Who is in charge of what??
 

I mean really... it is getting really difficult to tell who is in charge of what. No body seems to be in charge anymore. During HH days someone, whether bad or good- someone was there in charge. What is happening now? Does anyone know what our chart looks like?

LOL. You are so right. Nobody has an idea who is in-charge of what ? They all think they are in-charge of everyone. No changes, no new management, no pay increase. Nothing. Everyone is giving up !!!

Habib,

I think you mean waiting for guests to board!!!

masalam

Well, we r here .... more or less :hmm:

So, what is the latest thing with EY?
The latest thing is introduction of SFS (senior flight steward) which will be called Cabin Supervisor. It's still not active, but there r ongoing preparations. Also, new crew will work in Coral zone for at least 1 year, which is very similar to conditions in EK.

But the real questions is, will it be payed more? My personal opinion is: of course NOT :{
If that really happens, I really want to know what the management is thinking? I mean, how they can expect crew to be motivated and help this airline to develop?

Anybody heard of this new position?

Cabin Supervisor
 

Apparently they have selected 80 people to be put forward for it.
No one knows who they are though.
Will they be paid more? Well... considering a Cabin Manager earns the same (sometimes less) than Crew I seriously doubt it.:ugh:

As far as I know, the list includes names of senior crew who did not make it as cabin managers in the past, except a list of about 20 who actually made it earlier this year but their promotion has been on hold... and don't quote me for that:ouch:
See you all at PS birthday party :) Last booze event before Ramadan :) :) :)

I really wonder how did they select those 80 or "whatever the number is"? I wouldn't be surprised the selection was made according to an old way of getting positions in EY (who f..... who, and so on .... sad, but true)

Sometimes, ongoing mess in this company amuses me a lot .... :}

EY Website
 

interesting reading here about EY especially after i read a 4 to 5 page about EY on Airways Magazine. i also checked out the careers section of the EY website and it looks like it's been "updated" and will be operational on 01OCT06

Does this mean those applicants will have to reapply again after 01OCT06 or will the details still be in the EY system/database.

any info will be greatly appreciated.

greetings from SYD :ok:

from my exprience your data logged with EY should not have lost, just cos they are bringing new/updated site. The data logged via website is usualy stored in some sort of database so i would imgaine it to be safe. Having said that i cannot be certain and as EYtruth said if you want to be certain then check with EY direct.
good luck mate

Etihad Website

etihad
 

hi i telephoned ey this am and spoke to someone in hr re the same thing as i have appiled for a few jobs not c.c. but she did say that the new software and every thing was being transfered over but would take a couple of days.??? so no they have not lost all your info. hope this helps.

Hi Geetha!

Well, let me try to answer your questions :)

- if they r recruiting in your country, than they will call once when they decide to come. But, my advice to u, is, call them and see which dates they have available. Once u do that, they'll screen your CV and give u a call back the same day. That's how I did it.
- the telephone interview is easy, like a preliminary interview. They usually ask u about your previous experience, why u want to become CC and so on.
- now the tough question :{ Is it good company? There r lot of yes and no's. The company is still young, but with many internal management problems which reflect negativly on cabin crew. Almost every day we have some changes in service, training, etc. Some people r enjoying it some don't, it all depends what do u expect. But it's far away from being glamorous job! Fast promotion is possible in various fields, but with upcomong changes it's going to be more difficult. Check this site, section about Cabin Crew with Etihad topic. U can gain a lot of information. Send me a private message and I'll give u another site on which u can also find a lot of info on EY.
- Salary. Keep in mind we do not have allowances like EK or QR. That makes it difficult sometimes, as u end up spending your own money on layovers, and some of those layovers can be quite expensive.
Your basic salary is 3020 AED. Per duty day u get 210 AED. U usually have 20-22 duty days which gives u salary at the end of the month in range: 7220 - 7640 AED. Sometimes u will have even 24 duty days, but it doesn't happen very often. Accomodation is provided. Recently they changed the basic salary to 2500 AED for initial 6 months. I don't know how it will be with new people coming, as we expect some huge and serious changes in management. Recent history shows EY is very talented to give u nice stories about salary on assesment, and once u come, they change it completely.

Hope I answered your questions! :ok:

Hi, Geetha

EYtruth covered it all. Do you homework and think before you just get happy and go for it. Check all airlines in the region and make the best selection for yourself.

EYtruth & skyhigh72:

thanks for ur reply. i appreciate it.:)
no allowance and less salary seems to be verry bad... i need to really think abt it.
u say that the initial six months salary is just 2500 Dhs. but does it really get changed to 3020 after ur 6 months? ( i dnt knw y, but i 'm a bit doubtful abt this after all that i heard abt etihad!)

i hope the new management does something gud... orelse i cant see where the company is heading to in a few years frm nw.

lets all hope for the best!:ok:

GOD BLESS!

Well Geetha,

This basic salary of 2500 AED was recently introduced, the rest of us were lucky to start with 3020 AED. I don't know if it gets to 3020 AED after 6 months, will try to find some of those crew and let u know.

Like SkyHigh72 said, think very carefully about joining this airline.

:ok:

etihad
 

well lets hope when the clean out is started, maybe they can start with the clowns that work there web site.
even now its been revamped, you try to log onto the jobs site and its nearly down, more so on a weekend a local weekend thurs / fri. when / if you are lucky to log on, if you were to leave a message for some one even now i have 4 messages this year and no one has repiled.
yes ey has a lot going for it but it needs badly a good clean out and new people how know what they are doing.

coffindodger:

i completely agree wit u. even i faced some prob while trying to browse my application online. they need to sort out things starting wit their website!

whats going on wit their website?
 

my jobs applied for section shows 0 (when i've recently applied for the post of cabin crew) and almost half my profile info is missing or should i say vanished in thin air! GOD... its so frustrating....! this is the third time i'm updating it!!!

did anyone else face this prob or is it that i'm just plain unlucky!!:confused: :(

etihad
 

hi please your recent postings a couple of days ago, dont worry so they say yeaaaaaaaaaa righttttttttttttttttttttt

any good news for cabin crew???:confused:

Re Website
 

Just a Heads Up folks, my info is that the career website was hit by a virus and that most of the data was lost, so you might want to consider resubmitting that C.V. Ma Salama

EY Website Careers Section
 

hey yo'all - well it seems the Careers section is operational.

any info whether EY's done interviews in Australia before (like after they do the telephone interview and stuff)

also are there already a few Aussies sporting the smart looking EY uniforms?

ey web site
 

hey after just logging on to my work space within the site i see all my past applications for jobs have all been delated and also all my info. now when i tele them about 6 weeks ago just after the new look web site was launched i was told by some divvy in hr do not worry all your info will be transfered over in time, but hey not to be it looks like i have to fill every thing all over again !!! or do i???? any info please thanks!!!!!!!

Trousers?
 

Hi! Im curious... are Etihad's female CCs allowed to wear trousers as part of their uniform? :cool:

Yeah, you will get trousers but it's only for your Jeddah n Riyadh flights. Most of the time you will be in skirts. :p

ey touring dates
 

i see on there web site they are touring 29 countries as from dec 06 and march 07
so ey comming to a country near you maybe soon?????
have a look.its a invite only to these open days.

2 gossips ;-)
 

Ok guys, here's what I've heard, so let me know if u know this:

1. There was an assesment day in AUH recently, and they had to cancell the interview as not enough people showed up! :}
I was shocked when I heard this, as this happened in AUH where many people have extremly low salaries! So, I guess, bad news about EY did spread among people much faster than certain people in EY expected. I really wonder how will it be in Europe :ugh: But no doubt and no offense, interviews will be a huge sucess in Asia :sad:

2. New crew building No.11 is everything but not new. It's an ex-gulf air crew building. Apparently, it's in quite bad condition, used a lot, and quite a few crew refused to move in. Any info on this?

Etihad Airways
 

G'Day everyone,
Last Sunday Ey held their recruitement campaign in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and out of 200 candidates 36 got through. before this i never thought of doing some research about EY but after i got thru till final stage, im sort of curious to know more bout it.i feel a bit frustrated when i heard all the bad things about EY. is it true? i have a few question to ask and hope someone would willing to help.

1) Accomodation

-do we get to choose our mates and is the place nice and well equiped with basic things(aircond,washing machine,beds,closet etc)

-do they provide any gym facilities?

2)Salary

-how much is the average salary can u get per month and how much do u managed to save?

-during layovers, is the money given in the country's currency or in Dhs.

-Does any1 know the latest salary scale?

3)Does EY have probation period?

that's all...

I am still waiting for them to call me... and have to wait for 2 weeks to know wether im succesfull or not...


regards,
B

Nckbella,

Yes, u can choose a roommate. But that's only when they give u permanent accomodation.
During temporary accomodation if u have severe problems with other roomies in your flat, they might move u somewhere else.

Each and every flat has basic facilities, but not all the buildings have gym. If they have gym, most of the time they're in quite bad condition, so 90% of the crew go to real fitness clubs and pay.

There r not enough crew buildings, so most probably u will be put in hotel for a certain period of time. Some hotels r nice, some r bad.

My advice to u is: think very carefully before joining this airline. This company has many inner problems, and doesn't treat crew very nice unlike EK.

Can't 'apply online'.
 

Hey Everyone,

I just had a look on the Etihad career website and I'm either blind or the site doesn't have an online application link?

The website states that an assessment day will be held in Australia soon so I would like to submit my application to the airline online in order to get an invite.

I registered myself assuming that, that may lead me to the 'apply online' link but it hasn't.

Could someone tell me if I am missing the obvious?

Thanks :)

Hi again,

I just figured it out (how to apply online).....I was missing the obvious :ugh:

Good for you girl!!
 

Hi nckbella!

I was there on sunday too! :) Donno if I know which one you are though. I got 'eliminated' in the first round most probably because of my age and inexperience. :ugh: Anyway... Im so glad you made it through though! Good luck and happy researching. Ive read all posts about etihad (mostly bad) and still gave it a try anyway. So follow your instincts and listen to your heart. Good luck once again! :ok:

Sue

Were you invited for the interview by etihad airways or was it arranged with co-ordination with inter excel.
was there any male applicants showed up during the assessment day ??

Thank you and good luck

Hi! I sent my resume to Interexcel who in turn decided if I could or couldnt go to the assessment by Etihad. And I did not see any guys at all on that Sunday. :uhoh: Hope these answer your questions. :ok:
