Hi PPruners
I want to share my journey with all of you.
I've been trying to be cabin crew for the last 3 and half years! I was successful with Etihad in 2009, got placed in the holding pool for close to a year waiting for training dates and then I was told that I need to reapply. Didn't get in.
I tried Qatar, made it until the joining formalities (medicals etc), but was unable to join at that time. Didn't get in.
I tried Emirates for the first time last year, made until the group discussion and then got the boot. Didn't get in.
At this stage I pretty much put my flying dream in the back seat and forgot about it, moved on and focused on other things. That's until I received the sms from Emirates advising me to check my email. I was invited to attend an assessment day that I hadn't even applied to. Gave it a try and what do you know, I'm now counting down the days to my date of joining. Got in
Here's my details:
ASESSMENT DAY - 07 MAY
FINAL INTERVIEW - 08 MAY
APPROVAL IN PROGRESS - 23 MAY
YOU WILL BE CONTACTED - 25 MAY
GOLDEN CALL - 27 MAY
DATE OF JOIN - 11 JULY
To all of you guys who have been trying for a while and to those who are trying for the first time, DON'T GIVE UP! Especially if you truly believe that you have what it takes to make it. And please guys, be honest with yourselves. If you haven't made it pass the first round of all of the 10 assessment days you've been to, then maybe this is not for you. But otherwise, KEEP TRYING
Good luck to all of you and I promise to stay in touch and keep you guys updated on what life is like being an Emirates Crew Member.
See you in Dubai soon
Congratulations Honey16
