Etihad flies to only a few destinations thats why the flying hours are so low for the crew. When the airline adds more flights to its itinerary the more the crew will start flying.
Abu Dhabi is super boring. Good luck with that.

Whatzmyname... Etihad only flies to a few destinations? 39 only a few??
When I was at Etihad I was flying with only minimum days off. I have many friends still there and I understand this is still the case.
And Abu Dhabi boring? Hmm... I always say you make your own fun. Needless to say I had a rocking time at Etihad!
For those applying to Etihad go for it! I left for the big competitor up the road and can honestly say the grass is always greener!! With the new payrise Etihad is right up there with EK! Give them a chance and you will see more changes

Recruitment Day
i went to the EY recrutiment day and found it to be organised with good information about Abu Dhabi, i hadn't really thought about living outside of home and the presentation made me think about living in a diff country! still want to fly! i had tried out for the EK day in Bris (not sucessful 
) and thought the Ey day was better as they were kind to us during the day the process was not that different from EK.

EY
Do they explain the salary and conditons of contract at the assessment day?
Also do they do 1 on 1 interviews on the same day or do they ask you to come back the following day?

words of advice???
I would suggest those who are reading this post to ignore the defamatory and highly derrogatory comments made by Mustapha Rex .....
Their opinion, of course, is allowed, but please do not let their comments bias your opinion. As I have said previously, there are many people working for EY (myself included - and no, I am NOT in Management - I am crew!) and we do not necessarily share Mustapha Rex's views.
I am sure that you are able to read through this post for yourself and get an opinion that EY of your own. EY is an improving company ( yes we have had some not so good times in the past - but it is time to move on and see that positive changes are happening, and that the conditions are not THAT bad.
I, for one, am happy that I am here as I know what it is like in other airlines and am enjoying the ride so far......It is a far cry from what I came from...and I know many of my friends are now looking at coming over here!!!
(It irks me that someone can write such defammatory comments here with no respect to other human beings.....
) Sounds like a bit of a case of sour grapes to me.....

SYD assessment day
HI guys.
I had attended the SYD afternoon session.
We started at 12.30pm.
1. Registration Form. They give you a form to fill out including personal info., airline experience, tatoos, eye sight.
2. Reach test. 214cm height shoes off tip toes is ok.
3. Hand in your CV with a passport photo.
Then they ask us to go to another room for presentation.
The presentation got info. like life in AUH, 3yr renewable contract, benefits, CC training, EY history and penalty if you leave under 6 mths (i think, cant remember) you have to pay the airtkt going home.
4. 20mins English test (easy questions)
5. 2 on 1 short question time. Bascially everyone were numberd (depends on how quick you reply to their email/phone call). This is the longest part of the day. I waited for almost 2 hrs to get to see them. And I only spent 3 mins in there. First, they as you to pick a thing (newspaper, tray, water, lipstick, mobile phone, bottle of water...etc) and tell them why you chose this object.
And they asked 'do you have custmer service background' or 'you said you got airline experience, what sort of area you were working in?' or 'why you wanna work for EY?' or 'why you wanna become CC?'
deselection point
Then we wait about 45 mins. They called some numbers, ard 20 ppl they called (including a girl who turn up in jeans n going out outfits, can you believe it?!?!). All these ppl were really quiet in that day. As everyone know that part of the airline interview, you have to be part of the team, so ppl intend to talk to others among the applicants. But with EY I think they want more quiet personality.
And then they have another presentations for ppl who pass the 1st stage. Follow by group discussion. And another deselection point. Ppl who pass this one will b invited to have a final interview at the end of day.
My advise to you who is attending future assessment day is be part of the group. DONT B TO CHATTY. Stand there and look nice.
Best wishes to all of you. Keep up the good work, looking forward to hear good news from you guys.

Waiting.......
Hi All...
This is my first post
I just completed the assessment in Sydney 23rd March... Was a hell of a long day.
I made it through 2 deselection processes and through to the final interview.
I was told an answer will be made in AUH and notified by email in a week. Found it awkward the the recruitment team I have been assessed by and knowing me as potential applicant be travelling the world recuiting and leaving the decision making to EY Headquaters in AUH?
Anyway... Fingers crossed...Once I get the answer Im to take the medical clearance. Medical Forms looks like a mission..anyone can shed light on it? Do I have to take it to an Aviation Physician as they say?

Well, they will never tell u the upper age limit , but so far if they like u, u will get the job.
The oldest crew we have is 41 or 43, he is CM, but he looks like he has 28
Amazing!

Reach test
Do you have to be able to reach 214cm with both hands at the same time or just one hand? This is crucial information, because if it's with two hands if might as well give up now...

The 0800-1000 is normally the CV Drop off. Where they invite you back the next day if they like you. For the full 0800-1800 Assessment day.
I went last week to Sydney's one. Firstly is registration, followed by a reach test of 214cm with one arm.
*Approx 45min presentation of the Airline etc etc...
*Split up into 2 groups. One does the English test..while the other does the one on one pshyco..test..Then vice versa
BREAK
A cut is made.. in this case we had 64 candidates..the first cut was 42 which left 22.
LUNCH
Remaining 22 have activities, scenarios. - A further wait.
Then a final cut. I believe there were 10 left. Luckily I was one of them
Final interview and now I am waiting for a response.... They informed me of a result in a week.... Fingers Crossed
Goodluck Oh4Show

Hi
I got a call to confirm im attending the EY interview. Did anyone else receive a phone call to confirm the details. Does anyone know if its the Grand Mecure Swanston Street or Grand Mecure Flinders lane. The email says Flinders lane but i rang the flinders lane hotel and they said they dont have any details of EY comming on Mon. bit confused. They told me on the phone they were sending me a new email with the details but yet again I didnt receive it. Don't know why.
Anyone got the exact details?
