I think you will be able to postpone your doj as far back as you need to. They've put AD/OD up for february now so obviously they arent planning to freeze recruitment again anytime soon, and must have a lot more training dates planned already.

E-ticket And Visa
Hi guys!!
Just to communicate to you all that I received my e-ticket and visa today..
Even though my DOJ is on 18th Jan, will be flying out on the 19th and landing in Dubai on the 20th at 6.00 am..
A small question: just to be sure, the itinerary on e-ticket is based on local time based on where you fly from right??
Also, I want to thank this wonderful forum and all the ppruners who have partaken in all discussions, given support to each other during recruitment freeze and built up hopes for the future..
You guys have all come through with me on this wonderful journey towards this dream called Emirates, and I wish everyone who are attending their ODs and ADS or Final Interviews, who are expecting their Golden Calls, who are awaiting clearance from medicals and other joining formalities, to never give up on their dream, as I have never given up after being selected and then put on hold twice, first for my age and then for the credit crunch!!
This has been a real challenge for me and believe it or not i've been fighting for this for 17 months!!
God is really Great!!
Well when I get to Dubai will update you all!!
Love, Arosha from Sri Lanka

Hi there,
I think the hardest question for me was something like: tell me about an argument you had with a workmate and how did you resolve it?
Good luck at your assessment day
Does anyone know when staff travel benefits kick in for your spouse and what they are?
Please PM me if you know.
Thanks

spouse benefits
- unlimited id90 tickets
- unlimited flyzed tickets
Same for the kids. (No medical, no residence visa.)
If your spouse lives in Dubai, you have to move out from company accomodation. In this case, you will get living-out allowance and transportation allowance. It's around 45,000 dhs per year. You can take a furniture loan without interest - ask about it at the employee service center, they usually don't offer it but it exists.
For more information, go to groupworld (internal portal on the internet) and find the employee handbook and read the appropriate chapters.
If you have ANY questions during training, ask WHERE to find the information. The trainers don't know everything, it's more important to know where to go and what to do. Rules can change any time, check everything yourself and never ever forget to follow up!!! Keep yourself updated by READING your e-mails and updates on the Portal.
ALL INFORMATION YOU NEED IS PROVIDED on the Cabin Crew Portal or on Groupworld. You can find everything but most people have no idea how to read.

FOR TungusAmongUs
They are asking questions from your previous jobs (if you are already a CA is simple because you already have some stories about nervos,drunk,or noisy pax). If you are not is not a problem because for sure you had some disagreement at work...
So they are tring to see how do you manage in dificult situations.
I am already a CA so my questions was like:
1) Tell me when a pax "Thanks to you".What did you do for him to "Thanks to you"
2)Explain a moment when you had a problem with a pax.What was the problem and how did you resolve it?
3)Tell me about an argument you had with a colleague and how did you resolve it?
4)Do you cut corners in your jub after a long day working?
5)Do you respect rules in your job if someone dosen't see you?
6)Tell me a moment from your life when you made a mistake. Why did you do it? How did you resolve it?
Something like this was my questions...but very important NOTE for FI...
- be relax, I know is hard,but try to DON'T move your leg,or scratch your nose often, or play with your fingers till you brake them....AND DON'T FORGET TO SMILEEEE.....
- try to give exact explination, don't cut the story because FI is the moment when you have to talk a lot...
- when you talk a lot explain "WHY" you done the mistake (but don't blame somebody else); WHAT you learnt from that...and that it was a good leason for you...
Show them the positive part from your mistakes...
And guys don't forget SMILE,SMILE,SMILE...
In the end this is our job to wellcome the pax with a SMILE...
GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Dear Fungus,
I noticed that you've been collecting interview questions since 24th October. I'm sure you have enough to work with by now. Other than that: google (cabin crew/flight attendant interview questions and answers).
You wrote that you had an interview with Qatar on 6th December. Well, the Emirates assessment is very similar to Qatar's: cv drop-off, group discussions, English test, psychometric test, final interview. It's a great achievement that you made it to the interview at Qatar without any customer service experience. Are you still waiting for the answer? (Could you please, share your experience with the other candidates in the Qatar topic - all information is highly appreciated as you know!)
Beside the customer service related questions, I had to come up with my 3 bad and 3 good qualities.
Good luck to you on the Emirates Open/Assessment Day!
