Leito!
 

Nice to know there's a Gaucho in here! Leito, you were right! today at 1900 Favio called me to let me know that I've gone through the Stage 2 successfully, so I'm pretty excited right now. I'll be going to the Assesment Day on Feb. 22nd. So, wish me luck!

Are there more argentineans here?

Hi guys,

I have been searching for a forum like this for sooooo long, I'm so glad to finally have found one! I have had so many questions and noone to answer them, but you guys have covered everything on here!

I went to the Sydney interviews on 6 Dec and got my call on Christmas Day-woohoo what a pressie! I have sent all my medicals back (which was such an ordeal), but its been about a week and a half and I still havent heard anything. My DOJ is 6 March, but I need to give a months notice at my work as well as do all of the annoying things like moving furniture, so I feel like its getting urgent!

I need to resign from my job soon, but don't want to annoy them with another email (I sent one after a week saying I need to give my work notice soon). I hate this waiting game they play! I just want to start packing already!

Good luck to everyone!

Emirates UK
 

Is there anyone on here who has been invited to go to the Assessment day in the UK - Birmingham?

My DOJ has changed
 

Hey guys,

I received an email yesterday from Emirates saying that my DOJ has changed from the 13th of Feb 2009 to 20th of Feb 2009 , another whole week of waiting ( its becomming my new job to wait and I'm out of patience in this period )
Has anyone of you received this email ?

Great forum by the way - first post here :)

oh and I got my final approval yesterday along with the DOJ change ...

Cheers
Xx

Hi there!

My DOJ is oso 13 Feb :ok:

If they haven't reply, i suggest you call regarding your DOJ. As for final approvals, I emailed them saying that "i'm unemployed", that's why I'm unable to send them the "Resignation Acceptance Letter".
Although they did not reply to my email, at least i told them. And if I do not get my e-ticket and visa 4 days before my flight, I'll call them again.

Why change your DOJ? We can be batch mates! :}

Emirates
 

Hiya,

Is anyone attending the Preliminary Interview in Liverpool in Feb?

:)

Hi norbu_boi
 

Hi, my DOJ is the 20th now also :) It was changed from the 13th to the 20th. I recieved an email yesterday. It also had my final approval so we are on our way to Dubai very soon hehe cant wait.

Good luck to the rest of you, will keep my fingers crossed.:ok:

Im also on the 13th February!!
 

Dont change.....I feel this date is going to be incredibly lucky not unlucky.

Yes a lot of people I keep in touch with from the forum have had their DOJ changed. I think its just difficult to get everyone at the right time.

I think the only way to avoid it is just to get your medicals and everything as soon as. I think mine maybe put back because I forgot to send 1 of my reports.....Dont worry as long as we get final approval the job is ours!!

Yay!!!

Do anybody had a interview in Hawaii
 

If someone joined last interview on Nov
can u tell me how was that??

mikesofly3000
 

My DOJ was the 13th Feb and mines got changed to the 20th Feb which i dont mind. Hope to see you all out there (waiting for emirates, wish_2_fly, mikesofly3000, lia kohl) let me know how you get on with trying to change :ok:
goodluck :p

Medicals Ready, but...
 

Can't scan the X-ray! Got it in film, so I just could find a place that can scan it for me in Kyoto, so I sent them my X-ray today and will get an email monday with the picture.

Why I can't do anything in Tokyo which was supposed to be capital (= main city, = where everything should be)? :} Interviews where in Osaka as well. And when I lived in around Kyoto, I never thought of doing such a thing. Duh

Anyhow, you guys think that my DOJ can be changed from 13th to 20th just because I am sending all my medicals Monday 26th?

Hi
 

I know it was a while back, but please could you tell me if you went to the open day or assessment day in London? Do you know if they have the same process for both days? I do not know if I should go to the open day in Birmingham (end Jan) or the assessment day in London (beg. Feb) or both ??!!

Many thanks in advance :)

Hi
 

Did you take your CV and passport pics?

medicals-xray
 

Lia Kohl, I don't think you need to scan in your Xray films and send it to them-it's just the report they are after. The radiologist should have given you a report with the films and thats what you email to them. You take the films across with you and hand them over in person when you get to Dubai...

Finally almost done with Meds?!!!!
 

Alright so don't let this scare anyone but i just finished all of my medicals except for getting the vaccinations and I spend $8000 on my dentals. The reason is because i needed alot done to be able to pass the meds for my teeth. My teeth were not as healthy as I thought but after some time and work and lots of $ they are now pretty perfect. I will be sending my meds to dubai on monday.

ANYONE HAVE A DOJ OF MARCH 6TH?
That is mine and I can't seem to find anyone else that is Joining at the same time.
I am not worried about it but i would love to know if anyone else is gonna go the same time as me. Let me know and I will send you my email address so we can stay in contact before the big move!

MIKE
I would call about changing your DOJ since they told me to contact them ASAP if I needed to change mine. I'm not sure they will let you change to a week later because of friends but I could be wrong. When I got the golden call they told me the earliest I could go was March 6th so I think all the slots till then are definitely booked up unless someone else wants to switch to your DOJ. Not sure but you could always try I guess.

SHOTS
How much was it for the vaccination shots for everyone that has gotten them? I would love to know so I can see how much money I will have to spend for them. Thanks

XRAYS
 

One more thing
You don't need to scan your xrays you just need to bring them with you when you arrive in Dubai and give them to Emirates in person.
I can't imagine that xrays would actually show up in any format if you tried scanning them anyway

DOJ 6 March
 

Hi Dubai Bound, my DOJ is March 6 too! I'm a bit worried though, because I need to give a months notice at my work and I'm still waiting to hear about my medicals....so if they don't give me enough notice I may have to change my DOJ which would be really annoying because I just want to get over there!

That dental amount is crazy! I prob spent a bit over $1000 AUD all up (on all the medicals)...the vaccinations were pretty cheap though, but we get a decent amount back from the government for them. I had to have most of them done (except maybe 2 or 3) and it cost me about $300, but then I got money back so it was probably more like $200 after the rebates.

Good luck with it, hope you don't have to spend too much more!

OMG, now I sent it and paid anyhow.... :ugh:

And yes, at least in Japan there are special scanners to scan x-ray:

Dubai Bound
Regarding the shots, I would spend about 130,000 JPY to take them all (except Yellow Feverm, which I got for FREE in Brazil), but I ended uip taking olny MMR and Chicken Pox, the rest I will do in Dubai (way to expensive to do here)

13th 13th 13th!
 

As long as I can, I will mantain it.
I will get my medicals result with my brother today or tomorrow and send to dubai ASAP
