The Waiting Game

Hey Melboy,

Congratulations on making it through to the final interview.

It's that dreaded two week wait for you, I feel for you.

In answer to your question, once you receive the call you must then proceed with the medical, which will take a few days at best for you to get everything done.

Once you have passed your medical and received your contract, if you are not currently working, you will be able to start as soon as possible.

I had to give notice at work so had to wait one month, but another guy from the last Melbourne interviews left at the start of the month, so it all went very quickly for him but he wasn't working at the time.

I hope this helps and best of luck to you.

Etihad Recruitment Process

Hi all... I'm New to all of this... including the aviation industry... I was just wondering if anyone knew how long does it normally take the Etihad recruitment team to finalize the cabin crew contracts? I'm living in Australia and I'm currently going through the recruitment process for cabin crew.. I have faxed my Medical papers to them 3 weeks ago but I have still not heard anything. I have sent them 1 reminder email, but don't want to send anymore as I don't want to seem too persistent about it, although I am stressing a little as right now my life is on hold until further notice... can anyone give me a rough indication of how long it can take after faxing your medical papers.

HELP!!

Many Thanks

Thanks TanyaD

Thanks very much for your info!
Just with regards to the medical tests, will i be given a list of what i need to have checked??
I read somewhere here, that we were given a med-check list on the day of the interview but im sure there wasnt any med papers there!
The re-assurance would be much appreciated!
Many thanks,
Melboy

Btw, Congrats on getting through!! You must be over-the-moon!!

Medicals

Hey Melboy,

If you didn't get your medical papers on the day don't worry because they are attached to the email they send you when they confirm you are through to the next stage.

The medical is pretty extensive though and you will need a chest x-ray, dental x-ray, all outstanding dental work to be completed, all vaccination needles, blood tests etc. etc. etc. and the list goes on.

Nothing to stress about though, just plenty to get organised.

And yes, i'm sooo excited and can't wait to fly out.

Talk soon
TanyaD

Waiting

Hey CC23,

Whereabouts in Australia are you??? Maybe you should give them a call to confirm they even got your papers and if so just confirm everything is okay and do they require any further information from you.

The recruitment team are wonderful and always friendly and helpful, they are very busy but a quick phone call won't hurt.

Give them a call and let us know how you go.

Please ask yourselves just how smart it is to publish the names of apartments where crew live, and places where they go on a public forum: Even if you don't care, maybe some of those already there might object, and they'd be the ones to know?

Medicals

Hey im waiting for the call too... Ive been comforting a friend who was on the recruitment day with me and she also made it to the final round. However, she got the email yesturday telling her she was unsuccessful, it was sad to see her cry and make her fill out all those paper work etc and then get knock back.

OH guys was wondering, with regards to the dental x ray wat r they lookin for? like i have wisdom teeth growing but i dont need to take it out yet do they make u take it out? if u send it in will they tell u to take it out to be successful or will they know u back?

hum.. man this medical thing is more complicated than qantas thats for sure

well congrads to those who are waiting and to those who are flyin in the skies

in regards to your teeth issue, i have exactly the same problem, i have one wisdom tooth poking out the back, but as long as it isn't hurting and the dentist says its fine. my dentist put fine and healthy for the remarks, and i have been told by EY that everything is sweet!! so no need to worry about teeth thing, i also have half a fake front tooth, but u can't notice that either.

cabin supervisor

Thats actualy good news for ey crew. You can't expect good motivation without some seniors monitoring you and at the end give your apreisals.its gonna be blessing in disguise for you guys. and hey all major airlines have a cabin supervisor in each cabin beside purser.......
Talking about increased salary that will be your way too....

Moving to AUH

Hey Tina 24,

I am waiting on flight details but will hopefully start training 3rd June.

What's happening with you?

Etihad CC
Not sure what the security clearance consists of, was told it takes about a week to come through though.

Take care

Just done with Medical Exams and just passed those to Sir Ryan. Its another waiting session but not in a hurry as i want to spend more time with my family and friends. Did you already receive your flight details? How long it took until they notify you about that? Thank you dear!!!

Flying Out

Tina 24

I haven't received my flight details and believe that you don't receive the flight confirmation and details until a couple of days before you fly out.

I contacted Ryan to confirm he received my medicals and it took about a week to discuss training dates etc.

Hope this helps.

Tina24

hey,
Just like you, i'm also done with my medicals and have passed the results to sir ryan torres, did he ask for your preferred joining date already. I emailed him a while ago and told him my desired date. although he told me last monday that the results of our medical assessment would come out early next week pa. Waaaaaahhhh. Another week of waiting. Feels so exciting. Hahaha. See you in AUH.

hey tina24, wannafley,

glad to meet all of you guys here...

Same thing with me I already pass my medical forms etc..and I'm also waiting for the confirmation..i really hope ryan will give us a call asap,,

i had a friend before who submitted all the medical requirements but un fortunately she did not make the final cut,she havent given any flight details and the HR that time told her to wait. 7 months had passed she didn't receive any call from etihad..,she told me it's because of the change of management because her medicals was all clearthey also told her she had been shortlisted to think that she already spent a lot of money for the vaccines etc.but that was last year.I think they're now more organized..
i was wondering if etihad will do such things like this???i jus hope it won't happen to us...
