Talking Hi everybody ^^

Hi everyone, this is my first post so please let me tell you about my situation a little bit.
I've attended an OD for CC, Emirates, on 16th Feb in Wellington not long ago. Got though to the FI and everything went very well.I've been waiting for phone calls for nearly 3 weeks now. I am a bit anxious about the results >u<".... lol... I just wanna share my story with you guys. I'll keep you guys updated if anything comes up . Tata for now~

P.S. Would love to know if there's anyone who have attended an OD in NZ recently as well? Cheers~

patience is the key with emirates. when you finally get to Dubai and see how everything is run you will see why they take so long to get back to you. My best friend had to actually call them herself and ask if she got thru after about 6 weeks and they checked and said oh yes, you have sorry we just forgot to call you. Also, anyone whos in training or new at the moment, are they letting you choose 380 or allocating it?

Thanks alot for your unique infos! I have a question; Im getting to OD at another city here, I booked a hotel for 1 night including the night of the OD starts(hotel is expensive :S)..Do you know how long would OD take?including FI? I got that after FI (usually the day after the starting of OD) , 3-4 weeks waiting takes place till the golden call and medical test stuff starts after that call which has to be finished in 2 weeks prior to DOJ..

I would really pleased if you can inform me about that..Thanks!

Regarding to the question of why u wanna join EK?

You will need to do some research on the company, and to show why u think EK has been successful, and how great it is to be able to work for them. It shows the interviewer u are interested and know about the company, thus u may like to tell them how ur skills and experience can contribute to the success of the company.

Get prepared, smile a lot..and show positive Body language all the time..also make sure u ask question about the company/policy if there is a Q&A session.
we are having as many as 100 new ppl coming each week, in order to get ready for the A380s and other new Aircrafts..so it is indeed the best cahnce to get in. good luck!

EK application

How do I apply for an assessment day with EK?? I already applied online and was prepared to go to the open day in Copenhagen but the open day has been postponed.. I would now like to go to an assessment day in either London or Manchester. How do I get an invitation and show them that I would like to go to an assessment day even if it is not in my country?

This morning I got an email confirming me that they received my document and will get back to me shortly...and I hope it is gonna be really shortly therefore I could resign on time to give 1 month of notice period. My DOJ is April 18...so I am getting nervious. Anyone who had gone through this process, please advise if they gave you a call or emailed you regarding to the final approval? Mucha appreciated!

Hi, on 5th april there will be a emirates vacancy in my city.
Do I have to fill the form on-line before or can I simply go to the hotel with my cv, passaport and photos?

Hi

If you are going to an assessment day you should wear business attire - suite and tie. But most importantly wear a warm smile.
The size of the foto at this stage is not so important - any passport size will be fine I think.
The photo size instructions I was given for the final interview were.
- Full length photo: 15cm x 10cm
- Passport size photo: 4,5cm x 3,5cm
I was instructed that I should wear a suite and tie in the photos.

I hope this helps you and others.

REAPPLYING after..11 months??!!

HI Guys!!

this is my first post! Last year I went to another country just in order to attend an OD and I had a final interview (it was in May). Unfortunately I didn't make it through, I received a "No thanx, maybe next time" email, and I was told that I couldn't reapply after a period of 1 year!

The thing is, Emirates is conducting an OD in my HOME COUNTRY!...IN MY CITY in April! As you can see the difference is just 1 month!! Can hardly believe it!!
I think I wont be able to travel to another country this year (c'mon I'd love to join Emirates but I'm not rich!!) so this is maybe my only chance! I just don't know what to do.

Any advise?? for said 1 year, does it really mean 1 year(12 months?..365 days?) Do you think I can attend this OD?

HELP PLEASE!!!

Post I've received my GOLDEN CALL today~!!

Hi everybody, I just wanna drop in and say that I have finally received my golden call today~!! I was so shocked when I saw the oversea number appeared on my cell phone. It was the most exciting moment in my life~!
My Day of Joining is 18th April >u<, so excited~!! In here I'd just like to thank leemarlon , thanks for all your help and support. I also realized that your DOJ is the same as mine!!! Might see you there ~!!! Now I'd have to get on with my medical check as soon as possible since I only have a month to get everything sorted before my DOJ. This is it from me for now and all the best for those who's attending an OD. Give the best you can because it is all worth it ~ Good luck~

Final Approval!!

Hi Guys!!!

I have just read this entire thread and I feel good to know others have had to wait for their final approvals a bit longer than expected. I am leaving on the 4th April and sent my medicals in over 3 weeks ago. I emailed them and have tried to call but it goes straight to message bank - I am assuming from what I have read it is totally normal and I should expect it soon??????

The wait is horrible! I just want that definate - 'Your going to Dubai!!!' feeling!

Anyone else leaving 4th April? Or having the same deliemas???

Thanks!
