Fotos

Becky: As far as I know, the 20 photos are passport sized and over a blue background. The place I took my pics at which were sent to Dubai with my application told me that should I get the job, she would use the same passport sized fotos but just change the background and print them for me. I don't know if they can do that at the place where you had yours done.

As you rigntly pointed out, they also asked for four more pictures too but as far as I know, these are meant to be the 6" by 4" size. I am not sure if they should you be in business attire or casual shots? Any ideas?

Photos

Ali Xander and Beckyr,

As per the document we have received along with the medical requirements, it says the following:

- 20 passport size photographs (Non Polaroid & Non Digital)
- 4 photographs (3cm x 3.5cm) (Non Polaroid & Non Digital without glasses or head dress)

3cm x 3.5cm is a smaller size than the passport size photograph so I pressume they are needed for some sort of formalities where business attire may be required.

I have had them prepared in the same studio where I have had my picture taken for my final interview. It cost me £20.00 for them to change the background colour and then to print them out as required.

Cheers,
Skyisthelimit

just curious....

it's been 5 and a half weeks now since my last interview and i still don't have any clue from emirates if they received all the required documents that i'd sent or if i passed the final interview... about the dental exam, do they need to remove the impacted tooth? sound a bit silly but i'm just curious....

congrats to those new joiners and goodluck to those who's wating for the "golden call"!

Dear all with regard the mumbai jeddah thing ive been flying for 8 yrs already and am more than aware of how hard they are but its not every day and i still enjoy every part of my job , in my experience the flight is very much reflected by the team on the day .some of my best flights have been those with 24hrs down route 60 kids and 50 special meals with 25 wheel chair carry offs or tech problems . i have always wanted to fly for emirates so now im off to dubai aswell . cant wait

Smile Honey cathey

I waited ages too and got the call almost at the 6 week mark.

All i can say is that out of the 12 people that got through to the final interview, the ones that didnt get the job heard almost straight away not one of them waited that long to hear a no .

Good luck i really hope you get it i'll look out for shooting starts for all you guys waiting while i'm out watching fireworks tonight !!!

searching all people leaving December 14th

sleepy740 and jugheadtony here we come!!!!

Salary at Middle East Airlines

Hi guys,

hope you are all doing well!

Who can please tell me at which airline, based in the Middle east, you can get the highest salary? is it Qatar, Emirates or Etihad! From what I have heared it is Qatar then Emirates and the lowest is paid by Etihad! But the best working conditions are as a matter of course within Emirates, followed by Etihad and last but not least Qatar Airways! Still aspiring to get in Emirates but unfortunately I cannot attend any assessmnet day because lots of work:-(

Tearily regards

Second Time Lucky .... Again

Hey guys.

Just wanting to raise a question ....

I was successful this year in gaining employment with EK as crew but had to turn it down because my dad passed away and I could not leave my family.

So .... Now things are more settled and I want to apply again.

Anyone know what the story is as to if I have to wait a year before i apply again? Or can i go to an open day know? Any ideas? Anyone been in the same boat?

I mean if you fail at finals you need to wait a year but what if you passed, got the date to start and then couldn't join. I had to pass up such a good opportunity and have been kicking myself ever since. Any ideas???

i am not sure but i think it depends how much time has gone by..if its past 6 months i think it means you are back to square one and have to start the application process all over again.

Like jkfly says, the offer is there for 6 months, so if it has not been six months, I suggest you get on the phone to them. But we were clearly told at our Assessment day that if you do not join within the 6 months, then you need to apply all over again and not have to wait a full year. If you get turned down at the final interview (which is not your case), then you have to wait 12 months before applying.

Hope that helps and I hope it has not been six months yet, because it would mean that you can still join us! Good Luck
