I was half asleep at the time, but I believe somewhere in the Emirates wannabes thread I read something about people having done the medicals already and then being told they've stopped recruiting. That's really gotta be annoying wasting all the money and time, being told to leave your job etc...I wonder if they will keep these people for later, or if they'll have to go through the whole recruitment process again?
EDIT: Just read the wannabes thread again, and yes, it seems a lot of offers have been withdrawn, even after the medicals have been done, and yes, it looks as though they'll have to go through the whole process again. That's horrible. Feel sorry for these people.
