Emirates (EK) Interview - all you need to know about it (threads merged)

[Apgrau]

Short..listed??

Out of the guys who are going to the MAY interviews with EK,
1) how long ago did you get the call and
2) how long before that, were you shortlisted for??

Also, any of you who have already been there, done that, did you get any help from preparation software (like SkyTest etc.)?
Does it help or is it a waste of money?

Please PM if you dont wanna post answers here!

Thanks in advance!
