contract
hi there!
I have one question.I've received today the mail for the medicals and the contract.But it is mentionned that it's a single status contract.Or I'm married and i told it to the recruiter during the FI,and I mentionned it also when I applied in the website.
So is there a different contract for married person? If yes,what can I do?
thanks

I remember seeing that form of a friend about that long ago too Mari, it let you put 'none'; the one I filled out at my FI didn't have that option. I asked the recruiter & she told me to put 'something, what religion are your parents' so even though I personally don't have religion, I had to put Christian because there is not any more an option to put 'none', or atheist or whatever.
Hehe, it reminds me of a story in the news a few years ago in Australia, for the census, they had a space for religions not included on the form. People even put 'Jedi'!!! The next form, it only had tick boxes and one for "Other", but no space to write what it was...

Curious
Shielacc, How did your AD go?
Mine is tomorrow - NERVES!
I'm curious about one thing and I doubt anyone really knows the answer, but if you do please enlighten me. I just wonder why they have OD's in certain places or at certain times and AD's in others. What's the deciding factor

My guess is that in places where too much people show up at an OD they need to make a prior selection and so they have only ad
for example in romania, before april this year they had only od's but after in april showed up about 600 people they decided to collaborate with a recruiting agency for the shortlisting and they now have ad's

Dusseldorf OD/AD
Hi, I'd like to say hi to everyone I met today (actually yesterday already) in Dusseldorf, Germany. It would be great if some of you read this, and also to have new about the successful ones. It was a nice day, I was so surprised when I passed the first selections, the feeling of being almost there was so unique and amazing!! And I think I'm going to try again.

Thanks Sapphire Blu.
I attended the AD today, turns out there was 90 of us yesterday and we started with 25 this morning. After the first round 9 people were unsuccessful and asked to leave. This left 16 of us. After the second round, myself and another girl were told we were unsuccessful.
I think this is mainly because I did not finish year 12. It states High School or equivalent on the requirements however I went straight in to the work force after completing year 11.
I'm not as upset as I thought I would be, the whole experience was a huge learning curve and now I am determined to complete my HSC through TAFE and apply for other airlines or wait 6 months and apply again.
Would love to hear from any of the girls who came today!

I had my FI about a week after yours.. and they sent me an email several days ago saying my application was on hold for upto 3 months...
(status was and still is 'APPROVAL IN PROGRESS')
I think something to do with not having any spots left for guys in any of the current planned training schools (until at least early march)
Did you get the same email?
Otherwise maybe they do have a spot for you now.. you should give the HR a call and talk to your recruitment coordinator.

giving up
Hi guys,
I had my FI like 7 weeks ago, just before the deadline (after 6 weeks) a lady called me that she needs me to send my picture once again, because my jacket didnt match with the colour of my skirt- no one told us during the interview that this could be a Problem (it has been like two weeks by now and I still do not have any result from them)...I applied for Etihad as well, I got a call four days ago that my day of joining is 16th January (they did not care that my skirt was different colour)...I guess Im done with waiting for the call from Emirates
I will better take the offer that has come already cause this is a very uncertain game... anyway, Good Luck to all of you!!!

So guys, the Nairobi AD took place this weekend. I had lots of fun, the venue was amazing (Thank You The Tribe, Nairobi!) and the girls, gorgeous. I didn't get the invite but took two friends who had invites and two others who didn't have invites. We arrived at the venue at a quarter to 8 in the morning, and proceeded to be ushered in through to this amazing conference room in the most beautiful hotel I have ever seen in my twenty-five years on earth hehe! Check out Tribe Hotel, luxury hotel in Nairobi, Kenya: Home. Now, back to the day's account. The recruiters got in at around 9.15 a.m, and proceeded to say hi before putting on a video on Life as Cabin Crew in Emirates and Dubai as a whole. After the video, we were encouraged to ask lots of questions and one of the recruiters gave us some insight on life in Dubai and her own experiences. She was frank, funny and exhaustive in her question answering session. We were then asked to line up and give her our invites , after which we were asked to step aside, and the room divided into two, using chairs placed in a circular formation. She then asked number 1 to 40 to get into the room, and 41 to 98 to wait for an hour while the previous numbers did the first group discussion. Me and two of my friends didn't have invites so she took our CV's and thanked us for coming. We however decided to stick around for a large part of the day. Flash forward to two hours later, one of the ladies that was in my posse made it to the second stage, which is the English test, while the other got eliminated in the first round. I had a strong feeling that the one who had made it to the second stage was going to make it all the way. The rest of us in my posse spent the remainder of the day drinking yogurt, taking photos and encouraging the other girls who were still in the running towards becoming Emirates Cabin Crew. You can imagine my relief when at 5.30pm, after the rest of us had left, when I got a call from the remaining girl telling us that she had made it past the last group discussion! I was beyond happy! Despite my throbbing headache and slight nausea hehe! So all in all, we were 98 in the morning, and only 13 made it to the finals. The remaining lady has her Final Interview slated for Wednesday, so guys send your collective prayers and good energies to her! I believe she has a chance at this, and is so close to her dream. I will post pics of our day sometime this evening for all you folks. Finally, I wanna say that it is not impossible to become an EK cabin crew. You just have to believe in yourself, get support from friends, and do your best. Good Luck to All!

on hold email
Hi Perkin1
To the day, 7 weeks after my FI I got the same email and put it down to the spaces avail in training (from what i read here). I mean, if they diddnt want us we would have got an unsuccessful email. only thing is, all those who did get the on hold email will be competing against eachother. I wonder how far the plan their training college... How did you find out about the limited spaces in training? my status still shows approval in progress too. I hope we get through to training college and we will maybe start at the same time! how cool would that be if we both got the GC!!
I hope this works for all of us!
take care
