thanks Leito and Jessmin!
Jessmin, the reason why I'm not attending any open days within the region is because I'm currently working as a crew and have difficulties swopping for flights, changing flights yadda yadda. Couldn't make it to any of the open days in Malaysia or Bangkok. The only days I can make it is when they are having open days in Australia or Europe. So I thought I might as well give it a shot trying out for the assessment day in Dubai since I can get discounted tickets (which is really cheap compared to the full fare). I admit that I am that desperate to try to land myself a job in the middle east.
