Hi Pitchi,
I am confused you went to an open day last Sunday? but the assessment is on March 28. Ahh I see you guys have open house in Brazil because over here we don't have open house only assessment day we didn't have to go through the agency.
After the final interview they told us we will hear from them in a week in my case it'll be the end of this week.
Good luck to you!!! Prepare, but make sure to be yourself and just relax they are very nice people nothing to worry.

Hey everyone,
Just in case you were wondering, EY (unlike EK) send you a thanks but no thanks letter. I got mine today, so just wanted to wish everyone who is going to the MEL days the best of luck, and if you get through- it is a great job and totally worth all the effort! For now, I'm stuck in short haul- but will keep trying and hope to see some of you over there one day...

Hello, DXB_Fido
Same thing happened to me,
I was shortlisted almost right away, and then was invited to assesment day which was soon coming up in NYC (feb.8th 2009)
By the way, I passed all stages, I am soooo happy
I will be happy to help if anybody has more questions,as far as the assesment experience.
I think they will invite you once they have assesment day in your area.
As far as the invitation, I had about a week to get ready.
First they send you the email where they are asking you to confirm whether or not you will attend in case you are invited.
Once you confirm that, they invite you when the location of assesment day is determined.
I guess anything is possible with these assesments so I wish you luck.
I am sure they post interview dates on the website.
The recruiters are "warm",beautiful and super-nice and will answer all your questions and treat you with respect.
They also make you feel welcomed.
Hope that answers your questions.
Oh, and one more thing, you will have to reach 214 cm.
The rest, just relax, take a deep breath and be your natural self.

The medicals are done before you leave for AUH, unless EY want you there as soon as, then you get to do them over there. All still paid by yourself!
I am sure we will meet in AUH. Good luck and all the best to you too!!

Sydney AD
Hey did anyone get the invitation to the A-day at SYD on 5th March?
I m just wondering if they are still holding the selection, since we all know the aviation industry is kinda in dire straits now (look at EK!!)

hello guys, now that jzmn59 touched on that subject it made me think about it too. has anyone from EY heard anything about such things in the company? I mean, EK has cancelled all assess days around the globe and has withdrawn applications of people that had already gone through with medicals! not 1 or 2 but it seems like a lot of them... 
so thats why I didnt get called! 
that's what I'd like to belive.. 
on the other hand I can say that all I've read about EY are good news, there are quite a few new routes, to sao paulo to come apparently too!! and they've also increased the number of flights to quite a few destinations, which means theyll need to hire people (us).
Let's hope so!

EY vs EK
For those who know or have experienced the EY selection, do you think they select people based on a stricter/less-strict process as compared to EK?
Do they hire "as many as they deem fit" just like EK too? Or is there actually a quota?
You know what's the worse thing?
That would be EY going on with their A-days as per normal (giving out the false impression that things are okay with them) but finally resorting to withdrawing their offers and going on a recruitment hiatus just like EK now, making all the prospective candidates go through medicals and stuff all over AGAIN.
Oh god... I can't even begin to imagine. So I rather be disappointed now and KNOW than to go through everything and then be let down. This freaking crisis is such a pain. -_-"

not shortlisted
Hi everyone,
i am currently working as cabin crew, about to turn 21 years of age and meet all the requirements for the job.
A few weeks ago i applied to attend an open day in Melbourne on the 7th March and just today i got a reply stating i have not been shortlisted (very disapppointing).
I am not sure as to why this has happened, there have been several people from my airline that have been accepted into etihad in the past year. I did take the photos myself rather than get them done professionally, but this is the only reason i can think of.
Any ideas on where i can improve for the next time?

Hey everyone,
have this one thing concerning me
I have had the assessment day on the 28th of January, got to final interwiev and it's been more than two weeks and I haven't heard from them! Nothing neither congratulations nor sorry letter. everything would be not that strange exept that all the other who made to F.I. that day got their letters. All of them exept me
I have written them reminding about myself, but no response to that either! I am litteraly banging my head to the wall and this waiting is killing me
Any ideas? Why this is happening?
All the answers are very appretiated!
