Hi,
About 150 people turned up to the Syd open day and they ended cutting down to about 20. The open day wasn't too bad as it was all group tasks, the one on one interview was the scariest. They asked so many questions about team work etc etc.

They say 4-6 weeks but depending on their crewing needs it can be quicker (I'm pretty sure Craic got called back in about 2, maybe 3 weeks?) I recall at the time she (Danni/Amelita/whoever) said they needed a lot of new crew...
Congrats Letsfly

Hello everyone
Hey everyone
Just thought i would let you all know that I'm from Melbourne and made it to the last interview process with emirates.
I recieved a call on Sunday stating that I had made it to the medical stage .
This whole process had become a dream come true. If the medical all goes well I will be leaving on the 22nd of June also.
To anyone out there who wants advice let me know and i'll be there to help. The most important thing is to be yourself, smile and think positive, thats all I did.
I'll keep you all posted.
Good Luck

When you are asked to do the medical, you will get a whole lot of forms that need to be taken to your doctor & filled out. Im in the process of mine, but you need to go through a whole lot of things..blood tests (HIV/AIDS & haemoglobin), chest xray, vaccinations, if you wear contact lenses you have to do a sight test, if youre female you need to to a cervical test, audiogram (hearing test) and also dental. Be aware that none of it is covered/reimbursed by Emirates (and in Australia, not all of the tests can be covered by Medicare...)
It is a preliminary medical to so that Emirates group can a) have the visa approved for you to enter the country & work and b) meet the minimum requirements to carry out the duties required without any medical problems and c) that you are practically in good health to not jepordise the health & dental policies that is given to you once you are accepted.
You are also re-tested for many of the same things once you enter Dubai as well.

You should try Qatar Airways (Doha) & Gulf Air....also Etihad Airways also in UAE.
Wish you all the best!

June assessment days
Hi fox123, you've been posting some replies with the same question and here is an answer just to help you a little bit. I see that your location is China and I am quite sure that an agency is involved in the cabin crew recruitment process in China. I think you should first try contacting the agency about the invitations. I also know that for assessment days in other cities like London, people received invitations around 2-3 weeks before the assessment day. Best of luck to you

Also, when and where is the Melbourne open day going to be held? I heard it's this saturday.... but i'm not sure when. I only applied online with Emirates yesterday.
This forum is awesome, so much information.

They are looking for a follower, good team player, friendly, interactive!! Good luck, if you havent heard in a month it means you more or less have it, those who hear straight away dont!! Dubai have to approve you, it took them 6 months for me!! Then others have been luckier, call after a couple of weeks to see how your interview went, shows your keen!!
GOOD LUCK!!

It's not usually by both.... it's either one or the other.
Do they take only 1 sample of blood or 2? Because one sample can only be sent to a lab to test HIV and the other disease. It can't be sent to test for drugs as well. Companies usually test for drugs through urine (that's standard) but it's not unheard of to test through blood. But if they're already testing for a disease, they'd need 2 samples.
