Hi Mr. 1A,
try and try and try again until you get in!!! I remember that one recruitment officer of Emirates (Jessica from London) told us that some applicatnts tried for 4 or 5 times and they finally got in! So don`t give up and try again and take every new Open Day as an experience! I made it last year to the final interview but was not successful. Now I`m waiting for them to come again! If everything goes well I will show up in Munich (Germany) in January 2008! I hope that the same recruiters will be there but I always hear that they change so we have to give our best!!!!! I am pretty sure that Emirates is waiting for us:-))))))

med exam..
Hey guys i'm back, i'm done with my med exam today so after a few days i'll be getting my result from my GP. I had all my vaccines today (5 consecutive shots), so just imagine how i am after a few hours (i was so sleepy and weak like i'm holding a sack of rice)!
Gotta go for now i need some rest...

Keep trying.. Don't give up!
I agree with Midadi... Just keep on getting right back up with every knock to the ground - this should only make you stronger & more determined to get the job!
Look at me for an example.. I'm still on a mission trying again & again it's humanily not possible to do it anymore. If you really want something so much as this, it will happen. If not, try other avenues & get your foot in the door or take up studies or what ever means to gain knowledge & experience to better improve yourself for the next time you try. You've got nothing to lose but only to gain everything you have absorbed - if that make any sense at all??
I'm looking forward to my 3rd attempt coming up in 2 weeks (should I be posting this.. lol??).

Well, after waiting 3 weeks since I sent my medicals to them via email, I have gotten an email informing me that they have not received anything yet. This is really annoying. The email didn't bounce back to me, so they must have it in their inbox. Quite frustrating, especially when in the eariler stages I had to send my photos again because they lost them!
I may just fax everything through instead...if they don't get it then...

DOJ
Juzz51: When is your DOJ? did you check your sent items?may be you mispelled something on the email address or may be they accidentally deleted it...It's really annoying after waiting for 3 weeks nothing happened
To make sure that they will receive it, send it by email again and by fax then call them if they received already your medical report through fax...

piece of advise:
hostie1985:
yah it's true but for your hepa vaccine there should be a 2nd dose after 6mos. do you have all the records of your previous vaccines? 'coz mine, have all the vaccine in 1 day ( 5 different shots)... you mean you'll get the result after 2 weeks? that's weird...i finish my medical exam including dental thingy in 1 day ecxept for my cervical pap smear as i have my period at that time and after 3 days i already had my result including my HIV test. ask your GP why it will take that long for your result... and you should have your chest & dental xray with 2 bitewing xray as well..

honey cathy
well i've gone through the NHS so things seem to take a bit longer, i've had all my examinations and all my x-rays are done so just waiting on them getting back to the doctor. not sure why it takes so long! i did email them to let them know, but noone emailed me back, hope there not annoyed! i have medical records for some of the vacinations that i've had byt according to emirates they will be out of date as i had them more than 10 years ago but my doctor said he wont give me the jag again as its totally pointless! he bascially said the whole form was a joke and far too intrusive, uh oh! think he was a bit annoyed! xxx

The doctor obviously needs shooting 
My doctor asked no questions and I had to pay him £100 to get the full examination, jabs and for him to sign the forms. If you managed to get most of the other medicals on the NHS, would it not be possible to get the jabs done privately? Ofcourse, it will mean that you have to pay for it but saves you the aggro from the doctor. Good Luck

sydney assessment/openday/interview
Hey there, is anyone going to the assessment/openday/interview beginning on the 9/12 in Sydney?
Does anyone know if it goes all week, or if you just go for the day on sunday and nominate a timeslot throughout the following week for an interview if successful? Also what should be expected?
Can anyone tell me what the conditions are like - pay, progression, accomodation, etc... and whether or not its worth it?
I know its all a matter of opinion but some advice would be good.
Cheers

cc1986: It should only take up half the day on sunday, then if you are successful all day on Monday & possibly the one-on-one interview over the following 3 days thereafter - Tues, Wed or Thurs which of course will only be an hour if I remember correctly.
I'm attending the Melb one which starts on the Sat which will follow with assessments on Sunday.
Best of luck guys!

Sydney open day
Hi cc1986
I’ll be popping along to Sydney! I asked last week how many to expect to be there and by the sounds of things it will be a big day.
I’m assuming that Sydney will be run like Brisbane, so the day (or week if your lucky) should be roughly as follows.
Sunday things will kick of at 9:00am sharp. The whole group will be taken into the conference room and the recruiters (normally 2) will introduce themselves, and give a brief talk about Dubai, the UAE, Emirates Airlines, and the role of their cabin crew.
There will be a brief questions and answers session, after which everyone will have the chance (about 1 min) to meet the recruiters as you hand in your resume and photos – that’s a crucial time to make a good impression!
Afterwards you will watch a few video presentations about the topics mentioned above while the recruiters skim through the resumes. Once the videos come to a close the group will most likely be given a short lunch recess. After the break, letters will be handed out to everyone informing you of if you will be progressing to the next stage (group activities) or sorry - but come back in 6 months!
This is where I was knocked out first time round L
Usually the lucky few are called back into the room and invited back the following day for the group activities and further eliminations. If you are successful the following day you will be invited back for the third and final 2-on-1 interview, this may take place the next day of a few days later.
I hope that gives you an idea of what to expect. If it is your first interview it cam be quite overwhelming to walk into a room of 200 immaculately groomed, professional looking people! I know I was quite taken aback, but if you have a thorough read through this and the other Emirates wannabees threads you will really get a good feel for what to expect, which in turn will make you more confident! – You’ll also find info on living/working conditions, pay etc.
Even if I am not successful this time, I’m looking forward to it. I met some wonderful people at my first interview that made it through, and having kept in touch with them has only made me more determined.
Good luck!!! Hope to see you there!
