Inevitably some people will fail the selection. The fact that they will not become "valued employees" does not mean they should not be treated with respect by the company they have gone to the trouble of applying to.

Vfenext, I passed and still complaining. I don't feel great, I met guys better than me on day 1 and I didn't see them on day 4. May be they identify the slaves. If they find people who are not ready to be abslave, probably they will put them down. Like someone said,people who would fit the EK mould.

No Flyboy_SG - you met guys who TOLD you they were better than you on Day 1, but came up short for whatever reason.

There's not much delusional ego in pilots.........

Vfenext,

I may have agreed with you in the past. But now I am hearing many stories of bad, unprofessional treatment of potential new joiners throughout the process. Those successful and those not.

Its a disgraceful way to treat people. If people are concerned by the rumours they hear on this forum, this treatment from the company itself before they have even passed or failed an assessment will not sure up their confidence.

And as these people are messed around, they're not sitting doing nothing. They are passing assessments with our rivals.

Exactly BG. One guy I met had cleared Asssements with neighbour & QR, but still he wanted EK for Dubai. Once he didn't make it past day 1 he was forced to leave the Inn asap. Totally unethical. 5 year contract is too long, whereas rest of the world offers 3.

I do not care about what vfenext wrote , he is free to do so ! Yes I do not passed but my wife´s cousin did it 10 years ago and He is searching in china , why ??? Just read some posts before ...exactly what is written here he told me as a collegue and relative , his friend that I met in a costa cafe too, by the way he is leaving dxb in 40 days ! I was not the only one having trouble returning home , each one of the 14 that do not passed day 1 all we haved the same problem !!! really I came just for the dream of the heavy jet , staying here listening to all the riders speaking the same problems it gives to my a master caution that really something is happening here ! vfenext if you want my name to tell to HR i can give you , pm me ! probably You can get and upgrade hr bżżlls sucker or probably you are the ones who monitors this forum , because one of the questions of the interview is What do you know about pprune ? or have You read pprune ? Now I can tell the thruth is in pprune , thank you texas gore for your support , if somebody wants to go pm I have some notes about the assestment !

A decade ago I seem to recall Pprune was mentioned in my interview. Then of course most of the posts were positive.
