Progress update

Hi guys,

Just an update on my progress for you lovelies out there who have been encouraging me:

1/11/10 - I received an email asking me to sign and send back a Uniform Standards Declaration form
5/11/2010 - I emailed that form back to them (It was 2 days late so I was freaking out!)
7/11/2010 - I have been locked out of my account and a message comes up saying "You will be contacted by your Recruitment coordinator at the earliest"

Hopefully my phone will ring soon!

Good luck everyone!

Sam

PS - A question for those of you already working at CC in Dubai. I was wondering if it is possible to stay in a relationship? I've been with my boyfriend for 5 years and we have discussed this whole Emirates situation and have decided to break up if I get the job. This upsets me of course so I'm wondering if any of you know anyone that has successfully maintained a long-distance relationship while working as CC, while the partner is back at home? I'm kinda hoping that I will be so busy and overwhelmed once I get to Dubai that I won't have time to get too upset about it.

Yes, I know a girl from London who has been from her boyfriend apart for 4 years and recently got engaged. 90% of the distance relationships end up with break-up sooner or later. However, lots of Philippinos and Thai girls are having husbands and kids at home. You can try and you will see how it goes.

miyaco and Himmelmat

Miyaco don't worry, I'm actually missing two of them, but they will charge you for those that you missed with your first salary or maybe since you're just missing some they will give it to you for free.

Still waiting final approval keep me updated best of luck

Nairobi AD

Well after three applications to attend AD's in 2010 and no success so far in getting invites, I'm done applying Emirates from Nairobi. I don't know whether its the lack of prior work expirience, photo's, letter of application or a combination of all three but its so deflating not to even get a chance to see if you are good enough for the job. I'm guessing the only way is to attend an open day but unfortunately none are offered in Nairobi. Its my dream to fly and see the world and whether its Emirates, Qatar, etihad, Qantas or whichever airline, I will fly even if it means flying to other destinations to attend OD's . Wish you all better luck than mine. Cheers

I am also leaving my boyfriend behind, as much as it saddens me, he understands and knows this is a great opportunity for me I know a couple who were working for differnet airlines and were apart 3 years, a girl I spoke to at work tonight lived in Saudi Arabia for 2 years while her husband and baby lived in South Africa, I hope it works out for you.


Also does anyone know what this Image & Uniform Standards Form is? I never got one. My DOJ is the 29th of November but I am worried they will send me away earlier to be in Dubai on the 29th

Mari, Youyito, Bunnypr & Ele87

Thank you so much for you replies. It has given me a lot to think about. It's nice to know that some couples can survive the long distance! Whatever is meant to be will be!

Well done for being invited to the AD

When did you initially apply online? how long did you wait to hear from EK?

I have also applied to Etihad, and waited less than 24hrs to be invited for an AD

I applied to EK on the 2nd November


Good Luck for your AD

not interested candidates

Duckling,

you don't seem to be a serious candidate. Did you take the time and spend at least an afternoon to read through the information on the Emirates homepage and on this forum?!

You are totally lost, no doubt. Give it a try, though.

Hi Youito, Thank you very much for your kind reply.
Actually in the UK we attach pictures for jobs relating to entertainment and things like that, so I've never had to submit a picture.
I have many standing up and things but I'm going to go and get my pictures taken, I'm doing a full tim ecourse "Introduction to air cabin crew"
Its six months long and so far we covered first aid and defib, airfares and ticketing, customer service, numeracy etc

im also working part time and im 22 years old. I am 5 ft 4 and weight 7.5 stones Thank you

On regard to the message left by Mari of Not interested Candidtaes:
I do apologise Mary , I fail to come through cv's or in writing that is the reason to why I'm stressed I feel i do not come out on paper.
Yourfeed back will also be taken into consideration, i would like to know why though you thought im not interested.
I have read the Emirates recruitment page, infact I did a full presentation in college from the history of Emirates up until theire present moment in time.
many of my insecurities have actually arised from this forum where people have mentioned things like white teeth etc etc, not that it matters Mashallah i do fine teeth if nto brilliant white, and happy to say im told i have a beautiful smile too

annnyyyyway i'm more concerned i may not be called to the open day thats my only worry,
I'll sumit the photographs and give it a try Mari :0)
