I called the Emirates HR this morning and asked if they already received the reference that i'd sent last week and the staff that i spoke with said yes and it's under process now so probably they will call me after 3-4 days or til sunday as she said... OMG! Is this a good sign????

During the interview, they tell you to wait 6 weeks and that if they have not gotten back to you by then, you can call or email to find out your results.
i called after 7 weeks and it was a good thing i did because i got my call a week later and i am now just through with my medicals....that is all i was trying to say....and my message was to encourage honeycathy because she was sounding stressed out!!

some people seem to have a problem with me encouraging you....but i won't stop!yes...it is a good sign if they say that your file is being processed...if you go back a few pages, you will see that i was also in a similar situation...now just sit tight and wait for them to call...All the best!

what questions did they ask you?
I was not confident after my interview with Emirates but got the job, then again, I might think I did not do good but I was obviously what they were looking for. You can never tell, the best thing is to not think about it and wait for their decision (easier said than done)

Hey...work is going ok. I am getting more and more excited everyday, which is not helping as I can't sleep at night! I am sure you will get your final approval very soon, I would advise that you wait a couple of days and then ring them to find out whether they have received the documents.
I am not sure if you get Xmas day off, I doubt it to be honest being an Islamic country and thus following the Islamic calendar of events. Then again, with the number of foreigners living in Dubai, there is still a chance of getting Xmas day off.
I've started packing...do you think I'm mad as I dont leave until January!hehe

Hey Vickster,
I'm totally in the same position as you. I'll be training over Christmas. However, speaking to some friends out there, as suspected, they don't think we're going to get Christmas off. To be fair we are expected to work through public holidays so I'm not too surprised we'll be working through the Christian holdays.
Don't fret: there'll be many other people in your position (myself included). I'm sure you'll make many friends and probably be able to spend some part of the day with them celebrating...
Good luck with everything.
regards,
Phil

Hey, i think i was lucky that my interviewer was so nice...where she thought my answers were unsatisfactory, she would ask an almost similar question to make sure that she gets my full answer..and like the others have said...don't worry...just wait...it will do you no good going over things that have already passed and can't change, although have to admit that i have been in your shoes just worrying endlessly and going over each and every aspect of the interview to see where i went wrong...
just finished with my medicals, i have scanned and emailed them now....so another nail biting wait for my approval..

It sucks about the whole xmas thing if you won't be given the day off...but i don't know if it was me i really wouldnt mind...coz i have wanted this for so long and like you said..you will make friends that you can celebrate with.
cheers!
ALI
You crack me up.....already packed???but i feel you...i think as soon as i get my final approval i will pack even if my date is in Jan....so exciting!

Sleepy - I had an e-mail back this morning saying they'd received the e-mails so hopefully it wont be long i'm alright leaving it a few days i know they're busy. You crashed your car ?? Are you ok?
No my missing medicals were different to your i think it might be e-mailing them for me i e-mailed a few together maybe they were too big !
Ali - that's funny you've started to pack already !! not long now .
I'm off to work now i'm a waitress part time in a local pub so its good practise i suppose !!

The very best of luck in Dubai! I am sure you won't have much time to post with training and painting the town red, but hope you have a safe trip over and I am sure I'll bump into you when I get there in January! Have fun!

I know exactly what you mean about turning into an insomniac..I have been having the same problem! It's worst for me as I am sure I will stay like this until January! aaargh...
I am trying to think about other things, like turning 23 on the 25th, but however much I try, my mind is still heading off to Emirates & Dubai!
