jess.s!

i felt for you indeed but don't get upset because sometimes it is really luck that works whatever you do or how qualified you are doesn't work.i had been in same condition some time ago but as i said luck sometimes comes above everything unfortunatelly! at least you have done your best!
don't worry!

Don`t feel so bad about it, 6 months will go by fast. I agree with Dilvinay, sometimes is a matter of luck (specially during OD where 100s of people apply). Please do not hesitate to contact me anytime.

You keep trying, DONT GIVE UP!

to all

i have questions to those who already got call from EK and proceed to medical and more tedious paperworks.
what entry permit are they refering to? i didn't receive mine with the email. Flyrules, we are not talking about the entry permit we filled in during final interview.
what ID and badge form ? i didn't receive such forms.
lastly, do you email them the whole 10 pages of acceptance of offer after you signed or only the page 8....
pls help.
thanks

For next OD

Hi Jess

I read your posts and was very sad to hear that you did not make it through, even if you would have travelled to malaysia for those interviews. I am flying for Ek and it took me 2 open Day to make it! But from the first i learned! It was also during the fisrt group discussion! If you have talked too much, than it was the reason why you were dismissed!!!! Because in that discussion only those are taken over to the next round who don`t talk too much!! I don`t know why but you can believe me! I remembera girl, whih was also with me at the 2nd OD and when i told her not to talk too much during the fisrt round she did not want to belive me, but as we were both arabs, she finally did and we both made it through and all, really, all who talked that much were all sent back home!!! Keep this advice only for your info and do not let it everybody know, may be everyone will tell it to anybody and EK will change these things!!!! Kep it for yourself! I only advice severel people with this behaviour during this discussion and i also did it to you to help you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Good luck and keep fighting Girl!!!

Best regards!!!!!!1

Jessmin,

Did you get my email? I will definatelly email you those missing forms (if I get them in my package). I was told by EK that there are some forms to be completed online (EK recruitment website). Have you done it yet? What was it all about?

Just don`t give up. In 6 month You can try again, and the expirience that You `ve got will help You. My first OD was also a very big and helpfull expirience for me. Good Luck.

Yay, well I have just got through to the final one on one interview with EK... I went to the recruitment day in Brisvegas... I think about 40 or more of us were retained for one-on-one interviewing, so I have some q's if you all don't mind...

1. What will I be asked in the final interview?
2. How many of us will be hired out of 40 do you anticipate?
3. This is my most pressing q - I cannot start for 2 and a half months. Is this going to be seen as me 'not being committed to the job' ? Will it go against me?

Thank y'all!!!

hello inlovewith emirates!

well i don't know if i can give some personal or private details here but please someone let me know if i am wrong! i won't do it again!
ok i am T,was born in Germany/munchen and was also grown up there. i studied russian language and literature so it is quite normal for me to know pushkin (can never forget- yevgeniy onegin ).i have been in england for sometime so as a matter of fact i can speak 4 languages.i am not from istanbul i am from Agean see from izmir it is in turkey as well!
as i understood you are german aren't you?
the thing that makes me upset here i think i am the only T interested in this forum. i wish other T people could be interested in here. because i am addicted and it is perfect!so i think!
soo it comes to the reason i am here i have 4 days to go!
xxx

____________________________________________________________ ____
1. Evrything about your current job or study. Different situations. Actually You cant`t prapare any answers for the final interview. If You speak good English, this is enough....Try not to be very nerves and just be yourself.
2. Nobody canīt answer this quastion. May be nobody, may be some of them....it depends on...? I really don`t know.
3. You have to say it when You have Your final interview. But actually , after the final interview You have to wait for the answer from EK..it usually takes some time till they proove You. May be one months,may be 2 may be 3....
As I have read in this forum one girl has got her approvement after 6 month.

I still didn`t get any call or E-mail from EK. I calld them 4 days ago, I just wanted to be sure if they had got my documents. I was told that they would contact me. I worry so much.

You have 2 month before You moove to Dubai. But why in September? 2 month for medicals? Or was it Your persenal ask? The most important You have done , I am just wondering why not in August.

InLoveWithEmirates

When I recieved the call on saturday morning, I was told all training classes for august are full. She asked me to complete all medicals, scan them and email them along with all forms as soon as possible. She basically gave me no other options but september 14th. She also asked me what city I was flying out of and whether or not I hold a valid US visa to travel via JFK (which I do).

When I filled out the application form, I told them I as available right away. However, in my case, there are lots of things I need to take care of before moving to Dubai (bank accounts, credit cards, etc), so I reckon 2 months is just enough time for me to put it all together. I currently have a management position with a major airline (AA) and I dont want to just walk away on them, specially since my boss has been my biggest fan through out this EK process. She supports me 100%.

I stayed in touch with couple of people from the OD in Santa Cruz (may 30th) and so far I am the only one who has already been contacted by EK. It doesnīt mean the rest will not be contacted, I am sure they will recieve the call this week or so.

So, if I were you, I wouldnt worry about it so much. I am sure you will hear from them soon. Perhaps we will end up starting on the same day!

Keep in mind: NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS!

OD vs. Global Assesment Day

I was curious if anyone had attended the Assesment day instesd of the OD. On the Assesment day do you go staight to an interview, or do you have to go through all the qualifying rounds like OD? If not why doesn't everyone sign up for assesment day? And how many people attend the assesment day? If anyone could shed some light on this it would be helpful, because I have really heard about it just the OD.
Thanks
And congrats to Flyrules
