From what i've heard there are 4 new buildings and all the new joiners are acommodated there.
These buildings are a bit far from the center of the town, but are ok to live.Pool on the roof, gym.No shops, no restaurants, etc.You can take a taxi to go downtown.It will cost you around 40 dhs.
Good luck and have a nice trip to Dubai!

accomodation

I have no idea but please, do write about your building after you arrive. I'm sure some people would find the information useful.

Block Two Mizin building

Hi Triza,

my friend just wrote me that she is leaving in this building. As Mari said, it's far from the mall and sometimes hard to find a taxi, but like my friend said, you get used to it. Rooms are nice and you have your own bedroom and shower. I'm waiting to see if they are 2 or 3 flatmates. But like my friend said, you are like in the middle of the desert.

Post Medicals

Hey Triza, thanks I'm doing well! I was just in the midst of medicals and I just finished uploading it.

There is a new checklist form (I think because I haven't seen it before) with a lot of insightful informations to read before your medicals :

PLEASE READ BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THE MEDICAL CHECK
1) Please read carefully through Page 1 and the APPENDIX 1 of the pre employment medical forms attached below
2) Appendix - 2 Please fills all the 39 questions. If the answer is yes you need to give a brief detail right next to it.
3) Ensure that SEPARATE BLOOD TEST REPORTS are uploaded for all the tests listed on Appendix 2 Part B.
a) Kindly note Hepatitis B test is an ANTIGEN TEST and NOT ANTIBODY TEST and that needs to be mentioned on the report
b) (Females only) Circle NOT INDICATED for cervical smear test on Appendix 2 part B is if it is not applicable to you or if you are a virgin.
c) DO NOT upload the chest x-ray film as we require ONLY THE WRITTEN CHEST X-RAY REPORT
4) Appendix-3 (ophthalmic) if this section is not applicable to you please do not upload any form of document. If the question number 23 in the APPENDIX 2 is ticked appropriately we will action accordingly.
5) Appendix-4 (Vaccination certificate) - Ensure the form is filled with the vaccination records you currently hold and it is certified by the doctor with his stamp. You may however choose to complete the form prior to joining date.
a) Do not upload your vaccination cards or any other kind of vaccination certificate.
b) If you are unable to get all the vaccines completed on time you may do so in Dubai at your own cost. However we recommend that the 1st 7 vaccines listed should be completed prior to joining.
c) Appendix 4 can be uploaded with even ONE record filled in. As some vaccines may take time to complete and requires a break. So you can get the doctor to sign and upload even with one record.
6) Appendix -5 (Dental certificate) –Make sure the dentist circles YES/NO against the statement “Dentally fit to take employment and complies with standards above” and certifies the document with his stamp. Do not upload ANY x-ray films or bitewings. (carry them when travelling to Dubai)

Translation
ALL THE MEDICAL REPORTS SHOULD BE TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH.
You could even clearly handwrite the translation of the results on the original document and have the translation part stamped and signed by the doctor.

the last OD in my country was 14th May 2011, i wonder when the next one will be.
I have one question : To be able to get the job of a flight attendant with EK do you need to have a 'veneer' like set of teeth?
My teeth are white (no stains nothing) but not well aligned! that is a major issue right?

Congratulations to all those who made it till dubai

Look at the ab-initio and graduation videos of emirates cabin crew on youtube. You'll see the expectations about the look.

New York Open Call

Hey Everyone!

It's so great to see that so many other people are in the same boat as me. I recently had a final interview on May 30th. I would like to believe that things went really well. A lot of the other people there from my group had to retake the personality test, some even had to take an I.Q test?

I didn't have to retake anything like that, nor did this other girl who was there with me. I'm taking that as a good sign, yes?

In addition, the only thing missing from my application documentation was my proof of current employment. I sent it to them a day after the interview was over via e-mail and I still have not received any confirmation from them stating that they received it. Do you know if this is common? I know Torontofly was apprehensive about divulging any of their secret numbers/contacts in Dubai, but does anyone out there have an additional contact e-mail/number for them? and/or could let me know if this is common?

Hahaha I am going CRAZY. The wait is sitting on me like a boulder.


All the best to everyone!

Fleity89

Hi Fleity89 Congratulations on making it to the final interview!
I was in exactly the same situation that you are in, I handed in all my documents at the final interview except my proof of employment. I emailed it to them within the next few days and I too didn't get any feedback confirming that they received it. But as long as you sent it to the correct address you have nothing to worry about. If there's anything that they require of you, they will get in touch with you. So just wait for your Golden Call and relax Easier said than done I know!
Good Luck

Hey Shatinho,

Thank you so much for your positive words. It truly does help. Did you have your Final Interview recently? How long did it take you to get your "Golden Call"?


All the best!!!

And thanks again!

Definately.

Stay calm and do not loose hope.

You wrote a follow-up e-mail. Good.

You should get your answer in 3-4 weeks. Write again if you don't get anything. There is a bit of chaos here: tons of people are joining... Well, be patient and strong.
