steward man - photos

Hey - they're really not huge fans of photoshopping. I'd hand in what you've got as they are and if you are invited to Final Interview they'll give you a big long list of specs for your photos - i.e. buttoned up jacket, clean shaven, no digital/polaroid/photoshop etc. These will be the photos that go to HR Management in EK Headquarters, not the initial application ones, the ones on your online application form, or the ones you hand in on an Open Day, and your interviewer will tell you on the spot if the photos you have are suitable or not. The very best of luck to you.

The final interviews are for the people who have already passed everything and been put on hold. Assessment Days are for anyone who has applied online and been invited by Emirates to attend. Open Days are for anyone.

final interview

I did my final interview today at HQ, felt it went quite well...maybe 1 or 2 questions i felt could have answered better...took about 45mins, then they asked me to do a logic test. Im curious as to why...maybe its a random thing as other candidates didn't have to :s

Photo Tips

Guys and Girls a tip for your photos is grab a plain sheet and drape it over a door or a cupboard and onto the floor so when you take the photo you are standing on the sheet and it all blends in as one background. Thats what I did for mine and it saves on having professional ones done. You do need someone to help though but it does work. Also these days you can make any pic into a passport pic by zooming in on the photo that has you looking the best in it as most DYI photo stations have the facilty to make passport pics from any picture.

scotsman83

Hi there; the logic test you did at the end of your final interview is a UAE labour law requirement and every candidate that is recruited in Dubai will have to do it, so don't worry! Good luck, I hope the outcome is a positive one

....

ye it was multiple choice...don't get this confused with the psychometric test they do on the group stage. Anyway it was basically a a test where you had shapes and you had options of what comes next.

I know someone said its Dubai labour law..but if that is the case how come the others didn't have to do it :s I guess one good thing is that i don't think they would have bothered to make me do it if i had done badly at the 1on1

tests

Hi, every test , for example, math, language, or even logic are for 2 reasons, one, to calculate your IQ , and second, to see if you can work under pressure. So , the more correct answers you have means that you can think clearly while working or thinking "i have to impress the interviewers, i have to look secure, i have to be perfect", some people, can't handle this.

full length photo

Hi everyone,

Its great to hear that Emirates are finally hiring again! I was just wondering whether Emirates specify what size they like the full length photograph to be. I just went out and got a professional pic taken and the offer was for a 25cm x 33cm (10" x 13") size shot. Is this too big or is it fine?

Also I registered for the Melbourne Open Day 10.10.09 about 5 days ago and have not heard back from them. I know it has probably already been stated somewhere in the forum but you don't need an invite to go to the Melbourne Open Day right?

Is there anybody else going to this Open Day?

Thanks for your help

photo

Hi!

Maybe I'm wrong because I had my OD four years ago but the full-length photo must have been postcard size. And yes, I had to redo mine before my final interview. Fortunately, I had time because I had to go for 2 p.m. for my interview. I was so lucky because my new photo in my new suit was much better! The photographer lady was quite old fashioned and very professional. She tried to do her best.

I think they ask for natural photo (so not business attire) as well. I just read it on pprune before and my friends who were hired in 2008 had to send one as well. (Full-length, only you on the picture, jeans or skirt, hair up or down, so not formal.)

Don't worry, they will tell you exactly what they want. It takes only one hour to have it done.

Good luck!

Scotsman

Hi Scotsman, it could have been my post that you were reading.

Yes I made it to the final interview and did the iq test and i got the rejection email. I think this is because I hurried the test and didn't do quite well as expected, which is a bummer Im not the kind of guy that is very good at those tests anyway so I hope next year when I attend I would do even better!

My friend's cousin who works for Emirates did mention that if they give you the picture iq test, you are for sure a strong candidate to work with the company. However, before finalising anything they would have to send off your resume again to the HR in Dubai for a final assessment/decision.

I hope this info helps.

God bless

p.s how did anyone do in the Brisbane O/D?
