Emirates Interview- Stewardess Wanna Be
 

Hi Everyone


I feel so ashamed going to Emirates interview where they pick all chineses in Malaysia. He interviewer from Malaysia half Singaporean. When u feel not right about the way the pick potential stewardess... SPEAK UP.

just out of curiosity, did anyone went down to dubai personally to submit their cv and get called for an interview, either in dubai or anywhere in the world? thought of getting my friend to submit on my behalf, and if i get called up an interview, i can purchase id90 tickets to travel to dubai for the interview.

Sundaybrunch,

I know someone who flew all the way to DXB from America, paid full fare, applied and got in. I`d say, go for it!

I bought ID90 tickets myself to attend an OD in another country as EK will never come to mine. I also got in.

Good Luck

FlyRules:ok:

thanks Flyrules!

i saw in emirates career page, they seem to have an assessment day in dubai every other week. so does anyone know how long it takes for them to arrange an interview for you after dropping off the cv, since i need at least 2 months ahead to apply for a ticket there. and is the whole interview procedure going to take 1 day?

I believe that it takes a couple of days, but then again, I'm not sure if they make any exeptions when people come from over seas, if I were you I would apply and if they invite me then I will ask all those questions, but some how I don't see it happening all in one day.

Sorry for not being much of a help here.

Good luck !!!! :ok:

hello Sayang, i went to my final interview in KUL in May, There were some malays/Indians. so pls don't misinterprete if you were not chosen. People were not chosen for many reasons. some unexplained. EK has more than 100 nationalities, very little space for race discrimination here if you like to join EK, so try again in 6 months. good luck, happy to help if you need any info

Lets Celebrate!!!!!

Congratulations!!!:) I also got the phone call and I'll be flying to Dubai on the 21st of September:)

Hey all,

I'd be keen to hear from anyone who is starting on October 12! PM me if you are...

SHFG :p

Dubai Open Houses
 

Can anyone inform me on how crowded (if so) the Dubai OPEN HOUSES get? I know that the ones in Australia get pretty busy, now does it get that busy in Dubai? Will it be easy to get noticed if I attend an open house in Dubai?

Forgive my ignorance, but what is and open house? :confused:

Hey Skyhigh, i'll be starting my training on the 11th of October? A day ahead of you. Does that mean were on different batches?

ikoysss
 

Hmmm... that's weird... i thought most people departed on a Thursday and then started the following friday? So for me I depart on 12th October, and am starting on the 18th I think ...

Hope we are training together! Would be nice to know someone :)

medicals?
 

would someone be kind enough to tell me how long is the waiting period before they email us the final approval?:) thanks:)

regarding flying out dates and training:

As I've mentioned before, not crew myself, but daughter is.

My daughter's been there 11 months now. When she started EK, she left on September 8th last year, a Friday, and started her training on the Sunday, Sep.10th. I'm sure people who are crew with them can give you better info but just thought I'd pass on what happened when my daughter joined. If there is anything that i can help with please feel free to ask.

Wishing you all the best for your future career with Emirates, and good luck to all who are waiting for calls.

having trouble with joiner form
 

I just received my medical/letter of employment email and I am trying to log in on the careers website to do the Joiners form on the selected applicants section, but the link there hasn't been working.. Anyone else having trouble there?

Also on my letter of employment/contract, my commencement date says the 28-Sep-2007 but the date of training on page 5 says commencing the 27-Sep-2007 - a day before my actual commencement... Obviously they've made a mistake there with dates right?? Cause my work colleagues contract says commencement 12 Oct with training start date of the 18th.. a few days afterwards....

I'm so overwhelmed with the amount of documents there are!!

Hey there,

I have a start date of 12th October as well. Am flying from BNE. Congrats on the job. Just organising my medicals and paperwork etc. and then will be all set.
