I cannot remember exactly how many days did it take them , but approximately, from 2-3 weeks! i got crazy too! :} But I kept callin them everyday and followed-up my file process.. This is what you should do to make sure that everything is going right..
|
No - thats exactly what you should not do! Have some respect for HR, they are processing hundreds of people and someone calling on a daily basis as if they are the only person that matters is discourteous and irritating. Trust me, you will be attended to in a timely and professional manner. Give them a break and have a little patience!!

My Last Post
Hey guys,
I arrived in Dubai 2 weeks ago, in a really good appartment, sharing with a cool guy who has been here for 2 and a half years, in central dubai. Training is going really well, If your going for it, then stick with it, it's all worth it in the end, Juat a word of warning for you though, There are so many crew starting, 6 classes every week, that they are finding it hard to put everyone in permenant accomodation, and you may be in a hotel apartment in the desert for the first few months... but apart from that its all great!! |
for easynick
haha
all new joiners when they are accepted :hmm: they say: :}this is my last post:= so funny and so egoistic:hmm: you have to share with us your experince in training that is it good luck:ok: |
business attire?
hello everyone,
I'm starting with Emirates soon (6 weeks!) my DOJ is July 11th so I'll be starting training in mid-July. I know that I'm supposed to wear business attire to training and I'm wondering what appropriate business attire would be when it's 120 degrees! Should I just wear full suit or is there something appropriate I can wear in such heat? Any info would be great! I've also read the last few posts about a new uniform? I would love to see it, so if anyone has pictures please post them. thank you! |

Hi to everyone from Ecuador
I'm really happy that you have joined emirates, I work in Lan Airlines as a cabin crew in B/C, but i really want to apply to work for emirates but I'm afraid because my writing in english is pretty bad:{... but i speak and understand 100% english:ok:, could you please tell me what kind of english test they take on the interviews?? Thank you so much in advance for your response. |
Nikedo15 Why Do You Write Like This Mate?
Being upgraded to F/C on the way to DXB wasn't in your contract either, so, GROW UP and smell the Arabic coffee. YOWzer You will be given the uniform on day one, so, you will only need a suit for the first few days, the rest of the training will be in uniform, (the old one). :} |
medical in london
I am posting this information for anyone who are searching for any help in obtaining the necessary medical reports before getting final approval!
When I contacted my local NHS GP in London regarding my medicals, this was the answer i got... "What do you want an x-ray for, we don't do that!!!" :ugh: So I did it all privately... Just wanted to share the contact details for the cllinic I used... It is called MoorgateMD, and they were excellent. The Doctor did the general medical, and took blood samples for the Haemoglobin count, and the HIV test. I then went straight to London Bridge Hospital to have the x-ray, and to Harley Street Hearing Clinic for the audiogram. All in all I paid Ł400 (Ł120 of which were for the audiogram) I got the x-ray and audiogram graph straight away, and the results for the blood samples the following morning. Got my final approval, and I am flying out on friday the 13th! Unlycky for some, but not for others... hehehe! (here's the link to Moorgat MD: http://www.moorgatemd.co.uk/ ) |
U.s. Open Days
Hi, how are you, I saw that emirates just put open days dates for the US for the first time, they have put dates in Los Angeles, Houston and San Francisco, but, does anyone know if they will come to New York soon?, I'll be looking forward for your answers.
THANK YOU |
to answer your question, not sure. I live in new york and I finally gave it a shot and went to an open day in Dublin, Ireland and was lucky and now im going to training on the 27th of this month, kinda suprised they didnt add new york but guessing they picked iah,lax and sfo because of new cities and i guess they want more americans for those routes? just guessing. so if you can get to one of those cities i would definately go.
|
i'm going to send my medicals tomorow and i'm wondaring how long is it takes to get the final answer? and also- what could be not as they want it in the madicals to receive a "regretz"?
i have all my vaccination done, my medicals are ok, dental health too, tests negative and normal.. they called me in 24th to congratulate me, in 27th i got the mail and tomorow (9th) will be exactly 2 weeks, so i hope i will be in time for sending the documents, right? sorry if this post sounds silly but i hope you guys to understand me :O i had a hard time the last weeks because tomorow is my defence of a diploma work too in the university and both dead lines made me crazy. and one more: about the audiogram. the doctor filled it in the papers (the medical form) till I was in the cabin and been tested, should I have a graph too? |
i know for sure you need an audio gram graph. As for the two week thing if your a day late its no big deal just let me know, and it took them about 11 days to give me my final approval. Just call them after you have sent it to make sure they have received it. it is possible it gets lost sometimes and if there is anything missing in your report the will email you and btw you get your final approval by email as well.

final briefing - visa
Hello everybody...
Got my final briefing, visa and ticket yesterday, but somehow the visa doesn't open... anyone have any idea how to view and print it?? Thanks! |
Some info would ease my mind!!
Hi everyone!
This is my first post, and i've been shortlisted for the Emirates interviews. Have done the initial one, reach test and group interview.. now have a day long one next week. Can i ask how important is it to get the "How to become Emirates Cabin Crew" book?? Or is it just a bit of common sense, be presentable, research etc. I am a little scared because i get nervous speaking in front of a crowd..i can deliver, but not totally confident.. do you need to be super confident? Any tips anyone? good websites for info i should review? I am so excited!! Thanks to anyone who can help me! Ash:) |
Hi!
You can find a lot of information on the internet. Just search: cabin crew/flight attendant. Good luck! |
Emirates Interview Process
INTERVIEW PROCESS

English TEST
1. Reading Comprehension
2. Essay For example: READING COMPREHENSION Read the text below and decide whether the statements that follow (63-69) are, according to the text, TRUE, FALSE or NOT STATED (i.e. the text gives no information about the statement). Mark your answer on the Answer Sheet in the following way: A = TRUE B = FALSE C = NOT STATED Cutty Sark, the world famous sailing ship that in the heyday of the wool trade regularly recorded the fastest time for the voyage from Australia to Britain, is rotting away and may have to be sold abroad. The London landmark, which exchanged the seven seas for a concrete dry dock in Greenwich on the banks of the River Thames more than 50 years ago, has been given just four years before the rot and rust becomes so bad that the ship disintegrates. "We need to raise a minimum of eight million pounds ($12.6 million) for the preservation work or we will have to put her up for sale," says the Cutty Sark Trust chief executive, Richard Doughty. According to him, the ship is virtually unique. She is part of a World Heritage site and classed as a Grade I listed building. It would be a shame to lose her, but if the money cannot be raised, she may have to be sold. The ship was launched in 1869 on Scotland's River Clyde to make the run to China for the tea trade but switched to fetching wool from Australia to feed England's mills. She was sold in 1895 to a Portuguese company when the wool trade was much less profitable, and spent the next three decades running cargoes between Oporto, Rio de Janeiro, New Orleans and Lisbon. Acquired by an English sailing fanatic in the 1920s, she was bequeathed to the nation in 1938 and finally put out to grass in Greenwich in 1951. The trust, formed to preserve the elegant sailing ship, will be putting in a bid for funds to the Heritage Lottery Fund, which uses money from the National Lottery to support local, regional and national projects to preserve Britain's historical buildings and landmarks. 63. Cutty Sark used to be the quickest cargo ship. 64. Cutty Sark made its last journey half a century ago. 65. A foreign investor is willing to pay 8 million pounds for the ship. 66. Cutty Sark stopped transporting wool in the 19th century because a Portuguese company bought her. 67. The previous owner of the ship sold her to the state. 68. The Cutty Sark Trust is hoping to win the lottery to restore the ship. 69. Cutty Sark is put on display on the river Thames. (It's just a sample, not original EK-Test of course!) ............................................................ ................................ READING COMPREHENSION On reading the following passage carefully, decide, according to the text, whether statement (A) or (http://www.utaskisero.extra.hu/images/smiley/cool.gif is true, or both of them are equally true (C) or neither of them is true (D). According to the federal government, harvesting tuna fish in the Pacific Ocean using a large net does not significantly affect nearby dolphin populations, but animal and environmental groups refuse to accept the findings. A study by the National Marine Fisheries Service found that using mile-long nets to capture tuna in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean will not threaten the dolphin species. The findings mean tuna from countries such as Mexico can be exported to the United States and labeled as r16;Dolphin Safer17; if no dolphins were injured or killed when the fish were removed. In the past, countries that used dolphins to target tuna could not post the r16;Dolphin Safer17; label on products shipped to the United States. Dolphins are often a good indicator of tuna habitats and are used by fishermen to determine where to place their nets. Earlier methods of using fishing nets killed hundreds of thousands of dolphins, but deaths have dropped to 2,000 per year according to the government r11; still too many for environmental groups. The new rule requires that tuna associated with the death of one or more dolphins must be separated from that considered r16;dolphin safer17;. "The whole point of the 'Dolphin Safe' label is to give consumers a choice of tuna that wasn't caught by netting dolphins," said William Snape, Vice President with the Defenders of Wildlife. 70. (A) The study shows that dolphins are not in danger. (http://www.utaskisero.extra.hu/images/smiley/cool.gif Environmental groups believe that tuna fishing threatens dolphins. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 71. (A) Tuna fish can only be caught by killing other fishes. (http://www.utaskisero.extra.hu/images/smiley/cool.gif r16;Dolphin Safer17; means that no dolphins are captured by fishing nets. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 72. (A) Tuna cannot be sold in the USA without the r16;Dolphin Safer17; label. (http://www.utaskisero.extra.hu/images/smiley/cool.gif Mexico can sell tuna in the USA labeled as r16;Dolphin Safer17;. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 73. (A) Dolphins and tuna fish often live side by side. (http://www.utaskisero.extra.hu/images/smiley/cool.gif Fishermen look out for dolphins to locate tuna. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 74. (A) Tuna fishing methods have become safer. (http://www.utaskisero.extra.hu/images/smiley/cool.gif The death rate of dolphins has hardly changed.

Advice from Audrey
Number 1 rule
Be Punctual (dah!) Number 2 rule Relax! General Appearance and hygiene Don't worry, no one expects you to look like a supermodel. However, You need to look well groomed. Take out any body-piercing except ear rings (one per side) No visible tattoos (this is a BIG no-no) Makeup should be kept simple; DO NOT over do makeup. Hair should be neat. Long hair tied back or bunned up. Hair away from the eyes. (LÁSD. A FOTÓMON - ezért cseréltem le a régit erre, ez szerepelt a cv-men. A beadandó fényképen tartsd magad egyenesen, nézz a kamerába, viselhetsz blézert és blúzt, vállak láthatók.) In fact as a general rule the face should be kept clear of hair. No drastic hair colouring. Get a good manicure or have your fingernails neatly trimmed (no bitten nails) I recommend nude colours for fingernails or just transparent enamel. No body odour and bad breath. Clothing and Accessories Conservative and smart is best. A skirt and blouse, or pants suit for women. (Megjegyzés: CSAK ÉS KIZÁRÓLAG SZOKNYÁS-térdig érő- KOSZTÜM AZ EK OPEN DAY-RE. A FOTÓN IS!) The skirt shouldn't be too short when you sit down If wearing a skirt always wear stockings Stockings as close to your skin colour as possible. For Men : Suit or Trousers , tie and Jacket Nothing too revealing look smart yet comfortable Wear proper shoes and no slip ons Always bring a nice folder to contain your documents. The Interview Females should sit with legs crossed Don't shake a leg! - Don't fidget Greet the interviewers by name - They will probably have name tags on, or ask. "Good Morning Mr Tan, Miss Lee it's a pleasure to meet you My name is Mandy Smith." Wait to be seated The Questions When the interview starts, relax ,DO NOT get flustered. Always allow the interviewers to finish asking the questions. Play the answer in your head before you say it out loud. Politely ask the interviewers to repeat the question if you misheard or do not understand. Speak clearly and slowly. DO NOT rush. DO NOT use "er", "um" ,"lah" : etc to pad your sentences. Do answer the questions in full sentences and support them with examples. This often allows the interviewers to respond, thus creating a conversational atmosphere that isn't one-sided. It is vital to have some answers prepared for the usual questions such as: Why do you want to be a flight attendant? Do you consider this as a career? What is your current occupation? What is your hobby? Know the latest airline news Be careful of scenario questions such as: What if a passenger accused you of forgetting his drink - what would you do? THE TRICK 1. Be positive 2. NEVER be defensive 3. NEVER say the passenger is wrong Be prepared to read a passage of text (to see how your diction and confidence are) BE CAREFULL WITH JOKES - THEY CAN REAL KILL YOUR CHANCES IF YOU GET THEM WRONG If they ask you about your strengths or talents, tell them Be careful not to sound boastful! If they ask you to name a fault or weakness, say something mild. For example say "My weakness is Chocolate" as there isn't much to fault you there. In fact, some interviewers may join you on that! DO NOT say negative things like: "I'm IMPATIENT" or "I have a SHORT TEMPER" or "not a morning person" - (or I don't like to travel :-D) Above all, try to be composed and pleasant. After the Interview Thank each one of the interviewers Tell them you're grateful for the opportunity for them to get to know you. Say you hope to hear from them. Last but not the least and certainly the most important of allr30; DO NOT forget your smiles throughout! |

Thank U Mari!!
Thank You So Much!! That Was Alot Of Very Helpful Information!! Can't Wait For My Open Day Next Saturday At Christchurch!!
Does Anybody Know If It's Possible For Candidates To Go Through Open Day And The 1 On 1 Interview All In One Day? Because I'll Be Flying Down Cch From Akl And Wonder If I Really Need To Book The Hotel Room 'if' I Get Selected For Interview..:} Thank You In Advance!! Any Input Is Much Appreciated!! |
most likely you will not have a one on one in the same day. its too much. just the open day can last 10 hours if you make it all the way through. They will schedule a 1 on 1 usually the next day or 2 afterwards. At least thats how it was for me in Dublin.
|
Thank you Mari..arent you lovely!
Thank you for putting all that effort in to help me ease my mind..
I am studying this weekend for my interview Wednesday. I guess once i have studied enough all i can do is relax and be myself!! Easier said than done in an interview but i will rehearse!! Thanks again.. i just hope i can say "i'm moving to Dubai!" sooner than never.. :) |
Open Day 21st June!! MELBOURNE
Hi all, wow just spent about 4 hours reading posts about Emirates to be COMPLETELY prepared! Just one thing I'm not sure about, many people seem to say you must take at least two reference letters on workplace letterhead- with reasons for leaving, pass port, pictures by a professional photographer, birth certificate, diploma and certificates etc- i know you definitely need your resume and pictures but all the other stuff ? and do the pictures have to be professional?
also I am leaving to go on a trip to thailand on the 29th june for 10 days, will that matter? i can organise someone to answer my phone/email etc? also how long will the selection week go for/ I'm travelling up from Hobart and have to organise to get work off, the Emirates invitation letter just says they might need me all week? thanks for help!!! :) |
