canadianboy23 , chinoa

Canadianboy23: I had the same problem. The thing is the time difference. I you are in TO...call after midnight or before 8 in the morning....I would call at night around midnight to 1 am...because they are 9 hours ahead of us and they are open during office hours I believe

ChinoA: dont give up. Why not give them a call this week if its close to 6 weeks? Good luck. I hope you get the golden call soon soon soon!

Hello from NZ

Hi everyone,

I have been reading this thread for a while. Nice to see many others are in the same boat as I am!

I attended the Wellington New Zealand open day in November and made it to the final interview. I'm in my 5th week of waiting to hear something now.

Good luck to all those waiting.

Hi everyone

Got my ass in first week of Jan here in London! Been reading everyones great posts, and they are such a big help. I now know what kind of things to expect.

My main aim for the day is to go in, give it my best shot, and to meet some great people and just have a great day. If I get through I will be happy, if i dont, I wont kill myself over it, for sure!

Its the first time I am going for a CC interview.

P.S I am a male, and will wear a suit, not to sure what colour shirt though? I thought of white? or Pink?? hmmm

I would give them a call when its bang on 6 weeks. You have done your time then and they cant be funny about you calling early...

I actually have to wait 7 weeks because I sent my pictures and school certificates in a week after my final interview so I think its 6 weeks from that point.

Its so difficult because the longer you wait the more excited and the more you end up wanting it!!! Really...it's just cruel!!!

Just keep me posted on what you do or hear....you never know we might end up having the same DOJ!!! Obviously Im looking on the bright side here!!

Hey ChinoA,

Sorry to hear about this! I find it somewhat strange that it takes them so long to get back to you with the results Your file was complete at the time of the final interview, right?

I was sort of relieved to get my No email last week. As much as I was sad for that one day, I am glad I have the decision now and can have holidays without any thinking... Hope, all will work out for you!

Merry Xmas and Happy New Year to all!

Off to Berlin with my favorite LH (and then will try for QR and EY)....

Waiting in Hong Kong

I rented a phone that works in HK and guess what? Everyone is calling me but Emirates!

Made in Ukraine, sorry to hear that you got a NO email.

I have another friend who went to the FI in Osaka on November 28th as well and she got her NO today.

Don't know if it is a good sign for me or not

Forgot to mention that I'm going back to Japan Wednesday.

Hey Aline,

I hope you are having nice time in Hong Kong. So, you have not heard from EK as of today? Well, this may be a good sign. Two of my friends got their calls already, and another girl got her NO email last Wednesday, on the same day when I did mine. She was really devastated, but for me it was not that bad (I am still waiting for my "Oh my God, I failed"-moment to come (if it ever will...). I am not taking it way too seriously. They did not want me - its their choice and their decision. And while I do not necessarily like it, I respect it and will give THEM another chance to hire me next year (provided nothing better comes along by then).

Have a great time in HK and catch up with you later...

S.

ChinoA, Sarahbusta & all others waiting!!!....

Honestly just keep waiting and keep positive.....I dont think there is any logic to it. Why would they keep all the NO's waiting till the 6th week....it would be easier to do a mass email and get it over with. I think its just down to when they get round to your file.

I think its slightly different procedures in different countries but I had my open day and final interview in Glasgow and then was asked to send professional pictures and schooling certificates to an address in London and from there they would be sent off to Dubai. All the forms i filled in and everything that went into my file had no details on it to say i had attended the open day in Glasgow UK so I dont think they look at everyones in order. They all get mixed together....people from UK, New York, Manilla and so on........So I dont think it really matters if you wait 2 weeks or 8 weeks and whether it means you get a YES or a NO.

At the end of the day you are either right or wrong for the job.....of course we are all hoping we are right for the job!!!!

For all you guys that applied through agencies...I would still contact Emirates to see.............you never know.......and you have nothing to lose!!! Go for it.

Plus I think with it being over christmas and NY things may take a lot longer. I have been reading the posts and a lot of people who have called because no one has contacted them have been told they hae been successful and someone just forgot to contact them!! So its not necessarily bad news.....

Keep Positive guys.....your making me depressed!!!

Unhappy Help anyone? Rgds to Online Joiners Form

Hello everyone.

I received the email after the golden call. We are supposed to fill up the online joiners form. However, I was stuck at the Visa details because we do not have the information! Resulted in the insufficient info to complete the whole form.

Can anyone help me on this, please?

Finally in Dubai...for you guys waiting, you wont beleive how busy EK is ! Makes sense why we only get calls from them when its really necessary for them ! Patience. The group before me had 75 new joiners and mine 70, so just imagine the work that goes into organising this...

I am in temporary accomodation and so are a lot of new joiners, hotel-appartements very big and comfy ! Internet is a drag

CarineA hurry up will you

Good luck to all
