almost one year later
hey all,
its been a while. i've been working for Emirates now for almost a year and from someone who is still considered relatively new let me just tell you year its worth it. going through the open days, interviews, medicals and uprooting can be stressful but after a while, after you get settled in it all gets easier. work can be demanding on your body and sometimes your mind so having a good attitude helps a long way and can make the difference in many situations (trust me ). you can take some time and read my old threads. hope it helps someone.
good luck to all going to their open days and beyond. hope to see you in Dubai.

Trinidad OD
FYI you can NOT register at an Open Day or an Assessment day if you would have attended less that 6 months ago. Yes you read it correct Open Days are now included in the 6 month rule
. If you submitted a CV at an open day and didn't make it to Assessment you cannot submit your CV again under 6 months, if you attended an Assessment Day and did not make it to FI you cannot attended again under 6 months. I submitted an OD last November 51/2 months ago I got an online invitation to attend an OD today and i could not submit my CV EVEN THOUGH I HAD AN INVITE so close yet so far
. I guess i'll see recruiters again in November.
Good luck to all attempting and waiting. See you all in Dubai soon
Cheers
Danny

Did you actually go to the OD and submitted your CV and they turned you away because you did not wait 6 months? I guess they are cracking the rules and being strict now about attendees going to either both OD or AD now. Wow they are getting strict and harder to get in

Dental examination
Hi guys,
Just wondering what exactly Emirates check for in you dental examination and what dental issues would prevent you from being successful? Whilst visually my teeth are fine I confess I do have a few fillings. Any advice offered would be much appreciated.

Dental
As long as your teeth are healthy you are ok. Fillings are ok to have. You just can't have any cavities that are not filled. They also expect for your teeth to be regularly checked and for your dentist to sign off that they are healthy and clean.

Hello everybody, i count myself among the lucky ones who got the '' you will contacted...'' status a few days ago 
. i attended an assessment day in Bucharest on 26th of March and after 16 day i got this status and waiting for the golden call. i have to say that this is not the first interview i went to, i also went to an OD in Budapest for Qatar, but got eliminated after the second group activity.
I was very stressed out for my first interview, but when i went for Emirates, i have to say that just because i wasn't nervous at all i managed to nail the job
) i travelled the whole night before the interview so i was a little bit of a zombie...so no nerves at all..i was just like a compliant sheep who always smiled and listened and talked gently.
all the activities were the same as mentioned in this thread, and all the questioned for the FI were those written on this forum ( i had answers prepared for each of them).
I am now waiting to find out my DOJ and do my medicals which i think is the most difficult part of this process (ppl who live in my country understand why). good luck to all of you, if anybody is leaving for dubai in june, i hope we'll meet there.hugs and kisses!! i promise i'll share my thoughts about dubai

hi
Hey guys! Do you know if emirates does want to recruit you if you have a child?
I had gone to the qatar open day and it seems that they are not keen to recruit those who already have children! I think the recruiters with qatar are mean and rude! saying you should concentrate on your personal life, and if you are studying you should terminate your study and anything else you doing now before joining!! DUH is IT not our decision to make!! everything in life is about choices!
And since i had child i gained some baby fat! i am not very thin! are they very fussy about your weight on the OD OR AD?

hey congratulations... im still waiting for them to call, my status has been you'll be contacted for 6 days now and stil nothing... I'll say your right about the accomodation thing and training places aswell... I wouldn't worry about it if I were you, they will let you know when everything is sorted.. from what I've been reading they usually tell you about 2 or 2 n a half weeks before your D.O.J and then they send you the ticket and visa four days before departure... Hope this helps, please correct me if I'm wrong.....
see you in dubai hopefully...

hey leyna my status changed from applied to approval in progress 15 days after the F.I.... What I noticed is if you tell them your available immediately then your application will process alot quicker than if you told them you're not available for a while... so I wouldn't worry about if you said you're not available until June or later...

I wouldn't worry about it if I were you in this case no news is good news... I'll keep my fingers crossed for you... I had to take that logical test at the end of my F.I but it makes no difference if you take it or not because I figured out the reason they give you that test is not to measure your i.q.. you only get that test if you contradict yourself alot in the personality test both tests are to see if you possess an extrovert or introvert personality...
try not to think about it too much... I felt very positive vibes during and after my interview... just keep with the feeling you came out of the interview with and try not to think negative...
