OP Brisbane, march 10
Hi !
I'm going to the OP in Brisbane next month and I would like to know if I had to register online before - I guess not, but I prefer to be sure -.
It's the first time I will apply for an airline so I'm a bit stressed. I'm quite young, I'm only turning 21 on the 14th, but I had to try anyway.
@EKboi See you there.
Is there an english test ? Because it's quite obvious that I'm not a native english speaker and I may need to open some more books.

Hello guys
I'm new on this forum and I do have a question for you guys regarding Open Days :
If I go to an Open Day and I get accepted , I take my final interview the next day?or the next week?
Can anybody give me an example how an Open Day Interview went ? From the first day to the last?
Thank you so much guys

thank u Mr. Dubai 
when you go to an open day firstly you drop your cv and if they choose you they call u afternoon to invite the next day. if u are succesfull at second day your final interview will be in three days not next week, in turkey o.d was like this.

Hi everyone,
Good luck to all those going to OD/AD!
And to all waiting for replies!
I want to ask anyone that did all this before, I got my final approval and just wondering what do I do now?
Sit back and wait for my DOJ? The following steps (on portal) like travel arrangements is up to them.. feeling weird waiting..
My DOJ is 28/04/2012.

English Test
From what I heard the English test can be quite basic. (As you can tell I have few spelling errors myself...not a native English speaking person, from EU as well)
I bought this book called Interview Master Cabin Crew (the girl who wrote it actully got hired by EK after many faild attempts at other airlines and became an recruter) good book. Helped me a bit.
The example given in the book:
Listening:
* you will see a picture and you will hear four short statements. When you hear the statements, look at the picture and choose the statement that best describes what you see in the picture.
or
*you will hear a question of statement, followed by three responses. You are to choose the best response to each question or statement.
Reading:
Chose one word which best cmpletes the following sentence:
Because the equitment is very delicate, it must be handed with _____
(a) Caring (B) Careful (C) Core (D) Cafefully
---------------------------
So these are just examples....its very basic for what you can see.
Hope this helps

Newbie
First of all a huge thank you to Mari and ThatRedHatgirl< your posts on the recruitment process at EK, has been a tremendous help, would not have made it to the FI without it. Today marks the 2 week anniversary of my FI and I am still "under review". In my FI group, already 10 people have gotten the GC. I am slowly losing my mind... I think I am at an disadvantage because I did not do the last group discussion. Myself and 4 other girls were mistakenly given the unsucccesful letters at round 1 and so we went home. At the next stage the recruiters realised this and called us all back, but the venue was an hours drive from my house, so I was not in time for the discussion. When I got back, they apologized for the mix-up and said they were going to put us through to the FI. I attended the FI, and I was able to answer all of their questions. Now I am starting to wonder if I am at a disadventage. Mari, has something like this happened before that you are aware of? I am stressing a bit, I went through to the FI for QR as well, but I would much rather join EK.

Open days in SA
The open days are held by Icrew recruitment consultants in SA, not by Emirates,there are too many applicants for the EK recruiters to sort through in the 5 days they are in SA. The open day I went to last month in CPT had 400 applicants, the SA agency whittled it down to 80 people for the AD and only about 20-something made it to the FI. I recommend you go through the SA recruiters, the are ex- EK cabin crew and very nice, just google them and you will be able to apply directly on their website. Hope this helps... Good Luck!

Hi Blobbba
Thank you! you too congratulations!
No I don't know who it is yet. I think maybe because my DOJ is far still.
On the portal the part (training inductions) in it there is supposed to be a link, right?
The bold (introduction to training officer) is supposed to the link, that's what I herd.

The Book
The book is called:
Interview Mastery Cabin Crew (Personal Training Program) by Carrie Loren
This is the link for Amazon....I got it from there as well.
Good book, great pointers, tuches a bit on NLP (Neuro-linguistic programming) which my partner studys.
What the book helped me the most is to make my CV (resume) sound more mature and I knew what subjects and topics to focus on since this being my first cabin crew job application.
