I asked if it could be later as I have to give 1 month minimum notice and also I was having trouble getting in to get medical stuffs done. EK said no problem, start in June.

They texted and emailed me.
Thanks dear but all i can say is that God has been in control from the very beginning. I pray you'll get your call asap................ The pre course workbook is like homework before you even leave for DXB. I'll be praying for all of you to get your golden call,final approvals and etc.

I wish I could stay and make some money 
but the thing is I've been on unpaid leave for the past 6 months so I thought maybe if I had all the papers ready I could start sooner..

Hey, I'm in Dubai too and noticed EK changed it from "CV drop off for Arabic speakers only" to "all nationalities".
Finally EK is allowing me to have a chance, can't be happier
I was so worried that I would never get a chance to go to the interview.
I'm not sure what CV drop off day really consists of but I will be prepared as if I am going to the open day.
Hope to see you there, My name is Celina

CV submission day
Does anyone here familiar with CV submission day?
I wonder if we are shortlisted, assessment days will start from a day right after the submission day.
Does anyone know about this?
I will appreciate your comments/answers

Hi Cel
If it's an OD that you are attending it will be pretty much a CV submission. What will happen during that day is that you will be met by 2 recruiters who will give you a run down of what the airline is about, the lifestyle of cabin crew and of course on Dubai as well. They will show you videos, ask you questions about the company and in return you will get the ask them questions as well. The introduction will take round about 1.5 to 2 hours. After the introduction you will then be asked to introduce yourself to the recruiter where they are seated. This is where you will hand them your cv and a photo of yourself (full-size or passport photos of yourself smiling in business attire is highly recommended). You will only have about 20-30 seconds with them and they ask you things like "Where are you working at the moment" or "Tell me about yourself". Dont be offended if the recruiter seems short or not interested in you, it's either they are jet-lag or they have hundreds of attendees to go through on the OD. They are also known to purposely show "short-temper" because they want to see how you assess the situation and keep your calm.
That's basically it! If you are successful, they will give you a call and invite you to the second stage of the interview, which will be a group assessment.
Hope this helps!
God bless

medical nightmare
i had one of the worst experience today trying to get most of my medicals done.
the medical staff at a PRIVATE health care facility i went to made me feel to loose it! the God amongst mortals mentality was driving me crazy. after i explained all that i needed over the phone when i got there they TOLD me no no no usually with these things x y z is what you need to do!!!! talking to me like i was slow or a child. the dentist told me don't tell him what to do after i simple explain what Emirates asked me to get done.
then he said Emirates a picky company and they would want him to send the x-rays to them personal!!!! i decided NOT to do my dental there! i just had my blood work done and chest x-ray.
i felt drained when i left.
medical staff are not use to the patients knowing a bit of what they need. its ridiculous!!!
are you all having any medical nightmares

to Cel - Dubai cv submission
Dear Cel,
the info above was not entirely correct.
The cv submission in Dubai is only to drop off your cv.
You need to do it in person!!! The recruitment lady might ask you 1-2 questions (first impression) and that`s it. There might be hundreds of people, men and women, it might take a while.
If successful, you will be invited later on for an Assessment. It could be 1-3 weeks later after you submitted your cv. If they don`t call you, sorry, you did not make it. They will only contact the selected candidates.
There might be several assessment days. Last time (READ BACK IN THIS TOPIC) around 30 people were invited for one of the assessments (I read it here) and 3 of them made it to the final interview.
About Assessment Days (AD): read back. You will find hundreds of detailed posts about the event.
Have a good cv and excellent photos prepared. Competition is huge in Dubai. Lots of Philippinos and Russians will apply and most of them are beautiful and have appropriate background.
You need to look neat and lovely when you meet the recruiters.
Good luck!

Medicals - the doctor
I would highly recommend everyone to do some of the medicals at an AVIATION MEDICAL EXAMINER or aviation doctor.
Search it in your mother tongue and you will all find the right person in your country. My country is very small, so only one name comes up on google and he works in the capital. I`m sure that countries, like UK or Australia have several options for you.
You need to pay but they do most of the tests, they are quick and they fill up all the paperwork without questions.
