Final Interview
 

hello everyone...
I have been a follower of this site on and off...
Want to thank everyone for your contributions and for sharing your experiences...:)
It feels great to know there are other people out there who share same thoughts and dreams. :)

I went for an Open Day almost a year and a half ago...made it with the Final Interview, unfortunately however got an unsuccessful e-mail…...i was quite disappointed and heart broken, because this has been my dream for years...however i did not excel during my Final Interview…
Finally I can attend the next open day at the end of February.. pretty soon! This time I am more prepared, I know more or less what to expect and I have obviously matured in my thoughts and perspectives...Well fingers crossed! :)

Congratulations to those who just got the golden call! and fingers crossed to those waiting for it! Those who did not make it...it's a rough time and waiting for 6months or a year to pass seems like forever! … But think positive..if it's meant to be it will be!
I am still hoping too!

Just a little question to those who just had a Final Interview ...were you asked about strengths and weaknesses? I would love to hear some ideas regarding weaknesses, it's a tricky question and although i made some research and thought about it...it would be nice to hear your views too. Also is the psychometric test still being done? I would really appreciate any replies..
Many thanks! :) xxx

Any February Experiences
 

Hi Everyone,
I just joined this forum and i want to thank you guys for all the info. Theres so much to absorb and i have learnt A LOT:O. I have observed that the FI questions are basically the same all over for a particuler month and i want to know if someone has been to an AD this month and if so could you kindly share the experience with us.
Mine is on the 27th. Goodluck to everyone waiting for their GCs and attending ADs/ ODs

Oh thanks everyone, this year was a very good birthday with the fabulous Emirates news! Biancs88- heard anything yet?x

Happy Birthday Ellie!!

Haha looks like Lou75 and I are the only ones joining on April 4th so far!! Perhaps some of our training group are yet to receive their GCs?

Lou75 - Weird you can't find me! Maybe is has something to do with my settings, i'll wait for your PM then try and add you :)

Hopefully i get my GC soon and i'll have the same DOJ as you two. k_tii2 was at the OD i went to and she got her call this week so fingers crossed mine is following!
Is there any guys out there that had their FI in Dec/Jan that have their GC yet? wondering if it is still taking a little longer for guys to get through! :confused:
Still trying to be as patient as i can haha.

Awaiting Gc
 

Hey Everyone,
I am on week 9 and my status still reads under review, have tried calling them severally but no response. Anyone who would like to give me the different number that I should try on? Its not easy to wait this long and nothing is forthcoming..... Congratulations to you all who received their GC. See you in DXB soon.

Didn't make it : (
 

Went to assessment day in Auckland, NZ and out of about 170 pp I made it to the last 12 and then after I submitted my docs, about 2 weeks later I checked my status and it said Unsucessful! :{ So guttered! they say reapply in a year, about how do you know what to improve on if you want to reapply a second time. It was such an intense process and I just wonder why I didn't get it. 3 girls out of the 12 have been accepted, myself and 1 other girl denied and the others are still waiting! So heartbreaking :confused:

I am so surprised that only 12 made it to the FI! That is a lot less then what I have previously experienced. I made it to the FI in 2009 and there were 29 of us, and year after that there were around 25 (and these were interviews in Brisbane). I have been hearing a lot now that there weren't more than 15 on average that made it to the FI. Maybe Emirates is being extra strict now with their intake!

Who else has a DOJ of 28 march?
Those who have theirs a few weeks around that date especially the Aussies, it would be cool to keep in touch on face book or whatever. Feel free to private message me on here!

OD- Open Day (walkin to leave your CV and pictures, open to everyone)
AD- Assesment Day ( Invitation from Emirates to attend a preliminary selection process, often after you put in an application online)
FI- Final Interview ( Once you make it past the Assesment Day)
GC- Golden Call ( Positive call from Emirates that you've been hired)
Cheers

Just read through all the previous posts; theres a wealth of information to glean off here
a lot of people have been kind enough to share their experience with us.
Cheers
