Have they managed to contact all your references by email? One of mine was late with returning theirs, and that added an extra week to the whole process.

they have only talked on the phone with one of my references as my boss was not at work when they called...they said they would call the next day but never did and I even sent them her cell phone number too....I figured since I already got the email that they had decided it was enough with one....but maybe not..... othing's happening though....

Normally they need reference letters and they sent special reference checks to the references you named! They contacted mine and asked them to fill out an attachment to their email and to return it! AFter my boss had done this they sent me the info that I have to undergo the security clearance and that the HR will call me!
If you are not sure give them a call! Sometimes it takes a long time but you always have to remember them as they are very very busy with recruiting!
Good luck + Cu in ABuDhabi!

Today its been 2 weeks since I got the email saying they were processing all the necessarry clearances and approvals...yesterday I sent one of the recruiters an email and today I got a reply saying that someone from HR is gonna contact me soon in order to start the process of all the necessarry clearnaces and approvals....what does this mean?
I thought they would be doing that on their own and then contact me to start my medicals....getting slightly confused now..

Etihad Flighty
Hey guys, I've been working for Etihad for just over a year now. I'm truely loving the job & the airline. Roster's have improved, layover's are great & the salary is one of the best in the gulf. Abu dhabi is a beautiful city and is very cheap to live in. Crew accomadation is new & in great locations. I've been home back to brisbane every 2 months since I finished training on either trips or days off. The airline plan to buy at least 50 more Jet's in the next 12 months. Expect a load more recruitment.

A few little questions! Please help!
Just a few Questions I hope I can get some answers to....
With regards to living arrangments, is it possible to request to live with a
friend if you both got the job? If so, how likely is it? (both males)
Is it possible to get married rosters at all or at least the same days off?
What does the medical entail? Does this have to be completed by yourself or by your own doctor?
Any answers to these questions would be much appreciated!!

Hi I am happy for all those who are loving Etihad and those who will join soon, me among them:-)
If you are successful at the Assessment Day they will give you 4 papers about the medicals that need to be fille dout by your doctor! There is the Medical history on the first page, the whole investigations, eyesight test, hearing etc. on the second page, the 3rd is coveerd by the vaccaniations and the last one is for your dentist! They doctor has to fill it out and if you are not able to complete them all you can call the HR and ask if it is possibile to do them in AbuDhabi but on the mediclas there is clearly stated that if you do not meet the minimum standards required you will not be employed with Etihad and will be expected to leave the UAE immediately. hope that helps!

Yes it is possible to request to live with a friend or batch mate. You will most probley be living in a hotel for the first 3 months. Hotel's are not to bad at all.
Married roster's are NOT possible YET. But you can request to buddy flight with someone on trips. You can also request the same days off together.
I live with my partner and we do this all the time.
Etihad are revamping there whole system. In the next 18 months or sooner everything will be online. You'll be able to swap, offload flights & pick up extra flights all from home. Also be able to partner up rosters & build your own roster. Like emirates.
Medical as above. You should get your medical done at home. I know it cost's alot but at least you have peace of mind knowing your not going to be rejected when you arrive here.
Hope that helped. Cheers
