to set it all straight you start making 3,915 dirhams for your basic salary as a grade 2(economy class). then you get 53.50 dirhams per flight hour and the average can be anywhere from 80-100 hours per month, depends what you bid on. plus you get your layover allowance in cash at the hotel. So add it up and its not so bad. you get your accommodation for free with electric and water and a small allowance for you home phone. plus there is a yearly profit sharing bonus if the company does well. this year was like 14 weeks pay

Hi Guys,
The contents of this forum is the Jack pot for all seeking to become Emirates cabin crew. I have my interview in 2 weeks just have a few questions for those who have already been through the process.
Did you take your High School Certificate/ Copy with you on the day?
Do you take written references or just the contact details for references?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Emirates
Hi guys,
Congratulations on everyone that got the job!
I applied for Emirates in Sydney and made it trough all the rounds as well. I am waiting now for the final email now.
How long did it take before you got the email?
After you send them your medical results, how long did it take them to get back to you?
Alos, do they book your flight before you give them your medical results?
Thanks,

Hello, I got the golden call today after waiting 6 weeks!
It's funny because I called the office in Dubai to check what was going on, they told me my file was being processed and I should receive a feedback in 7 days (8 weeks!?!).. Well, for my relief they called me a few hours later with good news!
Sidney 1981 - They do book your flight without your medicals! Good luck to you!

TOM_LGW my friend is starting on your day she's from Birmingham she's lovely. She's sending off her medicals for approval on Monday so hopefully you'll be training together.
Has anyone from the UK (london area) had any problems with medicals?
1st. Specsavers wouldn't give me my results for eye test and audiogram when i have paid for them.
2nd. My GP won't fill out my medical history or give me a medical saying it's pointless to bits and pieces and i should go to a private hospital to get everything done there...which i kinda understand but who else is gonna have my medical history apart from my GP?
The only thing i've managed to get is my dental stuff done arghhh.
Be grateful for anyone that can offer advice in this area.
Thanx

CREW_GIRL_2 me and your friend were on the same interview day!! hope she gets all the medcals sorted soon.
I just went to my GP and he did all my medical history and stuff and blood tests etc's then reffered me to a private clinic to get chest x-rays and stuff! my GP was very helpful ( was prob the £75 it cos to see him that helped!!) Dont see the point going private, becasue the GP would have to send the medical history to the private place anyway!!!! also you wil have to get your hearing test done seperatly as the GP cant do them !!! its a very expensive process but well worth it!!!

try again
hi, i think you must try again as much as possible. first time i attended ek interview i went through final interview, and i didn´t do anything special, i think the key is there, to be humble and not to think you are gonna get the job, i think if you are a little bit scared.......... better!! but finally i failed with references and personality tests, then the second and third time i did an interview with emirates, i was cut in the group discussion, i am the same person but......... the recruiters are different!!
my last inteview with etihad last week i was pretty sure i was going to get the job, as i was very confident, enthusiatic and positive, also there were like 55 candidates (nothing), but finally i was eliminated in the first review.. so you never know.
i think the best attitutde is being a little bit scared and very humble

Hi all,
First of all this is an amazing forum and you guys do a great job helping us wannabes by sharing your experiences.
I have an interview in Houston on the 20th Sep and am really nervous about it. I have read the tips here and still confused on what they actually sort after as far as the group discussions are concerned. Hoping for the best

Medical
Hey i booked with Bupa for my medical in the end they do EVERYTHING on EK's medical list (under their classic package) except denal and vaccinations which i have already done.
It's around £469 but it includes chest x-ray and it's all done in one day in the same building....No need to run around london to different hospitals! However i need to pay a seperate fee for HIV and HEP C.
Tom_LGW booked with my GP again (double appointment) HE WILL fill in the medical history form at a fee (don't know why he couldn't do it on friday?!...dr's eh!?) So should have everything done by Wed 17th!
Here's the link for Bupa incase anyone wants to use them in the future:

How long did you wait for your final approval Sarahz?

crew girl - Doctor will do the blood test free of charge, the NHS give free HIV tests ( well thats what my doc said!) Just ask them when you have your appointment (thats what i did, but was maybe being a bit cheeky!)
