Could anybody advise me what is the best way to apply for any Engineering position at any Middle- Eastern carriers (Emirates, Etihad, Qatar ….)
I am experienced Airline/Aviation Engineer with USA and Canadian passport. I am looking for Engineering position in any middle east Airlines (Dubai, Abu Dhabi . . .)
I possess following credentials.


Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace
Professional Engineer (P.Eng.)
Boeing Engineering Material Review Board (MRB) Authority
FAA Airman Certificate as Repairmen
Boeing Structural Repair for Engineers Training (Scored 96% on exam)
Airbus A320 Line Maintenance Training (Scored 96% on exam)
Substantial (five years) experience as Structure/Systems Engineer on A320 fleet.
Lead Configuration Engineer - B747-400 fleet configuration into M&E system (Trax)
Blended winglet retrofit program on Boeing 7-series followed 747-400 Boeing passenger—to-freighter conversion


Application process for (example Emirates) requires EASA66 license. Is FAA license accepted and if not what is the process to convert FAA license into EASA66????
Any advice on application process for Engineering position with Middle-Eastern carriers (Emirates, Etihad, Qatar….) would be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to contact via forum or my personal e-mail [email protected] ([email protected])
Thank you!!!!

Online applications only with EK . Have a look at vacancies and apply for something that matches your qualifications. You cant convert FAA to EASA the same as you cant the other way round. You'll have to do all the study and exams. Might be worth looking at structures/tech services and see what they say, good luck !

For emirates it's an online application. Emirates Group Careers (http://www.emiratesgroupcareers.com/english/)
It's a bit lengthy process. But, you need to do it once. Keep your reference number and quite that for future applications.

In dubai you need GCAA license. I am not sure about FAA but With easa license holder with signing experience gets exemptions for GCAA.

Hope this helps :)
