Hi Nordic JetSet
I have had the same problem in the past,regarding your situation,maybe you should try couple of thing.
If you are using gmail,you may have difficulties in sending the scans,so what i would advise you to do is to try sending it from yahoo mail or something similar.
Try it and see if it helps..
Best of Luck..

after the call
Hi
After the phone call................the man I spoke with told me he would forward my application to his collegues and they will contact me to set a date and place for interview/assesment day.
The questions were
- Are you 20 years or above?
- Have you an education equivalent of highschool or higher?
- Can you Swim?
- Are your English skills good?
- Why did you apply for this position with Etihad?
- How do feel about living and working in Abu Dhabi?

Thank you for answering Midadi, so, I“d have to send my online aplication, and then call them? I wouldn“t have to wait for their email answer first?, could you Please give me their phone number just in case?.
Looks like their recruitment process is a little bit more complicated than other airlines of the U.A.E. , a phone call from South America to Abhu Dabi is not cheap... , if I only write to their email to find out if they selected me or not, do you think they would answer me?, or I“d have to call them?.
Anyway, do you or anyone that has been already accepted for the recruitment day in New York could Please let me know the date of that venue?
Thanks a lot for your good wishes Midadi, I“ll be waiting for your answers, if anyone knows.

I had my assessment day at the end of October. I don't have my joining date confirmed, but i'm not actually on hold. I've just been struggling with the medicals for 1,5 months and now I'm struggling to get them through to EY

Just use a little common sense when sending your files over..
Send your files over several emails (rather than everything in one email) so its easier for their server to cope with the files if they are large in size. Put your reference number and the number of the email in the subject to make it easier for them e.g. "Medical Files for #124588 - Email 1 of 4"
Avoid sending an email over 2MB in size.
Zip your files together or change the file size/quality of each so that they are smaller. Sometimes changing the format of the file can make a big difference too.
Avoid using a crappy free webmail such (Yahoo, Hotmail etc). I'd recommend Gmail..

I'd be very interested to get more information on layovers and turnarounds too, like Timea..
I was reading through some of the old EY posts a while ago, trying to find more info on this (was unsuccessful)...
Are there some sort of 'general rules' about layovers, or particular patterns anyone has noticed.. i.e. if flights over 8 hours long will have at least a 24 hour layover etc etc?

Hi there,
some of my friends are flying fro Etihad Airways! Sometimes you even have a minimum rest of 10 hours even though you have may be done a AUH - LHR service! Sometimes żou fly to destination Etihad serves only 4 times a week like Casablanca (CMN) where you have 36 hours layover. Żou have the minimum rest of 10 hours only if you are unlucky to have a day Etihad serves the destinations two times this day! Than yiu are required to sleep and fly back to your home base AUH on the same day!
From what I have heared it is a nice mixture of rosters where you will have lots of nice destinations covering long and short layovers and even turnarounds! I think thats good so because thats it what it makes it special and exciting! I love this busy environment:-) Sometimes you think that you are flying to Manila and it will be changed on the last second where they will inform you! Its a job where you must be 100% flexible!!!!!!
I hope this helps!!!!!

Hi,
check your private messages! I sent you the contact number of Etihad! If you write them an email they wont answer you if you are not a selected candidate who have a question! They have a mess on papers and a lot to do, so dont waste your time and call them immediately! This will even show them that you are soooo interested that you even gave them the call from Bolivia! I dont think that it would be so expensive! Go to a call shop where they have lots of good offers or use Voice over IP Via internet! MSN also offers this and it is very cheap!
Good luck to you!

Min rest is actually 11 hrs.
Some overnights like Paris and FRA are about 12:30 to 14hrs. Not much time to do anything except catchup on sleep. Others can be two days.
I'm guessing you are talking about the Visa check for your work permit?
Standard stuff, bloods, X-ray etc. Nothing major.

So it seems only the cc applicants are put on hold..
Ashlea when was your final interview?
I am thinking of calling or emailing them just to ask where do i stand in the process.. Or should i just wait until their call? i dont want them to think i rush anything, but my final was 1,5 month ago and so far i've been put on hold..Would be great to know whats going on, so i can plan my life
