OMG!
As i am waiting for my medical result this morning, i had read again the contract that they sent to me and suddenly i read this paragraph before the declaration page that says "This offer will remain open for your acceptance until 24-Nov-2007. If we do not hear from you by this date, the offer may be withdrawn." I receive it last Nov. 17 and i just sent it today immediately after i've read that line...Am i gonna be in trouble coz i submitted it after 4 days of their given date?...

Did you email/fax them the signed contract like I think I mentioned in my other post? If you have, it should not be too much of a problem, as I sent my medicals two days late but I did ring them to tell them that I would not be able to get my medicals to them on the date which they specified. They were understanding and said that I should get it to them as soon as I can, preferably within 2 weeks. It's not a problem, so try ringing them and just letting them know once again.

So when is your DOJ? I'm sure you're very excited! I just sent the declaration page this morning by email and i wrote it also that i will send my medical report as soon as i get my result...well, i hope so because if they're going to withdraw it then they will send me an email for sure.. I feel better now but i just hope that they will reply to my letter...Thanks Ali!

assessment day in manchester on 28th November
Hi everyone!
I was just wondering if anyone else will be attending the assessment day in manchester on 05/12/07? (a week today!) I'm so excited and nervous. Also if anyone has recently attended an assessment day in the UK any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Paris OD
I all,
I've just past my final interview at the Paris OD last 24th of november. There was around 215 of us, then 39 remained to the final interviews. In Emirates Recruiting, this has been a record per Recruitment Officers. People came from all over Europe. It was very enriching and very friendly but stressful days. Selection took place on the Saturday, CV round, 1minute interview round, english test round and then we were invited to join group exercise the following morning @ 9am. Then 39 finally made it threw to the final ITW's... Now waiting for the blessed call !
So from what I've gathered, that is what the calendar looks like from now on :
Final ITW > 6 weeks > Job Offer > Email with Contract & Meds > Final Approval >2 weeks max > DOJ > 4 days before fly out > E-tickets > FLy Out > Move In > 4 days idle > Training Starts
Did I get that right ?

Hi....a big congratulations to you...i am sure you will get the call...it just seems that the people in this forum get the calls....so i hope to hear from you soon.
About your order of events...you are right...except that time varies for everyone...some get called in a week and others 6 weeks and others even longer!
All the best!
Honeycathy
I dont think you should worry...did they send you a confirmation saying that they received your medicals??if they did then i don't think you should worry too much
dandanjose
When you called them what did they say?...seems to have taken a bit too long if you ask me....
Vickster

And good luck to everyone else that like me is waiting for final approval and also those waiting for the golden call!

Once again, don't worry too much about it, they are not that strict and its not like you were late on purpose. I have learnt one thing from EK, once you fax something off, also email it and add a message with it and 48hours later call them to confirm they have received it!...its works, providing you get through on the telephone, though after a couple of attempts you usually get through (well I did). My date of joining is Friday 11th January 2008 - currently I sit at work and look at the EK flights heading toward LHR from the office window!hehe
Vicster: I didn't know you have a blog...whats the URL? Infact I am in the process of starting my one up too, should go up in the next couple of weeks. I am being far too picky with layouts etc!
Sodwee: Congrats for making it to the final interview. 39 for the final interview! Phew...then again I went to an assessment day in London rather than an open day where 50 were narrowed down to 9 for the final interview. Well wish you the very best of luck.
Dandanjose: I am sure its been told before but hang in there, it can only be good news. My friend who just started with EK last week rang me to confirm that they are recruiting loads of Brasilians, with around 200 already having been taken onboard! Hang in there, might be seeing you in Dubai!

I'm back! it's been quite a while since my last posted message, been busy working this past few days...i already sent my medical result today through fax and email. As Ali mentioned before, i will call them after a few days just to confirm if they've received it. So happy for the result everything's normal, just hope that i submitted all the details that they needed so less worry now hehehehehh...
Ali: question: did you send also the copy of passport/birth certificate for your dependants details? 'coz i didn't send it...

You do not need to send any photocopies of passports. Have you completed the online joiners form from the Emirates website in the Selected candidates section?
You will need photocopies to take with you to Dubai of passports and birth certificates, marriage certificates for parents etc, so get them done in advanced if you need to. So you don't forget anything last minute and no need to panic then.
I am sure you will get your Final Approvals very soon (make sure you ring them )

Hey, i'm flying on friday this week. Got my cases packed and they weigh 57kg i really don't know how to get them any smaller ive been through them both 4 times and i cant see anything i dont want to take. I haven't got my e-tickets or visa yet so bit worried about that!
I'm taking about £500 i think so i hope i have enough to last me.
Anyone else flying friday or next week? you all excited? ali xander and Vic you both ready for next week? you changed your money? you managed to fit you stuff into 50kg?
Becky xxxx

Hey Becky, its good that you have already gotten your packing out of the way! 57kilos..what are you carrying in those suitcases! (depending what type of suitcases you are carrying, there are some which are really light and durable, so opting for one of those might lower the amount on the scales). Don't worry too much about your visa and ticket, you should get that tomorrow or Wednesday (if you havent by tomorrow evening then I suggest you ring them). I still have 38 days left before I fly out (not that I am counting or anything!) so I am packing but very slowly! Though each time I venture out to the shops, I feel the urge of buying clothes, like that to die for coat from Zara costing £130! (I didn't buy it!).
£500 pounds should be enough, I spoke to someone from EK and they said that amount should be more than enough to get by.
I guess you should make the best of your last few days in the UK as you will soon be heading to better climes! Oh and you'll have an amazing time too!
