I went for an Emirates interview about 6 years ago. On the 1st day we had to be weighed and measured; have skin checked under natural light; behind our ears checked; legs and arms checked for hairs, scars, birthmarks etc; & walk down a corridor!!! I was told i was underweight for my height (8st, 5ft 6in) but i told them i had recently lost weight (lie). At the 2nd stage I had to justify not wearing 2 inch heels and red lipstick, told I would be more suseptible to illness and be unable to work longhaul flights because of my weight!!
Got a job soon after with a domestic carrier and have been there ever since.
I'm sure thing have changed over the years. GOOD LUCK!
Ps Any one had a similar experience?
