Hi everyone, i applied for the global assessment day in London on the 19th Oct, but haven't heard anything back!
Does anyone know where the event will be held, because if i don't hear anything back i plan on just turning up. No other dates are advertised in London including next month. Don't want to miss the opportunity on the basis they have still not got round to reading my application.
Some of the other cities like Paris have the venue details except for London. If anyone has any information please let me know.

Waiting, waiting and waiting some more
Hi guys!!
I think all of us from the UK are in the same boat at the moment regarding the delay, my re-assessment interview was also on the 15th September in London and they also told me I'd hear within 2 weeks, I emailed them after 3 and got no response. I did get an email asking me to sign the updated grooming guidelines and send them back which I've done, still no response from them.
Very frustrated as I'm sure the rest of you are too! If ANYONE from the UK gets a call or email asking them to do medicals please post on here as we'll then know that something is happening for us!!
Thanks xxx

End of the Emirates Road
Hi Everyone,
I've read this for a long while - ever since i was told i had a job with EK, until the recession struck at the end of last year. Because some of the stories have helped me i felt i would like to share my info with all of you...
I had my reassessment interview on the 18th of September and was told i would hear within 2 weeks.
Today (more than 3 weeks later) i received an email saying i was unsuccessful.
Here is the fateful email:
Further to your recent reassessment for the post of Cabin Crew with our Airline, it is with considerable regret that we have to advise you that your application was unsuccessful. As you can appreciate, we have only recently recommenced our cabin crew hiring and there are many candidates interested in the available opportunities we currently have. As a result, the competition for course slots is high.
Should you still be interested in pursuing a career with Emirates Airline, you can re-apply for Cabin Crew after a period of one year, or at anytime for other positions we advertise on our careers website.
We would like to thank you for attending the interview programme, and we wish you every success with your future endeavours.
Yours sincerely,
Recruitment Manager - Cabin Crew.
Congratulations to all those lucky people who have a DOJ and good luck to those still in the process of applying.

I'm so sorry Trixi!!! It's quite shocking... I guess you have no idea why you received a rejection letter.
You might want to try Etihad in the future. They are currently recruiting Japanese and Arabic speakers, Cabin Managers and F and B managers but I'm sure there will be opportunities next year and open days around.
You are so young, maybe you will find better options. It was not ment to be...

6000aed is the lowest, the bare minimum you'd expect to make, if you didn't have many flights that month or you had annual leave then or whatever. 9000 is probably a good average. When you convert to AUD it doesn't seem like a whole lot I know, but keep in mind that you won't have any bills. I assume that EK is like EY..uniforms and dry cleaning are free, transport to and from the airport is free, sometimes you eat on the flight, accommodation and utlities are free, medical insurance blah blah. All you need to pay for yourself is probably internet, cable tv, internet connection, cabs, personal food and entertainment etc. And remember - no tax!

Phone Call...
Hi all,
Trying not to get too excited but I've just had a missed call - message left asking me to call back which I've done and left a message for them - fingers crossed I'll get the answer I'm hoping for - Following the comment above I'm hoping rejection is only issued by email?! Arghhhhhhhh!!!

The average salary at EK... is around 8500aed.... And is plenty.... Plus allowances that vary from between 150aed to 500aed, all paid in local currency at destination.... You can make about 1000aed in allowances each month....
All uniform dry cleaning is free, transport to from work is free.... and the bus runs every 15 mins... So if your really broke you can jump on it to get to friends houses when not on duty! All your bills are paid!
Its a pretty easy life!

yes, it does sound like great news!
you go, girl!
it was a bit strange how they're not contacting your UK group...hope they call all of you guys!
sorry to hear about that girl who had her re-interview and got that awful e-mail.
don't get it... why? after everything, we deserve to go...
Mari-get a life! people are happy and excited to go, to ask, to read, to find out...who are you to judge them or posts they're leaving here!
so what if you're not satisfied? we're all here for the same reason and we all read the same stuff-sometimes it sounds dumb, sometimes it's useful...
let's leave that sarcasm you're full of and respect each other. otherwise, you're just being asocial...

Oh, yes, I love being sarcastic! You wasted half of a post for this?! I wasn't even rude this time! Strange...
Anyways, I'm sure everybody will hear back from Emirates soon. My friend just got the Golden Call today from EK: her final interview was in Belgrade, 2nd October.
The other thing which I was thinking - really just guessing! - that they want to maintain the groups mixed with different nationalities. (Maybe it's totally a stupid thought, I don't know.) My group had 15 people from 11 nationalities and we were always encouraged to mix and change tables.
Or they have a lot of applications from the London AD and it takes more time to sort them out. Maybe a different group of people is working on the London-group and they work slowlier than the Belgrade-group.
I just heard that the first ab-initios are at the college and started their training! I thought the first training starts 8th November (pprune) since the freeze but it looks like they started already. Most of them must be the people who were hired in Dubai in September. After all, they were in Dubai and ready to start.

Vancouver Open Day
Hey all,
I'll be attending the open day in Vancouver on Oct. 24. If anyone's going, let me know!
Oh, another thing. I live in Toronto but I just happen to be in Vancouver around the 24th, and I'm coming back to Toronto on the 27th. How long does it take to get a call from Emirates for second interview? and one-on-one? Should I stay longer in Vancouver? Well, it will all depend on whether I get through all the stages lol
Any answer will be greatly appreciated.
Have a good day eveyone!

The best people to answer that question are the agency that are organizing the preselections and that would be Konexion, I got hired last yeat around the same time in Montreal, and it took a week from the preselection, meeting Emirates and going to a Final Interview !

vancouver open day
hi luna,
when we went to the open day in vancouver in jan this year, it took about 9 days to complete everything. that was from a open day on a sat, to the final interview on the monday 9 days later.
we had quite a few ppl having to fly back to vancouver to participate after 'passing' the konexion screening. and most of the interview activities were done over the wkends except for the final interview.
hope that helps
