Sorry to hear about your interview Dejvu... and sorry Blue Cheese, I didn't come back to you when you wrote to me in October (I was overseas)...
Emirates is a hard one to crack! Ask Nickmelb!
I know the girl you are talking about (Rhonda), she was in charge of the Sydney recruitment as well. Everything you have done sounds familiar, except for the English test, since in Oz this is not an issue...
Dejvu, your last post leaves me quite speechless... I have been to 7 interviews so far, I am 31, I speak 3 languages fluently, have 15 years work experience in several fields, including customer service, recreational sport, import-export... I've been living in resorts overseas for quite a while... and I STILL I consider myself a PUPPY when it comes to face an airline interview... The people you are calling "b..ch" and describing as unfair or unprofessional have YEARS of experience in flying, training and selecting their cabin crew! I however noticed from your post that you were never hit on the head with a modesty stick, where you??
Good luck for your future interviews. Maybe leave Emirates in another basket for 6 months and study the other eggs for a while...
Cheers!

Floaty,
It is ok... no sweat about it. Although I didnt make it thru the final round, I guess I was doing ok... better than what i expected, so I am going to stay positive and try again in 6 months. I just hope they come down to KL by then.
Were you a cabin crew before? I applied for SQ 3 times before but I didnt get it.
You seems to be quite knowledgeable about airline. I was wondering if you know any other airline that take ASian? From what I found ut on the website, not much choice for us Asian. I would like to get a feedback from you. Thanks.

hey blue cheese
in fact we do have some advantages
as long as we speak asian languages..
u have to know CHINA is a great market and lots of airlines want to get into this market
but the point is..maybe there are some other airlines hiring asian crew but they need to be the local resident..u get my point ,right?
for example, Air New Zealand is dying for chinese speaking cabin crew but then u have to be the resident there, holding a valid passport...also Qantas and Air Canada....just that we ;ve got no luck in certain passport rules...
or anyone knows more about this "passport" thing?
