Hej 
After my status was approval in progress it took around week when I got: You will be contacted at the earliest and after I got My GC.
After GC it took around three days while I got email and then again I could log in in my account in Emirates Recruitment homepage. And there you have a contract and everything about Medical cheks.
Hope it helped you,
Be patient

@Helya: Since one of the perks is dental insurance, your missing tooth shouldn't be too much of a hassle for them. As long as it's not noticeable and the rest of your teeth are fine, presentable and require minimum work/cost less for them, it shouldn't be a problem. Don't take my word for it though, I'm only assuming this to be the case.

As long as you cant see it with a wide smile you will be fine. They check these things in the interview you know when you are doing the reach test and they ask you questions---that is when they are taking a very good look at you they are seeing if you have acne scars, missing teeth when you talk etc... I wouldn't worry too much about this

hej, thank s for your replies!
If I talk and smile you cannot see that it is missing, if I have to make my smile very wide and I say that I have missing teeth there, than you pay more attention and see.
The thing is, I want to fix it, but I just do not have enough time...
All of my rest teeth are in good condition.
I hope it will be ok..

It will be marked on your dental form, the dentist will say that it is not visible (if it isn't)...I believe you wont be able to claim on any company dental package as it is a pre-existing condition. Get it fixed when you can...if you are really worried you can always send them a message on the portal.

The Open Day can be anything from a CV drop off to having the AD and FI in the evening... you should be prepared for anything! Most of the time the AD is the next day for successful candidates but that also is not always the case... As you are in Dubai there may be a language requirement.. They are not always stated on the website.
If you got an assessment invitation before then you have already passed the pre- screening once before, the difference is this time you need to do it in person.
Bellarina That's fantastic! So now the burning question, your DOJ is????

Hey everyone!!
Congrats to all have received the GC! Thats amazing stuff
So I'm attending an OD this weekend...I attended one last year and was cut right after I told them I had a tattoo. So my approach this time is to not tell them, what are everyone's thoughts on this? It's a small snowflake halfway down my neck, not visible with a shirt on (because it's low enough).
WHAT TO DO?! I figure I won't tell them and then IF I get in I would remove it before I head over there...Need your help!!
Thanks guys

COngratulations for all your GC (bellairna I was specially concerned about your status... ENJOY!!!
Could I ask you a question people? I'm a little bit worried because I applied online AFTER my FI, and my status changed some days later to (under review) no changes since then... (Could I know how much time stayed ur status in "under review" before it changed to "approval in progess" the only girl i'm in touch from my FI had her status in approval in progress few days ago)!!!!
I'm so worried!!!!
Thanks for all!!!

baccrat I never finished my application on-line, and applied to attend the OD in Seville in August.
I walked-in, and my status never changed to Under Review or Approval in Progress, but they blocked me to access the portal to: "you will be contacted by..."
So I guess the finished my application online...
Good Luck to everyone!!

Thank you so much to everyone on here. Helped me so much. Especially with the nerves
Ok heres how it went down for me
Final Interview - 28th August
Grooming Email - 25th September
Golden Call - 6th October
Guys dont stress about your status online, I stressed so much and checked it like ten times a day, it never changed, just remained under review and I got my Golden Call
so there you go
Everyone on here was so helpful getting me through it all.
I will go more in depth if this helps anyone, im glad to help
There was an Open Day here on the 26th of August but I was unable to make it as I was working. I got the invite to go to the assesment day which was the very next day.
Going into this, I decided to be my myself. I know this sounds silly. But I had previously tried for EK twice before and never made it past round two. So this time I went prepared and comfortable. I was completely one hundred percent myself. I even noticed during the course of the day i was very laughy and sometimes i was sitting on my hands :/ haha
They showed us a video of Dubai and the life style there and comments from FA's currently working for Emirates.
Than we were divided into two groups, I was in the second group and we were asked to come back at a certain time so we went out for lunch.
During the whole course of the day. I spoke to basically almost everyone. When it was my groups turn to go in. We were than divided again into two smaller groups, than asked to tell everyone about the person to your left and what their greatest acomplishment is. One of the recruiters stressed the words "please talk to the person on your left and than you have to present to the group what his/her greatest acomplishment is, and guys please keep it short". So i did, i stood up, spoke loud enough and clear and tried to make eye contact with the group. The whole time smiling
After that its end of Round One and people start getting cut. You are given a piece of paper which will explain to you whether or not you have made it to the next round.
The second round, and the group was alot smaller now. I would say it was about fifteen of us. Sitting in a circle. We were given a scenario where we are check in staff at the Emirates counter and our flight is fully booked. We are given a list of important people ie: Very famous person, Very Wealthy persons daughter etc and we had to discuss and chose who we thought should not get on the flight and who should. During this round I smiled and agreed with my group memebers as they were all on point and had the same ideas as me. Being myself, I chose not to talk too much and when I did speak my piece, it was short, clear and I put my point across as best I could. I wasnt loud or cutting people off and disagreeing with anyone.
Than its the end of Round Two and than comes the pieces of paper again.
There was about seven of us left and it was almost dinner time We were given forms to fill and told to go home and complete a Test that they will send to our email addresses and return tommorow for our Final one on one Interviews
I was about ten minutes early to my final interview. Dressed in a black skirt, white dress shirt and a black jacket with black heels. Hair tied back and lip stick on The recruiters were lovely and it was more like a chat to me. There were, ofcourse questions, which you will find on this forum. After my final interview they asked me to do the shapes test than it was done
And today at around 6pm Australian time, I got my Golden Call
My advice. Dont be scared or nervous going to the assesement days. I noticed when i had tried for emirates 2-3 years ago. I was nervous and sat as if i was having tea with the queen, back straight, hands on my lap etc. It just wasnt me and I probably looked really uncomfortable. I guess, they see this and know when you are being You.
Go in as yourself, smile, ofcourse be a lady/gentleman. Talk to people around you. I was like half an hour early for the assesement day so I made some amazing friends during the first half hour and we just all got along so well Dress smart. Be prepared and let your personality shine.
Also, I am married and have been married for three years. Something that I thought would be a definite No. If they love you, they will take you. So dont give up. This was my third time trying for emirates. Guess what they say is true Third times a charm
All the very best to everyone

Congrats Bellarina. I have been following your drama and I'm so excited for you!
Question: I was never asked to apply online before my FI. Is there any way I can track my status in case I sign up on the Emirates Careers website?
It's been almost 2 weeks now and I can't barely sleep.
Congrats to those who got the GC once again and keep your thumbs up for us who are waiting!
