Emirates - Wannabes & Recruitment VIII

[ally23x]

Wen

I don't know your circumstances....if you travel a long way, spend a lot of money or have to skip work to attend this OD. But even if you have to do all this, just feel confident and do your best to achieve your goal.

If you really want this then you should go for it... Decide what would worth most for you and if doing your best to become EK Cabin Crew and going to this OD is that, then this is the answer to your question!!!

Best of luck and remember to share your experience so that others could learn from it

hello guys im new here i just wanted to asked to anyone who attended EK's OD in KUL before. Im from another country and would like to attend this OD in KUL since still have to travel and incur a lot of expenses i might as well make sure im making the most out of it.

is this OD open for all or i still have to through the agency SASS before attending?

are they accepting male's for this OD?

what is the usual process? i have attended AD/OD/FI of QR but unable to pass the FI i just want to know if the recruitment process is the similar.


thank you guys.

Well Ally,

I had actually attended twice the OD in Kuala Lumpur.

For male applicants, the agency just collected our resume and photos then we were asked to leave the place.

But for female applicants, it was another scenario, they were invited to enter another room and that was the place where they started the pre-selection. That is why i said it is really unfair for male applicants as we didn't even have the chance to go through the pre-selection stage.

Hello Loloy,

Since you are a male applicant, then i suggest that you don't waste your money and time to come to Malaysia. You should go to other countries where they don't have the appointed agency. Read my previous post and you will know why it is not advisable to attend the OD in Malaysia.

online status

Hello!
I'm new here. I just wanted to ask a question that everyone seems to know except me . I'm waiting for my GC but all of you talk about your online status (applied, approval in progress...) How can I know mine? They didn't tell me nothing about that in my FI.
Thanks very much in advance.

[loloy101]

Thank you.
Apparently mostly is Asia...KUL,SIN,MNL, has an appointed agency.

So sad. -):

Hi ViaMarconi... congrats! I can imagine how excited you are...
Don`t worry for your medicals, it`s not complicated. If they `ve sent you the e-mail to log into your account so wait for some hours that maybe thay are delayed updating the portals.
Good luck...!!!

Hello

Do you know if the documents translated in english by an authorised translator are ok or do they need to be signed by a public notary ?

Thank you!

Hi Everyone, Mari

Hi guys, I know I've been Missing in Action for quite a while now. Busy schedules is what it is. Now, I asked a friend of mine to apply for the upcoming Nairobi AD. Problem is, she has slight deformity on her left hand in that her hand got burnt when she was little, and the skin was burnt and formed scar tissue, and the hand itself is bent at an angle. She can use her hand - it doesn't hinder her from carrying out day-to-day activities. Mari, do you think she is eligible for EK?

flying out in 4 days!

hi guys!

i will be flying to the sandpit on monday. is there anyone else on here that is flying on the 25th at 2300hr from JFK? if so, hit me up and we can meet at the airport.

i have lots of questions:

so my housing info just came in and i am placed at Al Faltat Building, Al Mankool Area. who knows anything about this building/area? i am kinda glad i am not on Sheikh Zayed Road. it just seems too industrial for me. but what do i know:-)

i have been studying for a few weeks now........any insider info on what i should know for sure before i get there would be helpful........any insider info on ANYTHING would be great.

i know that we get an advance on our first pay check when we arrive.....when is the next pay day? just asking b/c i have had an unexpected $1000 misshap so i will not be traveling with as much money as i had planned on. SUCKS!!!

this might sound silly, but we dont have to dress in "business attire" for the flight over do we?

if anyone can answer any of these question i would be greatful

thanks,

jessica

Thank you so much! I'm leaving on Monday and I already got my location it's Al Bannai Building in Al Nahda II, anyoe know about this place?

The medicals included a dental revision, blood tests, vaccines, chest X-ray, oftalmological revision. It took me a little bit over a week because I worked and I couldn't do it all in one go, but in any case, they give you 2 weeks to complete them all.

[purelife]

Hey Alltheravens!

HAHA LOL, actually I just came back from Al Bannai Building (was visiting a friend) I also live in Al Nahda, and that building is the same as mine... it's nice, 2 bedroom apartment, each own bathroom, visitors bathroom, living and dining room with nice (not old) furniture. Kitchen. Room to hang clothes, etc..
I actually like mine a lot, each building has a pool and a gym in the roof.

Al Nahda is further away from the "city" BUT the apartments are bigger, and we are close to training collage/headquarters/airport, so my point of view: if we just want to go out, we can take the Emirates bus and go!

Hope you have a nice flight! (don't stress about the pre course workbook, they don't even check it here... )

Jessica nickname: jjohns

Hey I imagine your very excited!!! Don't worry about silly questions, there are no silly questions!!!!

I have no idea what area or building is that, sorry..
FORGET the studying..I studied soooo much of the pre course workbook, been here a month now.. do you think they even ask for it?
And they teach you everything you need to know in class, it's A LOT of information in a VERY SHORT period of time..so quit studying and say goodbye to your friends and family with all the time you have left!
Advice: Oh my gosh...I forgot so many things that I really needed, sunglasses, hair dryer, etc... so a tip that I would recomend you to do is do a list of everything you use daily at home so you dont forget it! Trust me, all of my friends forgot stuff they needed back home. lol

You will be given 2500DHS, 2000 are deducted from first two salaries and the 500 are a "gift". Next pay check will be a month later.
$1000 US dollars is very good to bring, more than enough. (obviously depends on the amount of money you spend... be careful with that).

Your question is not silly at all (I also wondered that lol) nope, you do not have to wear buisness attire when you get here, ONLY on the first day of induction, after that you will be wearing training uniform.

Tip: bring pictures of family, friends, etc. Download skype before coming to your computer and make a username etc. It's blocked here and there is no way to install it if you dont have it already.

Best of luck!!!!!!!

AD

Hey good people. One week since I applied for Nairobi AD, no reply yet. Should I start getting pessimistic? I really want to get the invite and see how it goes but it sucks not even getting thee chance to know if you can make it. Keeping my fingers crossed.

[Micheline]

Just a quick question to those who already received their ticket/already joined...

Can we really take only 30 kg in our hold luggage??? That is soooo not enough for me hahahaha

[purelife]

micheline

Micheline,

why do you think it's 30 kg? Its 50kg for BOTH (2) suitcases. You can take a carry on, respecting the maximum airline weight.

[Fly_01]

hi,
so the sum of all our baggage is 50Kg, right?

thans. Lui

[purelife]

baggage

The sum of the CHECKED baggage is 50kg, total kg for 2 suitcases (25 kg each).

Besides this you can take a carry on, respective the maximum weight of the airline. Good luck.

[Micheline]

Purelife

Well I thought it was only 30 kg as this is what my ticket says.. I did read about the 50 kg but I couldn't find it anywhere on te official papers so I thought I might better ask...

But thanks anyway, I'll be packing till I have 50
