THIS IS FOR DASHPILOT:
Emirates is very clear & quite picky about their requirements, unless I misunderstood your post; you do not meet the minimum requirements stated for FO. Here's a copy from their site:
Requirements for Position of First Officer - A330/A340 and B777
  • A minimum of 4,000 hours total flying time
  • A minimum of 2,000 hours multi-crew, multi-engined jet aircraft experience
  • ICAO ATPL
  • English language fluency (written and verbal comprehension)
  • Experience commensurate with age
  • Type rated would be advantageous
Short of our Minimum Hours Requirement?
Due to high levels of interest expressed by candidates who are close to our minimum hours requirements, we are pleased to announce that we will now accept and review applications from candidates for First Officer positions who do not yet meet our published minimum hours requirements.
Candidates who are up to 500 hours below total and/or multi-engine jet hours are invited to submit their applications and may be offered the opportunity to attend a selection programme in Dubai. Successful candidates must, however, meet published minimum hours requirements prior to joining.



Due to the airline indrustry problems worldwide, Emirates is receiving many applicants that do meet and exceed the minimum requirements, and selecting to contact only those top applicatants. They want the applicants/candidates to be very prepared; so you may not want to hurt your chances of being selected in the future, once you have the requested experience, good luck!!
