Queries to anyone who might know the answer.
 

Hi,

I am currently studying in my last year of university but my term doesn't finish until about next April. I heard a rumor that Emirates might be recruiting this year in my country (Thailand), if in the case they do recruit here, am I eligible for applying? Because I haven't actually graduated yet.
Do you have to actually finish your academic year before applying or can you apply first and postpone (that's to say if i even get far in the process haha).

Thank you in advance to anyone who can enlighten me with the answer :)

Hi all,

Has anyone been to an assessment recently? What were the group exercises? Would love to hear from anyone who has been recently.

Thanks,
:)Miss F

Photos Uploading Problem?
 

1) Hi everyone I am applying online to attend the open day, but I am not able to complete and submit the application because I am not able to UPLOAD MY PHOTOS. The system can not recognize any when being uploaded. Therefore I am not able to submit the application because of this missing part. Any Idea please?? :ugh:

2) Can I attend the open day without applying online or getting any invitation ??

(BTW wondering if there might be any LEBANESE people here, who are going to attend the open day this October 16th. it would be cool to meet here before).:)

Thanks :)

1) It seems the website is not recognizing the format of your pictures. Try opening them using Paint.net Paint.NET - Download then save them again as JPEG format.

2)You can show up at the open day without applying online however, if you go through to the Final Interview (usually the following day or the day after), you have to be registered beforehand. So better do it before attending.

Good Luck

Hi Leb Wings and thanks for your reply.

I believe it is not the case about the pictures, because I tried uploading different photos, I even tried the application you recommended and nothing seemed to work.

It is like I browse the photo and press on "upload", the page shows "please wait", loads normally, but after that nothing happens. Photos can not be detected. It is like I did not upload any. with no Errors....Its awkward.

If it will remain the same, I will attend the Open Day as you suggested. Any Idea what should I bring with me? other than CV and photos? how many photos? and what should I expect in such a day.

Thank you. Nice to meet you.:)

It seems a browser problem. Did you try using Internet Explorer?

As for the open day, get with you a CV, full body picture, passport-sized picture and a stack of casual photos.

Yes man I tried internet explorer before, I even tried my phone. Same issue. Thanks

Accepting the job
 

Hey everyone!

What happens if someone gets the job and doesnt accept it? Can you reapply after all in case you want to join later?

someone who does not want the job
 

I am sure you can decline the offer.

As for trying to apply later it probably will not look good. Why would a company offer someone a job for the second time after their file says they already received an offer but did now want it? I doubt they would even waste their time,again.

You so right about it! :) It just hard as I got one offer from a company in Dubai also and cant decide which job to choose from....:ugh:

which job offer
 

Follow your heart because in the end we only regret the chances we didn't take.

Depends on the overall package each company is offering... Dubai is expensive, esp if you have to pay accomm, utilities, medical insurance, travel home etc. Compare what is included and what kind of hours/schedule you'd be expected to work.

Seville, Open Day - Re Apply in 6 months
 

Hi people,

I am Dani, from Spain. I just joined this forum, because a friend who works for Emirates recomended it to me.

Well, I have attended an OP in Seville, Spain. The first day, was the screaning and the CV drop-off, there were like 200 people. The recruiter were nice, Elena from Spain and Sian from China. After all the videos and info, when I was called, I gave them my CV, she asked me first, where I am from, and then my age, I said 27, as I have a Degree in Tourism, she was interested in that, but I finished in september so I've been studying it 6 years, she asked me why, I said because I spent one year in England as an Erasmus student and I was working at the same time. My job experiences had were very shorts, she said too, but I reply the last two experience have been internships, just to gain experience whilst studying, and the other one in UK, because I had to come back to Spain....

Well, I thought they weren't going to call me, so I left the hotel quite sad. But at 16:45 in the afternoon I got the call. And I was extremely happy and nervous. :D:D:O

The next day, I went there. There were only 30 people now. We had the groups dynamic assesment, and the reach test. After the reach test, one of the interviewers asked me what do I do at the moment, I said, I just finished my degree and I am seeking for job opportunities, in concrete I am very excited for the cabin crew position with Emirates. She replied, what is your motivator? and I answered, well to be honest, I consider myself to be a truly international person, I am really passionate about foreign languages and the different cultures of the world. And working with Emirates I'll be able to deal with people from all around the world in a multicultural environment while having the opportunity to build a career.:):ok:

Then, the dynamic group session. They gave us cards with pictures of diferent cities, we had to say 3 tourist attractions and talk about them to the rest, I was in a group of two (Antonio and me). Antonio had a lower English level, but good enough, I think he could've done it better... we discuss about what to say, our city was Buenos Aires, neither of us knew much about the city apart from being the capital of Argentina, the tango dancing and that they eat a lot of meat and have a drink called mate, which is made out of grass and it's similar to tea, but different. :*:D

Well, Antonio started to talk first, even though we decided I was going to be first, he didn't introduced us saying our names... :=:= he just started saying all the stuff about the city.... and didn't let me anything else to say but the thing about the mate drink... he talked so much of the time and then I had to invent another issues.. But i think that was my mistake, I should have interact with him, like a team and talk about what he said and add something else, I deeply regret not haven done it better... :ugh::ugh::ugh:

we both got the "Thanks for attending..... Unfortunately you have not success......" nevertheless we encourage you to re apply within 6 months...


SO HERE I AM!! Fellow Cabin Crew Wannabes! I'm not gonna give up, not gonna give in! in 6 months I'll try again. So I wanna get as much info about the dynamic group as I can! I am willing to help anybody, but I need help too!
We must act like a team work! and we'll be success in our dreams!

Good luck
 

Hey good luck next time, we both in the same situation!

Job offer
 

givemewings, both company offers the same, the only difference is the working hours as it is 48/week for the other company and I dont know how much would be for Emirates I believe it is less :)

negyven ora
 

Its 40 hours ancsika, they clearly state it on the EK website, where you initially apply.

Hi everybody, I've been readin this forum dated back to 2007, so got all the good advice... Unbelievable there's quite a few GC wish I would have counted it when I started reading. Anyways, I have just applied online and going to the Liverpool, UK OD on the 9th November. Is anyone else planning on making an appearence? :)

Open day in Sydney this weekend, I am going to try for the third time. Fingers crossed!

You can apply, but the best option I would do is - fly somewhere non thai country as in thailand they use agencies and your chances getting the job will be lower... you can read some books from my site, plus get all the interview process http:// cabin8crew . wordpress . com /

3rd time sydney
 

Could you share how far you have gotten the last 2 attempts?

Regarding OD/AD/FI Experiences
 

Hello all,

Has anyone recently attended an open day/assessment day or even final interview in Canada and would like to share their overall thoughts on how it went?

Thank you in advance!
