silly HR
HAHAHA, i honstly did call between 3:30-4 BUT i will try YET AGAIN this afternoon and if i still get no answer trust me you'll be hearing about it hahah. yes my document that i sent you was a bit muddled but the one i sent through was all fixed up and rescanned! so i didn't think it was that hard to work out.
yeah i was pretty happy with the salary- i'm on a fair bit more now but i hate my job and its all commission so theres no gurarantees. yes def able to save when paying no accommodation/bills!
i love playing soccer too- but i'm not that good at it, i LOVE to watch it though- but i like playing netball because i am actually good at it- we'll have to suss it out when we have our week off!
i have my alarm set for 3:30- trust me i'm there on it! (i really should stop moaning- and just be happy i'm GOING!!)
also i'm trying to encourage lauren from hob to come iwth us on the 29/8!! fingers crossed on that one!!!
p.s your a slacker, finishing at 12:30!!!!

Im not slacking up in work they just cut a few shifts today due to the fact its a bit quiet so thats fine by me today. its the only shift cut for this fortnight. thats great new about lauren pending she accepts. And good you fixed up the doc.lol. anyway thats good youre back online in the forum....check out that blog youll like it....

DID You See the A380 vids...type Emirates+A380 search in google and youtube and youll see how good of a plane that is.....

Nikedo15 thank you for all the good points regarding group discussion. It was my problem that I spoke too much... next time I won't do it again. That just gives me another 6 months to get prepared .... 
Hopefully next time I'll make it thru.

hello everybody ! just had my assessment day with EK in London ! and didn't got through the first round 
well nickedo15 has given some good advice and I ve kinda did what I thought was right at the group exercise. I ve tried to summarise the group discussion; listen to others; maybe it was because I didn't speak that much ?! anyways I think I ve tried to hard to concentrate and just forgot to relax and speak when I felt like . But I think danielsirrom is right ! I think U just have to be yourself! Now I know that's what theyr looking for. They can spot U if U are fakeing! lol
There were ppl who didn't speak that much and passed and others who were almost shouting to impose their opinions and they all passed ! So think there are no rights or wrongs ! Just to be relaxed
Hey emirates girl hope everything is going to sort out ok for U
anyone been to the assessment today/ how did it went for U?

Emirates selection process in London 29th and 30th July
Hello everyone this is my experience of an Emirates selection process in London. 29th and 30th July
Day 1: You watch 3 videos about Emirates then have a chat any questions you may have. Then you do the reach test. Then you introduce yourself to everyone. Then you have to do 3 group exercises - they want to see how you interact with other people really. Then you have an hr for lunch and they make there minds up and make descions who to keep/ not to keep etc...
You get a piece of paper and they tell you to go down to reception and look at it - it's either congratulations or sorry blah blah blah.
You then go back upstairs to fill out some paper work do a pyschometrical test and arrange the times for everyone's interviews for the next day.
Day 2: The interview was with 1 recruiter and they put you at ease it's more like a chat rather than an interview it's all based on your previous jobs and experience there is nothing you can prepare just think about your past experiences and have some scenarios ready.
Now i have to wait 3 - 6 weeks fingers crossed i really would be so happy if i got it!
Good luck to those with interview coming up and to the guys going out to DXB soon! x

References
I was told at the interview that they don't check all references maybe 50% of all applications i think i was told!
Santusa don't worry you'll find out soon enough if you don't get it just keep trying. I've got my fingers crossed for you. I heard that 22nd July in London had a big turnout? I only had 6 people on my day...................
Weird!

bad news
hey meedo,
plans for departure are going slowly- i have to go to an audiologist in hobart now, apparently the hearing test at doc wasn't thorough enough and the earliest appointment i can get is 20/8. i finally got through to someone (not amelka- she is compeletly hopeless and your phone tactics did not work) and talked to them about baggage and the audiologist and have some bad news, apparently the training for the leave date 29/8 is overbooked as it is and if I don't get the hearing done in the next week my leaving date will be pushed back to the 12/9 as the other weeks are full too-----
so trying to ring all the audiologists in hobart again today to get on their cancellation lists but have to wait see how it goes- if I don't leave until 12/9 I'll get to see grandma who is flying over from NZ on the 6/9 to Hobart so good and bad both ways-------
sorry but at least you'll have BHill when you get in to dubai!!
i'll keep you updated

' Hopeless Emirates Recruitment Staff '
After reading through some threads, its interesting to see that people who have pre-selected to join Emirates are already 'bagging' the Emirates recruitment co-ordinators, you will meet them on your first day or so when you land in Dubai and you can see clearly the people they have to deal with.
They look after so many people day in day and do a fab job. The mailboxes in Emirates are always full regardless of which department you call through the sheer volume of crew with queries, there are over 9,000 of us and at least 1000 of you guys going through recruitment processes at different stages. So before calling, stop and think of the pressures that these guys are going through to get you online.
ps. Emailing always works, u'll get a response within 2 days, (Friday & Saturday are of course the DXB weekend)

'hopeless emirates recruitment staff'
i agree recruitment staff do a great job, and i wouldn't call unless I had to, I'm a recruitment consultant at the moment, looking after over 200 temporary employees and i understand its hard to get back to everyone but the reason I used the word hopeless is after over a week of emailing everyday and calling everyday i still received no response- not even one to say, we're looking into it we'll get back to you--- its just frustrating when your on the other side of the world with a valid question and you cannot get through.
i'm not having another jab, but seriously maybe they should look into their procedures if everyone has the same problem??
