Waiting waiting waiting!!!!

Hey guys!!!

No answers so far !!! Today is completing 5 weeks with no answer and i am about to have a heart attack !!!

Also i had some friends that sent their pictures with weeks of delay and they got the golden call last week. Should I be worried or just forget it.

Anyway, last year they sent me the no wanted letter in 3 weeks what makes a huge difference.

Fingers crossed guys and hopefuly i see you soon.

bye bye

Golden Call

Dear DanDan,

From my experience, the HR people at Emirates have so many crew to deal with that the time scales they give us seem more like estimates rather than set in stone. Have a friend who flew out a couple of weeks ago and she only received her final approval a week before her commencement date and her ticket two days before she flew. There was a lot of money spent on international phone calls that week!

Some times they need a gentle nudge to get something out of them. I think, if you start to panic, get in touch with the Recruitment team that interviewed you and see if they have any luck finding out any information.

No news is definately good news as they seemed very quick at issuing emails and letters regarding bad news.

Good luck! You'll be fine...

Regards,
Phil

Thanks!

Thanks for the Congrats message EmiratesCCmad and others who have been reading my blog eg. Vickster and jess.s

It feels great to have finally graduated! I havent checked pprune.org for a long time now! Tomorrow I have my first Supi flight to Istanbul (turnaround) and I'm quite nervous.. Have to study tonight all my SEP and First Response stuff all over again to be ready for tomorrow!


Congrats to everyone who has got in! It is so much fun here in Dubai, I have no regrets coming here at all! Training is intense, but the 6 weeks went quickly!!!

Brisbane - Nov 24

Hi everyone,

I went to an open day in Brisbane in December last year. There was about 200 of us present so they asked us to give them our CVs and we would be called if successful.

Unfortunately for me, I didn't get a phone call but I'm going to try my luck again in a couple of weeks.

Just wondering if anyone else is going to the open day in Brisbane on Nov 24?

Also, a number of girls were wearing pants which I know is not prefered ...but does it really make any difference if you wear pants instead of a skirt?

Thanks

Doj - 21/12/2007

Hi everyone, I got my final approval today. So I am leaving on the 21st of December, anyone else start training on the 27th?

Brizgirl send me a pm with your email and Ill email you a whole list of tips, my friend gave it to me (she has been working for emirates for 2 years) and it helped me a great deal. I got through on the last Brisbane open day, id say only 10% of girls where wearing pants and when you called back for day two they ask you to wear a skirt so I just did as I was told.

xx

Hi BrizGirl,

I am not attending the Brisbane open day but hope to attend the one in Sydney in the beginning of December. I have butterflies already!

Good luck for the open day and congratulations to all of those who have just received the good news

Honey cathy

Dont give up!!! Never give up!!!!

They would never ask for references if they werent interested in you. You should call them and ask if they received the references on time or if they need something else but i am sure they will get back to you soon.

Dont show you are desperate for the job ( actually both of us are desperate for a great opportunity there).

anyway let me know if you have news soon. I have been waiting for 5 weeks and 2 days now. The deadline is short and i am very confident about an answer soon (positive or negative)!!!

Catch you latter

For your peace of mind, just call them and ask if everything is okay with your file..don't get depressed, they would not be bothering with your file if they didnt think you had potential...and do not let anyone on this forum or around you to get you down!okay!...keep your chin up...they will call!

Jkfly,

Not to sound rude or anything, but they get 30,000 applications a month and interview hundreds of people and hundreds of new recruits to process, how do you expect them to remember you after 6 weeks?

dandanjose, be patient, the longer you wait the more likely the answer will be positive...

Honey Cathy

Hello,

Regarding your reference, they called me regarding getting another image submitted, which I did and sent the next day. After I'd sent it off (literally an hour after I'd dropped it off at the UK HQ) I called them up just to make sure it was received. I made it through to the final stage.

When HR in Dubai emailed me regarding getting my haemoglobin and HIV reports, I re submitted them and called them straight after.

I'm flying out on Friday to begin training next week so I wouldn't panic about anything. I was probably the biggest pain in their a*s but I had to because of the line of work I was in before: I'm not the most patient person when it comes to correspondence.

As mentioned before, the guys from Emirates would not have been in touch if they were not considering your application.

Keep your chin up

Phil
