Confirmation

Hey Charlie,

When I got the offer of employment email, I simply replied to say that I'd be accepting it - I didn't get a confirmation at this stage.

I sent along the signature page of the contract with my medical results 2 weeks later - I got a confirmation of this after 2 days.


Hope this helps and stop worrying, you'll be fine

to Rxlc

hello rxlc. congratulations to you! although im quite confused with what happened to you and i hope you dont mind explaining it better...i was wondering about the medical tests that u werent able to submit...u said u weren't able to submit them but still, u got ur tickets? so even if the medical requirements are incomplete, they can still issue applicants with tickets? i hope you can clear it out for me...thanks and congratulations to you and everyone again...

medicals

Over a month ago...I sent the files ek gave me, stamped n filled in by all my doctors... I didnt send the reports because they were in romanian (im romanian) and i thought it wouldnt be necessary (it costs quite a lot n i was broke after medicals, to translate and legalise at that time). In the email i attached the medicals, i told them to let me know if they needed anything else. I got a reply after 4 days saying they d look n tell me.
So i waited n waited...n waited... then i emailed-no answer; call-"ull get an email tomorrow morning"--> next morning 0 email. one week later (this sunday) i called again, same day they told me what to send (chest report, haemoglobin, hiv, pap test). Today ive got the translated reports (those from laboratory) signed n stamped... coming home ready to send everything... so mom s told me i got an envelop 30 mins ago. hehe thats the story, in detail

Expect the unexpected!

RX- I agree, the medicals are knackering and quite expensive- not if you have a few bob left in the bank!

Do you know your leave date?

Thanks

congratulations rxlc

wow thats great to hear rxlc! thanks for explaining it to me..as for me i have submitted my medical results about 3weeks ago and i still have not heard from emirates. m not THAT worried though since the results were okay as approved by the doctors. but its hard to feel really confident about it and i think everyone feels the same way especially when ur not doing anything but WAITING...hahaha! i hope i get it soon.

congratulations!

Thanks Steegily.I didn't think they would send me a reply when they got my email,but my parents are stressing me out telling me to send it again so thought I'd check on here before I did anything else.Can't wait to get my final offer so then my parents stop hassling me lol.

I heard that when flying, Emirates try not to put you on a flight to your home destination within your first 6 months.Does anyone know if this is true?Also,if it is,does this include to other destinations in your home country and not just your home airport?
Only ask because people keep asking me when I'll be home (Even though I've not even left yet!)

You'll get stacks of flights back to your home destination, especially if they require a specific language speaker for that route. if you're from the UK there is no chance that you could manage six months without visiting old Blighty at least once. If you bid for those flights you'llget more than you can handle.

In any case, most new crew get assigned leave within a couple of months of flying,and as they don't qualify for the discounted fares yet, they have to use their annual leave ticket, which is straight back to your home town (well, nearest international airport).

bad news..extremely confused

Yesterday i got the tickets by fedex with 14 sept on them. i sent after the required reports and today ive got 2 bomb emails: 1st stating that one report s missing (chest x-ray report). 2nd that BY MY REQUEST my travel date was changed n that 28 sept s the last time they change my travel date!
Im quite shocked!
As far as i know i didnt ask for any change on 21st aug, 31st aug or 14 sept. I spent my whole summer around the pc and now this.
About the reports..i asked them a month ago to tell me if everything s ok...no news..just that they d let me know. My doc said that the EKG n the xray file where s written that my heart n lung are ok..would be enough. More over, he signed all those files they sent me n there were lots of q to be filled in bout chest.
I cannot believe this s happening to me...
It wasnt necessary to have my date changed..i can get a report tomorrow morning.
What shall i do?

Medicals

A question for all... actually maybe just the female cabin crew! hehe When you arrive in Dubai and have to go through all the medicals again..... does Emirates conduct pap smears even for those who didn't have to have one on the initial medical?

Cheers!!
