require full fluency in specific languages.

@ Captain Bundy: Good luck with that haha.

@ idreamtofly: If it hasn't changed over the past few months, you have to be an arabic speaker if you apply directly in Dubai.

@ Scottish - Your looking at somewhere between 3-5 years for SFS and longer for PUR if your very good and lucky.

@ Mel - You can reapply but I would email your old CCM (if they are still there) usually the reapplication time is only up until 1 year.

@ Sesame - They're not prejudiced against americans so yes they do hire yanks.
