Heya Elly

Heya Elly

Many thanks for bringing me back to this thread.. I am such a twit.

I am still curious about it how you guys start a new thread, anyhow no worries this is not important.^^

I have read through the employment letter and already replied with an email with my acceptance. I have yet to receive my e-ticket but reckon will do so over the weekends. They dont work on thursday and Friday.

Will keep you guys informed again. And about the 3 x 3.5 photos, it really weird ya the size. I had done all of them already.

Cheers

Hi everyone, well it's getting nearer for some of you to fly out! I bet you're excited and on the flip side I know how you're parents are feeling!I cant believe this first week has gone so quickly, this time last Friday I was getting ready to go to the airport to say goodbye. Everytime I speak to my daughter she seems happy, yesterday was a good day, she said, they did some sep and went on the simulator! Next week it will start getting harder. She's off today and tomorrow(Fri & Sat), and she even met some guests staying in the same hotel who are from the same town in England as she is!You fly 1000s of miles for that!!!! I still haven't had a pic of her in her uniform, hopefully she'll send that soon, I want hat on as well! She said you have to wear your hat to travel to and from the college and the scarf "does her head in"! I suppose it's all new at the mo and exciting and there will be times when it gets hard and she feels down, but I'm sure it will be all worth it in the end!

Well as I said before, all the best to everyone flying out soon or trying to get in,
mother hen.

Corporate Intro...

Hi Elly,
You must be getting excited - I am... I think we may be training together - did your offer letter state that you were to start on the 28th Sept?!! How cool if we are?! I fly out of Akld on the 22nd - next frid.... I'm getting my ticket, visa and final contract emailed - think it just depends which country you live in. I asked about the Online Corporate Intro and apparantly this password gets sent to us with the contract as well. Hope that helps and I'm looking forward to meeting u if we do end up training together!!

Motherhen-
you are wonderful - what a lucky daughter! You're making me really look forward to it all. Thanks so much

Hi Elly, mother hen again! my daughter couldn't get on to the online corporate intro so she emailed them and they sent her her staff no. It was just about the company and you answer multiple choice questions. It wasn't hard and all the answers are in the info you read anyway. As I've mentioned before, my daughter will still be training when you get there, you might even be in the same hotel as her, so you will have to say hello to her if you see her. Only if you want of course!

Best of luck to all, mother hen.

Wink Mother Hen/ Newnz

Hi, Mother Hen.
Thank you for the info! I will contact emirates now, to see if they can send me a new password. I will be glad to meet your daughter. What's her name?

Newzn, yes, may be we will be in the same group. Yes, in my contract was stated that I will start 28-09, which is strange, since I'm flying on 29th. However.
Good luck dear!!!

Ok, dear friends!! See you soon.
Best regards: Elly

Hi all, Elly, on my daughters offer letter it said her joining date was 8th Sep (she flew out that day) but acctually started the training 2 days later on Sun 10th. I think Sun is their start od the week. Oh, and her name is Kaycie

And to anyone who it might be of interest tohotos- they asked my daughter to get hers done again but she was going on holiday so we took them with a digital camera, which were acceptable. The head and shoulders one we just printed from the computer in the passport size and postage stamp size and just changed the background from cream to light blue!
Hope this is of help to anyone, good luck all,
mother hen.

Hey guys!! This forum is really nice and I appreciate all of you who are trying to help others.
I got the offer letter today and had a question regarding the 4 photographs (size 3 X 3.5) needed with blue background. does it have to be in formal wear?
I get so intimidated by the attachments they send with the emails. But nevertheless they are very well organized and preofessional in their entire recruitment process.

Mother Hen: I like reading about your daughters experiences. Keep sharing them

photos

popins, regarding photos....as I said previously, the 3x3.5 ones my daughter used head and shoulders(the same as passport just smaller) we printed hers from the digital camera onto photo paper via the computer and just changed the cream background to light blue. I assume these were all fine as she hasn't said otherwise! Not sure if this helps,
good luck, mother hen.

You will get your ticket by Fedex?? Is this confirm by Emirates? I only know that they will send an e-ticket via email. I am scheduled on the 22nd flight and i think I should have received the eticket soon these two days. Please advise.

BTW did you complete the Online Corporate Induction? What is about? I havent, cause it keeps saying: incorect password. Very strange... Somebody can give an advise???????I did not do the Induction. They didnt sent any staff number. I really wonder what we will get next. I keep you in touch soon once i receive anything from them. Now i am doing some packing.

My training starts on the 28 September, so i reckon i will get to see you. ^^

Thumbs up Sameangeline

Hi, dear.

Actually they dont send you a password, it is actually your application and staaff number. Check your email- on the head line , where is written the day of joining, is mentioned your number. With this number you can access the web site.

About the ticket- mine is by FedEx, as Joanne from Ek called me and told me so. So, I'm waiting... But some people get E-ticket by email, which is the same, and easier.

Dont worry, eveything will go well! I'm sure!!!

Regards; Elly

Talking Semangeline...

That's great news Semangeline - we MUST be training together! Actually, I wonder if my flight may come via Singapore and pick you up too? No, I haven't received my e-ticket yet. I've emailed them and this as well as the 'final contract', staff number, and visa will all be sent to me 3 or 4 days before I fly. Hope this helps. You can always email your HR co-ordinator (named in the contract you would have received about a week ago.) Mine gets back to me straight away whenever I have questions - very professional and helpful! Yay yay yay! Looking forward to meeting you!

!! Thank you NEwnz^^. I also fly out on the 22nd September from Singapore. Have you already received your e-ticket? I only received my contract, no password nothing. i reckon same as Elly. Nothing else. I think eticket and visa will come after the contract. Pls advise. My training starts on the 28 September, so i reckon i will get to see you. ^^[/quote]

flyoneday:
hi there. I'm not yet interviewed by them. I've just send in my application a few days back. Hope to receive a call soon (fingers crossed & praying hard!!).
Well, I'm kind of used to the heat here... the hottest months are july, august n september. the temp goes as high as 47- 48 degree celsius. starting from oct... it comes down slightly. nov, dec n jan are the so called winter months in U.A.E. it doesn't get dat cold though atleast for the past two years now, its not been dat cold. and if u pray real hard u wud get an occasional spell of rain! ( and ppl do arrange for a mass prayer so dat it rains- seriously) .
Popins, Semangeline, Newnz, Elly : u guys r lucky dat u wud be comin here nw...u will escape the heat for a few months atleast....and by the time its summer u wud hav started flyin and it wudnt matter much.

Mother Hen: U r the BEST!!!! thanks a lot for sharing. Oh btw, does ur daughter get some amt of pocket money frm emirates for her expenses while she's under training? I'm sure sh wud be very excited abt her uniform... am wondering when will dat day cum whn i wud also be wearing it.

bye all
GOD BLESS
