Thanks so much for the info and all the best to those who are waiting for the golden call/email!

i ve never worked just in my fathers firm of consalting and accounting this summer, but nothing else.
could you give some advice: how can i make my resume better. what should i do? and i dont have a lot and a lot of time because of school, at least not untill next june-september. but at least something small but efficient and effective, do you have some idea for this? please! !!!
what courses should i finish or something to upgrade it a little? and what do you think of getrting that E-diploma cerstificate for cabin crew at Cabin Crew Cabin Crew Jobs Cabin Crew Vacancies Cabin Crew Forum Cabin Crew Careers

Sofia 25-26 October
Hi guys, I went to Sofia Assessment day on 25th oct
This is how it went: we were 69, and the two recruiters Emma and Christie group us in two (I was in the second group).When we enter they split us again in two groups, and we had the group discussion à present the person on your right, favorite destination and favorite food. Then it was another subject put 3 things in a time capsule and then bury it. As I notice that the persons who didn’t look at all the other colleagues from the room while talking, failed the test. If you didn’t had the opportunity to speak during this exercise the recruiters helped you and asked you to say your opinion.
After this elimination, about half left. Then English test, very simple and English is not my native language, basically comprehension. There were 2 text to read and answer the questions, find the synonyms from the text and some signs like ”Stuff only” means a)Anyone can enter; b)Only for stuff; c) Stuff can’t enter; and an essay The most funniest moment or the most embarrassing moment(fill two pages).
Not too many eliminations here. After that, we were split in two and another group discussion à you are W airline and you have 8 first class passengers and you need to down grade 6(you’ll have the names and functions of those pax)./ You have two properties, one in the city and one outside, which one will bring you more money . Those who passed this one made it to the individual interview. After that the psychometrical test 185 questions, 171 related to your personality and 14 to test your IQ.
Final interview just a chat to know more about your personality and how you interact with customers. At the end of the day 15 made it to the final.
Now I’m waiting for my golden call.
Hope this helps and good luck to you all, may all your wishes came true. Just fallow your dreams and be confident, they see if you’re not.

no, they don't check you references. you can be sure of it 100%. 
i've asked my ex boss yesterday (after i've read your post) did anyone call regarding the subject and he said NO. my re-interview was 1.10. and they called me 12 days later.
hope that helped you!

Ruby,
take the new job! You can resign without any problem during probation!!! (1-3-6 months: look at your contract.) Companies treat you like **** usually - please, be tough, do not care what they think about you!!! Emirates left hundrends of people waiting for 10-12 months, come on, a company doesn't care about individuals!
If you get the EK job, take it. If you get the private flying position 3 weeks after the Golden Call from EK, do not hesitate to decide on private flying! You can tell Emirates: sorry, personal problems, cannot go this time. Nobody will question you: there are hundreds of applicants waiting.
If you hate private flying, well, you can still try Emirates again 1 year later. They won't ask what happened last time, really.
Don't miss any opportunities and be selfish! There is no point to be honest nowadays - that's my experience. (I worry too much as well but I should change. It's not good for anyone...)
Good luck to you! I'm absolutely sure that you will be all right!!!

Hi!
I've been thinking about becoming a flight attendant for awhile. I had flown with Emirates on several occasions and it was amazing. I have been doing some research about the recruitment process and was wondering if anyone knows when would be the next OD or AD in the United States. I live Virginia, I understand that Qatar has a OD in New York but what about EK?
And congratulations to those starting at EK
it seems like all candidates went through quite a bit to get hired!
--Oh, and what format of CV did you guys use? (traditional or modern contemporary) Would someone who is hired help to evaluate mine for me as well? I'll buy dinner if I get to ever go dubai! Thanks!

Nrcrowth, I'm sorry to hear about the rejection letter.
Yes, things happen for a reason... I'm sure you are very disappointed right now but I know that you will find better opportunities very soon. Good luck with your professional career!

Hi I think you should try getting a part time job dealing with the public or get involved in a youth group (to show you can work in a team and have good leadership skills ),or a charity to get experience in customer service , did you get involved in an activity at school it counts .You say you worked in your fathers firm even if it was answering the phone dealing with day to day enquires it counts also .Try doing a short Fist Aid course ,Food Hygiene , Grooming or Make-up (learning you to take great pride in your appearence all look good on your cv . apply to smaller airlines for experience (not essential ) go back through the forum and read up there are lots of tips , add you have a sense of humour (you will need it in this job )
have a hobby that makes you stand out and lastly please dont give up x

Bratislava
To Julia82
Firstly you should to register on EK Career, then find the Open Days events list, there are informations about all of the Open Days or Assessment Days. However, there is no more information about Bratislava - only the planned date of event without address where it will be, but they will be add details soon.
I was in Paris last Saturday to attended for Open Day, it was no sense. Open Days lasted only for 3 hours and after that they asked us go home and wait for call. No chance of self-presentation, they only collected our resumes and nothing more. Next day they said that there was to much attendants and they couldn't gave a chance for all of them so they chose only sixty resumes and they are sorry for that. No comments.
Oh, I see they added more details today about OD in Bratislava. Check it.
