questions
i don't have any tattoos anywhere, but is it against the rules if i was to get one in a non visible place? Does anyone here have any tattoos? Also, if theres anyone form NZ or australia here do you know if electrical stuff like my hairdryer will work in dubai? I have brought an adaptor plug thing but the man in the shop said my straightner may not work cos it has high voltage or something?
Thanks!!

Hey Jess, CONGRATS!!!
I am so happy for you. I hope this means I will be contacted early next week as well! (my final was may 30th).
kimberlyk,
I actually do have a tattoo on my upper back, a very small one though. I told them about it during the final interview as they asked me about any birthmarks or tattoos. They said, that was not a issue whatsoever as it is not visible at all. I had it done when I was 19, a revel and a
teenager! ...one of those things I do regret now days...

Dont worry, as far as I know there are alot of russian cabin crew in EK.
Even when we watched the video on the Open Day. There were some Cabin Crews giving an interview ,they were of different natanalities and a russian girl was also among them.

hi! i'd like to ask if Emirates really strict with the teeth? because my lower teeth are misaligned and I have an Emirates assessment on July1. I'm scared that I might fail d screening because of my teeth.

Just a thought.
Hi Everyone!!
I’ve been reading these forums for a while but this is my first post.
Firstly Congratulations to everyone that has recently received AWESOME, AWESOME news!
I hope that I will be joining you soon in Dubai!
Ok yes I know that this is my first post but I have to gt something off my chest.
This thread offers some VERY relevant and VERY useful information – if you bother to look for it.
(So thank you to everyone who has contributed to this)
What I really don’t understand is why the same question is asked 1000 times.
I know that most of you – like me – really, REALLY want a career as cabin crew with EK, and again, like me would have a million questions, but what I don’t understand is why people don’t take the time to look for themselves for the answers to their questions.
There are some really amazing posts by people who take the time and write about their experiences at open days, what to expect, what to wear, what type pf questions will be asked, what the medicals include, what living in Dubai will be like, the length of stopovers, what company ethos is like etc etc. The information here is VAST!!
People if you are serious about working for EK, or any airline for that matter - do your OWN homework - don’t ask for it to be done for you! Airlines like if you have something known as initiative
Asking when the next open day in Timbuktu is, is crazy. The best place to find out information like this is at the EK WEBSITE! http://www.emiratesgroupcareers.com/http://dxbmiww99.emirates.com/hrrecruit/CC_OpenDay/CC_OpenDayList.asp
Honestly I don’t understand why this wouldn’t be your first port of call. You will find important and essential information there – including WHEN and WHERE EK is recruiting. You will also find that they tell you, what to wear to the open day, and what to take.
They even have a section dedicated to what to expect in Dubai.
I know that ALL your questions won’t be answered at the EK website.
Even after reading this forum I would be surprised if you were left with no questions, - BUT most of your questions, if you DO bother to read WILL be answered.
I’m not attempting to offend anybody, I just think it would be beneficial to everyone if we thought and read previous information before we posted (I think you will find you will remember the answers to your questions a little better if you do your own homework too)
Anyway, that’s my rant.
Congrats again to everyone who was successful!!!
And good luck to all you wannabes like me!
Cheers!

Hey guys,
Please do not hesitate to ask the same question over and over again! As far as I am concerned and if necessary, I am willing to give the same answer again, and again, and again... That`s what this forum is all about.
Eventhough the recruitment process has been pretty much the same for each one of us, there is always a little twist. We all have learned from those unique experiences. I have read every single message posted in this forum and everyone`s is unique because it comes from a different person, different culture, different perspective, and that is what EK is about: diversity.
I DO agree with sandpit however, people should read the EK website (completely) as it contains general information, guidelines and details about the process. It should be your first resource.
So please, let`s keep this a friendly environment. I know some of us have bonded while sharing our experiences. We all hope at one point, to join EK and eventually meet in person during training in Dubai (or at least that is something I am looking forward to!)
So peace! and don`t bang your head against the wall too much (oouch!)

hmmmmm
I don’t think sandpit was being hostile or unfriendly....and I really don’t think that sandpit meant to offend; I think the meaning was simply to have a good read and make the most of your opportunity to research through other people’s experiences, and to be a little proactive and use common sense.

sandpit here i come was not being hostile - he/she was absolutely accurate.
I know that many, including the mods, are astonished by the number of people posting on this (and the Eitihad) thread who are unprepared to make even the most basic efforts to do their own research and yet expect to be hired, presumably by divine right.
It is very kind of you all to offer to accept the same questions and then regurgitate the same answers time after time to people who simply cannot be bothered to read the available information: I promise you that you will tire of it eventually. Moving to another country and starting a new career are major steps in your lives - you need to be very cool and hard-headed about the business and ensure that your excitement and optimism are balanced by a well-grounded sense of reality. People that you assist now may be your work colleaguees in the future, which is great if they work well and you get on: However in a years time when you discover that they are always somewhere else when a call bell rings on your third night sector in a week, or that somehow it is always you that seems to clear up the vomit, your assessment may change.
So... Support each other as best you can: Provide useful information by all means - But don't pander to those who are too lazy to do the same work that you have done. That will help nobody, least of all those wwho may end up in a career that they are unsuitable for.
