I've applied for Etihad as they are having a open day in Glasgow, I'm looking for some advice
what shall I expect at the open day? Whats the next step after that?
How long if I am successful will I be able to go out?
I'm a bit confused about the medical reading some posts does it mean I will get the medical done in abu dhabi?
I really want this job its my dream but I'm worrying as I have no experience I am a retail manager at the moment?
Any tips or advice for the interview much appreciated sorry my post might ramble a tad!

EY
Wow...just noticed on Etihad Careers website.
There are 1200 VACANCIES for Cabin Crew! & 70 Vacancies for Pursers!
Also noticed they taking a big chunk out of Bahrain. With the loss of quite a few Gulf Intl Cabin Crew with the latest restructure. EY Have gone in for the kill and have 3 consecutive open days in Bahrain.
Good on em.

Medicals
Hi all,
Well, I've nearly finished my medical. I will get about four needles tomorrow, the eye test and that's it. YEAAAHHHH!!!! I am excited to get all the paperwork to them.
They seem to be wanting the males to start immediately, are there any females they have wanted straight away. It seems all the posts for immediate starts are from guys. Just curious.
Hey Nick, how are you going honey? What's happening with you now, have you got your contract, when is your departure date set for???
Hope everyone is going well with their medicals.
Take care
Tanya

Commencement date and Contract!!
Hi, all~!!
I received a call from one Etihad HR officer today, and he asked my preference for joining date. I said 'beginning of June', so he gave me '3rd. June' Also, he sent me an email - 6 pages of cabin crew contract form attached.
I haven't finished my medical exam yet, so i was quite suprised when I got the call. I've only finished my dental exam and 6 vaccinations(but still two more to go
) You know what? I'm doing my urine and blood tests tomorrow. I know I'm really late, but there was a reason. Anyway, I hope I can send all the results by the end of this week or coming Monday.
Umm.... I feel very strange now I keep asking myself 'Are you ready to go there? Are you really?' It is worse becuase of my boyfriend seating next to me with so sad face
Be strong Jas~!!!!!!!!!!
I'm gonna miss this bloody beautiful country AUSRALIA~!!
Nickvan, Ozziecrew, Tanya..let me know you guys' commencement dates!

Fs_gary,
there is a chance not to be accepted even after completition of those forms :-(, but that doesn't happen very often.
Do not inform EY about stolen passport yet, as he/she doesn't know if they've been accepted or not. But what they can do is to apply for new passport as soon as possible. If they get job with EY, than inform them immediately as they need passport number and copy for UAE residence visa.

Flying Explorer,
They told us that they'll be recruting more often than before in MNL so dont lose hope
They told us that they'll be recruting every month or at least every other month. Last Feb, they were here as well,they didnt inform that thru their site, however it was thru their rep agency here in MNL, East Gate, familiar with that? Just a piece of advice, go for both, what i mean is apply online and to the agency as well. There's nothing wrong with it =D Then regularly check their site if there's a recruitment drive in MNL. so with the agency, regularly call to check if there is. =D 
Hope this will help you. Thanks btw =D

Etihad has the 6-month thing if fail during the day when meeting the EY recruitors. They just had interview in Singapore in Mar 07, but they are having another interview in May 07. According to the Inter-excel agency doing screening on behalf of EY, EY recruitors will disqualify u on the spot if u apply less than 6 months.. Anybody can confirm this????
Btw, did EY recruitors still ask u to choose 1 item out of few & give reason why u chose that item??? What reasons do u normally give?? Any helpful tips will be useful.

the contract
ok for those who has seen the contract!! how do u feel about it??? do u think there are some things missing? I found it to be very breif, nothing about working overtime, how many days we are working for per month, if we get the 250dirahms on days we are away from base at an overnight, staff travel concessions, flying pay as an hourly rate?
if anyone has knows anymore than me, plase fill me in, im just used to big complex contracts??
cheers all

Hey there... I think theres not much to change about the contract... Accept it or leave it i guess...
However, yeah, it's pretty brief and leaves a lot of freedom to the employer... but I'm okay with that... even though things sounded much different at the assessment... especially as they told us it was a 3 years renewable contract... but check closley... it's only 2 years. And within the first 6 months you won't get sick leave (strange to me... what are they gonna do when I catch a flue... force me to fly or just fire me!?!) etc. etc.
And guys, if you have been flying before for longer than a year, don't forget to send in your work certificate... you'll get a higher pay than people who have no experience...
Hugs, vp
