hi!! i was kinda in the same situation. All the people that werent getting the job got the email really quick . and then 2 others had to call 2 weeks afrer that. I got a call a week after that to re do my pictures and they told me that all files go to dubai and get processed they might have looked at the other 2 girls files and decided the pics were good quickly but i had to re do mine 5 times nad the other 2 girls who got their yes are you there now and i'm not going til novembver so i think the fact that you know some ppl have had their no's already that means that your file has been passed over and they will get to you and i would def say that s it a really good thing you havent heard . Out of 55 ppl that attended when i went all the no's had the no on the same day so no news is good news . i'm sorry i cant really give you any more info but no one can really know what goes on hehe good luck hope to see you out there.

@laguna,

Were you supposed to undergo a visual test during your final???? Not an eye examination it was kinda test to fullfil several pictures! Just logical things! In my round in 2006 all who were supposed to do this were called for further progress and all who did not have to do it failed!! I don`t know how it is handeled in other countries but I had my interview in Germany and I heared also from a girl fom Tokyo that she also had to do this test and she was successful! well don`t give up you will know soon:-) good luck honey:) It is not the psychometric testing, something really strange!!!!!!

12-oct Team
 
heyyy NADx
you've been away for a while !

Am just bored again but excited at the same time and a bit disappointed as you must have read what i wrote earlier about the accomodation.

I mean till i might be completely wrong to be disappointed but well we'll see. I heard its like some new apartments we're going into and which is far off but nearer to the airport.

Dunno got to be there to find out.

Bit confused as well, what to bring and what not. I got nothing extra am just wondering how to make use of the xtra 30Kgs !!!

We got to make a list of all of us joining on the 12-oct and eventually a PPRUNE get together.

I also heard couple of first days are quite hectic and tiring, so be prepared.

:eeek:
Im Oct 12 too as I mentioned earlier.
Coincidence or what?

Im flying from Manchester Int'l.


Yep, we need to have a Pprune get together party...

SkyHighFlyGal also 12th!!!


Can't wait...d'ya reckon we're in same batch or...?

Read Tuberosee's or rxlc's message on her first couple of days in Dubai as a trainee. Click Here
Shes got all the low-down on the training, as she was in the same boat as us a few weeks/months ago.


So...good luck,
Regards,

Does anyone know why you need to have another medical once you arrive in Dubai when you got all that done in your home country?

Brazilian_boy 22nd Sep 2007 04:07

long waiting...
 
Hi everyone!!!

As I have read in almost all previous posts, I think people are feeling anxious to get their call just like me. I sincerelly wish to have my answer replyed, ´cause maybe it can help others in the same situation as me. I have passed through the group tests, and the whole stuff...so I went to the final interview, wich took about 1 hour, and after it, I was told that I should sent them in Dubai 6 passport size pics, my diplomas and certificates, as well as reference letter from my employer. so, in shorts the sequence was:

*open day
*assessment day
*final interview.

If she asked me to submit my certificates, it means that I can calm down, and wait for my call? she asked me 4 to 6 weeks. when will I be asked to submit my medical exams??

I need help! I´m going crazy!!! :sad:

Hello EkRavin. I read from your last post that you were talking about the accommodations and that the new recruits will be placed in the accommodations near the airport. Actually there is also a possibility that we will not be placed there since they are randomly distributing the new recruits. i have friends who are already there, they were from my assessment day and there are about 5 or 6 of them already, and all of them are placed in different bldgs.

i just hope i'll be placed in sheikh zayed rd. its a nice location coz its like the center of dubai. i'll see you guys soon! goodluck!

EmiratesCCMad 22nd Sep 2007 16:13

Hey
as you know, member rxlc just moved to Dubai. She got placed in a "desert2 like place, far from Skh. Zayed Road :{


I arrived to dubai on friday night and life here has been hectic..and is only the beginning.
Im living somewhere in the desert..somehow.
If u coming over get ready for some tiring days, lack of sleep, long hours driving. Actually im lucky coz is Ramadan..so the traffic s better.

My travel over here with emirates was awsome..i felt like a VIP. Emirates cabin crew were fantastic with me.
Once u arrive someone s waiting for u so u dont need to worry.

Saturday s a free day - meaning u dont go to college..but u have lots of things to do because the appartments r empty..u gotta go shopping..meet ur colleagues..etc.
Take lots of money with u! Dubai s expensive and u will need so many things.
If u can just bring stuff with u when u arrive s just great..but s better to have money n buy here upon necessities n recommendations.

Sunday was cool..a full day..lots of papers to fill in. I got the uniform.
Monday...u get already exhausted n some might feel homesick. I had only blood sickness..coz we had our blood tests n i hate that..my whole arm hurts right now.

umm...if u have any other worries, questions about the interview or anything else regarding ek..message me.
for the moment i do not have a net connection... but ive just discovered this net cafe..hihi
c u all here
good luck with the interview..do not stress too much..nobody s perfect!

Hey all..got dial up in my room..hihi Tomorrow i start the real course..till now has been only introductory: welfare, medicals, accomodation..meeting the staff..

Medicals: blood, urine, general check (back, ears, lungs, heart), vision, teeth, vaccinations. Blood s one day..the rest takes a whole new day. When u come to the clinic..take food with u. Is Ramadan..u cant eat outside, in public. Avoid Castro is extremely expensive and s the only place u can eat..so be prepared.

Accomodation: new building in the desert..everything s underconstruction around, is not far from the airport..which is good..but far from sheik zayed. im not bothered..got a huge hypermarket near, sahara mall..deira aint that far either.
Im sharing a 2 bedroom apt. My flat mate s in the same group with me..we r lucky! I dont like the thing that i dont have a bathroom in my room..have to cross the hall...while my mate has one..with a tube too..i got only the shower. The apt s big..huge living..kitchen..balcony. A/C not working properly ..but they said they ll fix it..so just waiting..in between freezing or turning it off.

Outside s still hot..32C right now n s 11.50 pm. V humid.

Today one girl asked to go home.. quite depressing. Is hard..but enjoyable so be prepared.
I just love it...http://www.cabincrew.com/ccnetwork/smileys/smiley1.gif

One of the guys who attended interview with me arrived to Dubai this week and was placed in the "21st Century Tower" and he absolutely loves it. Great location. Actually, quite a few of people in his batch (35 new hires) were placed in the same building. I am still waiting on the details though ;).

He also mentioned that EK took great care of him upon arrival to DXB.:D

Anyone else traveling on Sept 27th (besides Melissa and myself)?

Second and final warning - do not post in text speak. For many of the users of this BB English is not their first language. English translated into mobile phone is extrememly difficult for others to translate. Posting in text abbreviations is selfish and lazy and unfair to others.

From now on, posts containing text speak will be deleted without warning or further explanation.

Im getting really giddy now, only matter of days for me...

Its too exciting...I can't even go to sleep at night for last two days.
I just keep dreaming of getting of the escalators of DXB Intl Airport, proceeding to Immigration where I will see the Marhaba(tm) agent with a board with my name on it:}
Q.What times do you have to wake up in the morning for training?

EmiratesCCMad 23rd Sep 2007 16:41

Hey people,
I would just like to share something really nice with you, EK crew or not.
I come across the site*, owned by some lady called Annie. Basically her brother got Ek, and she explains literally
everything you need to know before applying - from recruitment day info to CV tips. Also handy checklists to the newly recruited like me, like what to take with you (docs) and more.
Please do check it, it's really good. Also, gives info on contract, what emails you get of ek,whats required of medicals. BASICALLY, EVERYTHING.

Click here or: http://annie8886.wordpress.com/category/career/

Please, I urge you all to visit it. Its really handy for everyone, and answers lots of questions. Also, give your feedback on this site so I can pass them on to Annie. Read all four posts on that site.

I really am amazed at the knowledge I have now gained.


*Note to Mod/Admins: I hope this is not classified as advertising as this is a non profit blog about info on Ek .

:ok:

P.S Why do I keep gettings email of EK with subject "DOJ: 12/10/07?"
I already know that.


FlyRules 23rd Sep 2007 23:47

Just got my visa, e-ticket and final briefing!!!!:D Leaving on sept 27th via JFK!!!!

EkRavin 24th Sep 2007 06:02

Relieved to hear about the accomodation = meaning we dont know where our luck might take us to.:)

Anyway congratulation:D:D:D to all of us and i think the only thing is left now to see each other and keep the friendship going on...:ok:
