Thumbs up Argh

Ok this is really.. umm scary now approaching the if you get in or unfortunatly NOT...
Im recieveing emails from people I was with who didnt make it 2 weeks after final interview aww thats terrible im still waiting for my responce...
Would be a scary email to open ha...
So ultimatly they could eliminate you further after final interview even 2 weeks into waiting well i guess its better to be aware that maybe you will be cut off.

It's all good if you want it bad enough keep applying head up!! Always can try again and again!!!!

xoox

Exclamation scary

hi you guys...i m on the same boat as you all...about 2 weeks waiting, and i thought the risk is "gone"..but according to you qalbi, you uys might still get a regret letter after 2 weeks...keep heads up guys...
in my case, it is kinda different..yesterday was day 10 of waiting...wanted to go to the supermarket and they called me..
the gentleman on the phone was very nice..he told me that because of my 10 years experience, they think it would be better for me to become cabin manager..ok, i don't mind..i told him also, that i don't mind to start as CC..no, he said it is better CM....ok, now, the little problem is, will do i have to go through an interview again, unfortunately, he could not answer..my file has to go through other management approvals...i asked him, if i could not get through, can i get the CC job then ? could not answer ...so, i m like on stanby now....their answer was not "no" but not a "yes," just ahve to wait 2 more weeks, and then i will get an answer..i think they are planning how they will get cabin managers...
so, see guys, the waiting is a torture, i know, i can hardly sleep...but we have to go through...and if it is not working this time, you can try again...
does anybody here had the same experience ?
so, here is my mn adress [email protected] if you want to chat with me to share infos or experiences, or if you haev questions..
take care guys and keep the fingers crossed it will be ok...

joining date.

Hi.

I have already completed my medicals and have already gotten it all cleared. I have already gotten an email from Ryan asking me about an estimated start date. I have already given him a date but he hasnt confirmed it yet, or even given me any information on the next steps.

How does this all really work? What kind of measures do i need to take to finally leave and start working for the company? What is the best way to finally get a start date and get everything settled? The HR seems so impossible to get a hold of.

please help me im so lost.

Replies for a couple of you

Robyn, it's usually a good idea to always have some money with you when you travel...or have a way to get quick access to it! I have a couple friends who work at Etihad, and they say you get paid for training (I don't know how much) but Etihad isn't going to give you money when you walk off the plane on your first day.

NNicoleF, if you have emails from Ryan, maybe you can ask him again for confirmation. Maybe you can make up that you have a vacation to plan or something so can he get back to you. Maybe you can mention about your cousin living in Abu Dhabi, but I've heard your housing arrangements happen pretty quick.

Philippe, UGH! Good luck with the wait. So much for "no news is good news" huh? Well, at least it's cool that they think your experience is good. I wonder if maybe you'll get two jobs. LOL Good luck!

Blokker

Hi Blokker !
I tried many times to send you an email but there is something strange with your address!!! check your emails maybe you received mine.
From your email I guess you are from Netherlands ,I didn't see any assessment scheduled for Amsterdam on the Etihad web site,so may I ask you:
In which country you will attend the Etihad interview ?
Regards

Scary Qalbi

Hey there Qalbi

I received text messages from 2 people in the final interview from my group who received the thanks but no thanks rejection email. So if you have not received anything by now that is an awesome sign hang in there.

Medicals:

Pages 1 and 2 of medical eye test blood pressure reflexes etc etc and also including the first 6 vaccinations cost me AUD435.00.. I still have 2 vaccinations to go as you cant do them all at the same time and that will be an extra $120 I nearly died at the cost still dont know if I have the position.

Chest Xray will be bulk billed by Medicare, and the aviation doctor will refer you to a radiologist in your area takes 1min

Dental Examination, cost me $90 this included the 2 bitewing xrays and OPG xray which are both required.

So It is very expensive, if you need any advice at all when it comes to your medicals just send me an email.

qalbi ,lindsay and blokker

hey qalbi, i think also that is a good sign that you haven't received anythin yet...just be patinet a few more days...ppl from my group are still waiting too, so, you are not alone...just try to relax and i keep the fingers crossed for you, i m on msn, so if you have questions...

hey lindsay...i know, all theses things are very expensive, but at least, they will be done, and when you will receive the final answer, it will be ready to go..

blokker,i got your email, i will answer to you, but just a little bit patient, i m terribly busy right now, with a lot os stuff here...but i will be back to you vry very soon

on my side, as i told you previously, i m good for another two weeks of waiting, and i hope also, that i will get good news...i m talking to friends, they are saying it is a good sign that they want me as CM...but until i don't have the final answer, i keep realistic and focused...

let me know as soon as you get news...

fingers crossed

Etihad cabin crew

Hi everyone,
Im from Japan and interested in Etihad so much!!
I applied their application but they had not replied .
If I go the open days directly in any country, is it possible to join the interview?

And, Im working as a cabin crew in Japan.
Do Etihad give preference to people with some experience???

Thanks a lot.
