I received the golden call today!!!
I had my final interview last week. After 9 days of wait, I have finally received it and I am joining on Aug 29!!! Woohoo!!! 
This is soooo overwhelming! I was at the mall when she called me and all I did was to say "thank you" and "okay".
Anyway, she told me to finish my medicals as soon as possible but the problem is I didn't receive the email yet. Hmmm... Maybe it will take a while, right?
I hope you guys can help me out so that I know what to do. Thanks!

I know, right now seems to be a good time to EK what with the A380 and exciting new destinations. I bet you're really excited as it's not far now 'till your start date.
I have everything crossed that i'll be successful - i must admit i am already struggling and it's only been a week since my interview!
Good luck to everyone and i'll keep you updated on my waitx

thanks louisd and meedo12000
I received the overloaded attachment today! Good relief! Louisd, I am really from the Philippines but I went to the open day here in Singapore. I have a few questions regarding the medicals.
I just had my medicals on HIV and chest x-ray last April, will they consider that? (Unfortunately, I only have a photocopy of it because I gave it to the immigrations for visa purpose).

HI yes, i am already working with Emirates, My probation finishes next month so fingers crossed.
For those of you who are interested in upgrade infomation and time frames they are down to just 10months in economy before you can move upto Business, when i first got here it was over a year so thats exciting news. Also the A380 currently to apply you need to have been here a year, that is a rumour but they prefer people who have been here a while, not sure if that is to do with exclusivity of the metal smartie tube i am not sure.

Hi Guys
Well Done czarina. Make sure you get the dentals done asap the rest is straight forward. and guys and gals who had the final interviews, it takes time for the call to come be patient. they told me it would be between 2 and 6 weeks i was one of the lucky ones that got a call before then, EK Gal and other got the call after me by a few weeks so it depends. and i_am_waiting. im not in a rush to move into business class, yes they pay better but i will be patient as ever and try to get through the training and dedicate my time to woking hard . then well see what happens maybe become cabin crew trainor later on and settle down, as with middle eastern parents they want me to get married soon. told thats not happening yet....lets work and have a bit of fun than we could focus on family stuff. have a good day group.

Quick Question
I fly out from Melbourne tomorrow for my DOJ 8th of Aug (damn, will miss the opening ceremony!)
Just wondering, would you say for the flight over it would be ok to dress fairly casual? i.e nice shirt, jeans etc? In the final briefing there is no mention of this - only that for the first few days of training we shoud wear office type clothing.
Also, for those of us who are going on a DOJ flight one of my mates who is already in Dubai told me we are welcome to use the EK lounge etc as we are now technically staff? can anyone confirm that?
Thanks

The've called me!
I can't belive it! I was in Mombasa for a layover and they phoned me telling me that I've got through! 
I've got to do the medicals now and if all goes well I'm off on 5 September!
I'm so happy!
Has anyone else from the Rome recruitment day (26 July) been called?
Let me know...
Good luck to everyone,
Sakari xxx

Wow that's so quick...Congratulations! 
I went to an assessment day on the 29th July in London then had my final interview on the 30th July.
Who do you fly for at the moment? I worked for Silverjet up until they went bust in June.
Now on a temp contract with Thomas Cook based out of LGW can't wait to travel again as i'm pretty much just on a short haul roster at the moment!

Did you manage to do everything in one day? I don't know how I'm going to fit it all in 'cause I'm still working for Livingston, ex Lauda Air, and my roster this month is jam-packed!
I just hope I'll manage to do everything.. I'm still waiting for my medical e-mail....
What do they ask you to do?
Thanks and bye

Hi guys and gals.
Im heading to dubai on the 29th of aug and just needed some tips on how the training operates how long it is exactly. what happens when you arrive what are the first few days like. how do they operate in regard to their medicals. and as someone may have asked you ek flights from melbourne usually arrive a 4am. so i presume that clean jeans, formal shoes and t-shirt wouldnt harm. anyway it would be great to know this type of info. and it would be great to know fellow aussies working from ek.

Bhill Dont worry youll get a reply a few days later i ended up waiting a few days for that and everyhting was fine then they said between a week and 4 days prior to departure so wishing all applicants well. did you end up adding me on facebook by the way you have been added to my facebook freinds list. found ya thanks for the email address. waiting for the acceptance.lol. hey Ek gal hows things buds havent heard from you in a while ( a few days seems like that) it will be sad to see you not coming on the same flight. i heard some one got a free upgrade to bus class as the flight was full. i hope im in the situation.lol
