He he he.... here are my daily gossips folks! !

Sneaked into the interview room at Hilton this morning!!!... Nick told me where and when... Cheers Nick!

I was lucky enough to participate, didn't make it though! I was the only married girl (and the oldest) so I kind of know why I got out after the first "round". Quite obvious! Never mind: it's all experience to cherish!

Just in case you were in my same situation: Emirates do not provide "partner" visa for husband/wife/de facto. The only way for your partner to live in Dubai with you is by obtaining sponsorship from his/her eventual employer (or have a UAE passport of course)... no wonder quite a lot of people say goodbye after a while!

Now about the interview: there were about 28 people, most of them Australian with Lebanese, Egyptian and "Middle East countries" background / origin.
Most of the questions (as well as the group discussion) where related to living in Dubai. How is it like? What will I miss/find? Etc.

Two girls (that I know) had previous cabin crew experience (Gulf Air and ex-Ansett). They didn't make it. One of them was absolutely gorgeous. By the way, Nick was the cutest guy (my opinion) but I reckon H.R.s have no taste... Oh well, they don't deserve us anyway.

Anyone wanting to have a look at the paperwork we received during the interview is welcome to E-mail me at [email protected]. It describes working conditions/allowances and other useful stuff about company/country.

Cheers! Keep your chin up!

29 dollars parking fee for 2 and a half hours at Hilton! What a rip-off!
