ajohnstone, I'm pretty much in the same situation as you are, only that I had my one-on-one final interview last November 25th (yes, November 2008). I only heard from Emirates about 4 weeks ago when they emailed me asking me to switch my Annual Leave Destination. After reading this thread for 2 days already, I'm starting to get my expectations low. But like you said, given the circumstances, no news is good news apparently. I have been trying to phone Emirates, but I'm out of luck, busy all the time. Not sure what to do.

well well 
I got my email
it's a NO for me ... what I understood ( 
or what I want to convince my self they meant) from the email is that I was approved but because of the current situation I am not to join them, because it says :
We wish to point out that this is no reflection of you as a candidate as you did demonstrate potential through our process. Your not being successful at this time is the result of us having to select a finite number of people from a large pool of high quality candidates to meet our current aircraft crewing requirements.
We do thank you for your interest and the enthusiasm you have shown and we would welcome a reapplication from you in the future. Our team will look to make contact with you in approximately six to nine months time to see if you would like to reapply to join our international Cabin Crew team.
Cause they mentioned that they might make contact within 6 to 9 months and as far as I know if you get rejected after the final interview, you can only apply after at least one year time.
Or maybe this is the typical rejection letter ?? I donno
Dam you financial crisis
it was nice chatting with all of you guys .. I will keep an eye on the forum.
Peace & Love

Hey Guys, i just thought to clear up some things with the cancelation of open days. i attended the open day in Sydney on the 7th feb and Basically the recruitment lady told us all that due to both the economic cricis and the number of campaigns they have run over the last few months they would be putting on hold recruitment for the time being. She advised they would have also cancelled the sydney event but it was too close to the date so they tried to do the right thing and the run the day as a CV collection only with just one recruiter and they would then take our resumes back to emirates and make a decision as to who would go on to the assessment day.
It was a VERY long day, I arrived at 8:15 and didn't leave until about 4.10. there was approx 250 people throughout the day and there were two groups of us the first going in at 9 and came out around 12 ish then we went in and sat while the lady went through the last of group 1's CV'S.. It was funny because some ppl pushed in to group 1 and didn't here what the lady had to say about the changes so they prob think they missed out lol because they didint recieve a call that day! she also told us to write our e-mail down just incase as well so they should of stayed and listened to the correct information. She advised that they would be running things differently this time and that those candidates who were shortlisted would receive an email no latter then the end of feburary this would then invite them to attend an assessment day. She advised this may be up to 16weeks. well i hope this helps some ppl and thamks for all your help, good luck to everyone xox

Fadi and ajohnstone, I'm so sorry to hear your news!
When I was reading I honestly got such a sick feeling in my stomach...I'm so concerned, I checked my email and nothing yet-which at this point seems like a good sign....but who know's?
So having a look at what everyone has said it seems that they may hold some courses, but they have gone through and done a re-selection of the candidates they have already offered a position to....
Good luck for the future fadi, do you think if they contact you, you will try again?

Withdrawals.......poop!
Hey Everyone,
It is shocking what is going on!! What annoys me is that they havent made an official statement yet!! It's obvious that it is causing problems.
Has anyone had their contract withdrawn after the final approval?? Im pretty sure they cant do it once they have given the final approval but I just wanted to know if they had?
I think its unfair that they havent put you guys on the backburner until more spots come up.....people leave.....have babies.....get promotions......so they still need some people....Its unfair to have you guys apply all over again and pay for medicals!!
Shocking....thats all I can say!!

Put things into Perspective...
Hey Guys, we live in Victoria Australia 10km from the bushfires, we listen to the helilcopters everyday pass our house, picking up the injured, the dead and carrying water to try to save some of the houses, we have lost 750 house, 183 confirmed dead countless others in critical condition, lifes will never be the same again.
I sit in my house feeling guilty for my comfort and wondering why I was so stressed about getting a job with emirates 2 wks ago.
We have our health our family and friends, please try to focus on what we have not what we want.
Everyone will look back and think why did I freak out so much, what is happening in my life now is so good...

Make it known
I urge anyone waiting... write to your countries most popular newspapers and magazines throughout the world. We need a public statement. This is just not right. I am supposed to leave in three weeks and I refuse to wait till one week before to get a lousy automated email.....
Is it just me or does EK
make anyone else
feel like this

Guys and girls..
if you really love this job and your dignity of human being...forget about Emirates.
they will suck your young blood and all your energetic strenght that you have now in exchange of low salary (for dollar and euroīs holders), sleeping problems and endless-overtiring services pleasing overdemanding-choosy passengers (most of their destinations).
I know they look glamourous, but after two months, glamour...itīs gone,
Donīt let them decieve you, with those pompous open days, life&job with them is hard and tough..no glamorous at all.
I repeat, if you love your health and freshness...choose any other company.
Pd. even though emirates is, among the gulf airlines, the less harmful one...
any query, consult an exemiratee!

Tried Calling Today And....
they informed me that my HR Coordinator was on vacation and they tried transferring me continuously to another lady in charge but she did not answer the phone, always getting transferred to the answering machine...
The receptionist said that I would be notified by email...
and I asked if it was true that Emirates has stopped recruitment.. she acted all normal and said that only Ground crew was not being selected...
so I just hung up...
I'm not gonna call...I will wait and see what they are gonna do...
I still didnt receive that DREADED mail but I guess I still have time until 13 march to get it cos I'm expecting it I guess...
Plus in a previous post of mine, I did write about this "re-selection" of potiential candidates out of all of us here...
So everything depends on what capabillities they actually NEED at the moment..
If anyone here has a Doctor's or Nurse's Degree or experience as a military officer they won't hesitate to take u guys
Also there are many languages on demand such as Hindi, Arabic, Chinese, Mandarin ecc..
In my case I know perfect Italian, Sinhalese and English..
And I got only my cute face haha!!
But hey, this is not a modeling contest
(I hope the ladies on this forum are not mad at my comment!)

most importantly...
Just like grantlu, i myself got that same email, what i would like to know, better said wanting to clear my very very confused mind at this moment is the part where they said they would contact us in 6-9 months time, cause i dnt mind waiting 1 year, but can they keep their word that they will contact us? Because im stuck now in between 2 decision, either i can continue my studies or work and get more experience. I know alot of people will say better study, but at the end this is what i want! But im scared that they wont live up to their promises. The part where they say this "Our team will look to make contact with you in approximately six to nine months time to see if you would like to reapply to join our international Cabin Crew team" sounds very convinsing. And right before that they say this " We do thank you for your interest and the enthusiasm you have shown and we would welcome a reapplication from you in the future". I dnt get it man? Any advice fellow frens?
