Interview Frankfurt
Hi everyone.
I had my Final Interview on the 19th of November in Frankfurt. Is there anybody here who had it with me?? I took only one email address and this person has already recieved NO by mail. And I still got nothing. I hope, as it was said before, that NO new is a good news. They have received my doc about two weeks ago.
Please keep your fingers crossed for me.
I have received YES from Qatar Airways, but I prefer Dubai
And I heard many bad things about Qatar so I am scared about going there

have a litle patience
hi all who are packing goodluck with your moves over it seems an eternity since the interview . i arrive at 0025 on the 15th in DXB so will see you over there .
to all who have just started the process and had interviews the best advice i can give (having stressed throughout the whole process) ,is be very patient things happen eventually . its easy to loose all rational thought when your dreams hang on an email but from interview to hearing a word was 3 weeks and medical to final 5 weeks or there abouts . well im packing now and wish every one the best of luck .

Hi, I arrived into dubai at 2am today, it was a bit tricky, when i first got off the plane i couldnt find the welcome staff but went to emirates crew and kept asking for directions to the desk which is on the bottom floor and there they took me to the staff member who was a million miles away from where i left the plane. It took ages to get bags and they don't help you with them!!! Killed my back
i took just over 50kg but they don't like it at all to be over but they are ok with max 5 or 6 extra- butmy handluggage didnt weigh hardly anything.
Once in Dubai and we had our bags we got taken in a bus to our accommodation. You get a phone next to your bed with your own phone number the moment you arrive into dubai and anyone including family all around the world can call this and get in touch with you. Emirates crew have each others apartment numbers and its free to call between emirates apartments. You get this number literally as soon as you meet the marahaba staff.
Once i arrived into my apartment i met my room mate- who was very tired but she has everything from TV to internet to computer. Shared bathroom between 3 in most but have own toilet and sink and big mirror. There is no bed quilt cover, Iron or nice towels here. they give you a set of towels but they wont last very long and will need washing after first use so im going to have to buy towels and a bed quilt cover today. Im situated on the main road in Dubai and it is noisy so i have yet to get used to it.

Melbourne Assessment
Hey Guys,
Well today was exhausting but well worth it especially for me.. I MADE IT TO THE FINAL 2-on-1 interview which is taking place tomorrow. I was suprised with the turn-out. Only 65 people & 28 made it through to final stage. It would've been the usual open day casting but they decided to conduct the assessment after everyone said they were available all day. This is my third try & it was an emotional day for me. I didn't think I would be but the feeling I experienced today is hard describe.. with every round opening up that piece of paper to see 'Congratulations' was overwhelming... I had to walk it off & take DEEP breathes because I thought I was dreaming. Well guys.. I best get back to it. I've got an online test to finish - wish me luck!
And good luck to everyone else tomorrow & globally
Jonjonsyd: Best of luck to you to my friend - I have my fingers & toes crossed

Bris Final Interview
Hi 
Did anyone attend the brisbane open day on the 24th Nov? I got through to the final interview and just waiting for a reply!!
I had to redo my photos and they told me to drop them off at their hotel before they left for Dubai and i'm hoping that the reception passed it on.
Should i call the office in dubai to confirm? Would they tell me if they didnt receive them?
Good luck to anyone else that has participated in the Aus intakes!

EK -DOJ has been moved
Hi. I was set to leave on the 18th of January but I just received an e-mail informing me that my DOJ has been moved to February 22nd. But I had received my e-mail "advice to resign" and final approval". Everything's set. But what does this mean? For those who had experienced this, please let me know
I'm kinda paranoid and thinking that they're having second thoughts on hiring me...

I received a similar email but then 5 minutes later, EK sent me another email and said that it was an automated email which should have not been sent out and that my joining date is still 11th January. I guess if you did not receive a second email from them, then your DOJ has really been moved to February. It's not them having second thoughts on hiring you, its probably cause they have too many people and cannot accommodate everyone on the courses (their fault as they should have done their calculations better). Your letter of resignation still stands, it just means your date of joining has been pushed back. To clarify, I would advise you to ring them.

hey everyone. Congrats to all of you who are currently flying. I hope to join you all someday soon! Does anyone know when Emirates plans to come back over to Canada? My application is complete, so now, I'm assuming an invitation will get sent out once they set a date?

Once you send your application, they will send you an automated email to acknowledge that they have received your application. There does not seem to be an Assessment or Open Days being held in Canada at the mo, neither in January. It's a case of waiting. I hear that there will be more destinations added to the EK network next year in North America & Canada. EK may well recruit more from there then...
Good Luck
