hi everybody.
i want to apply for the scheme too.
maybe someone can answer the following questions. did u attach your school diploma to ur application? my school diploma isnt in english (its in german). do u think that I should let it be translated or isnt it necessary?
and how is the structure of an english curriculum vitae? do I have to mention in it why I want to become a pilot and etc? Or just only biographic data?
Thx in advance
Take.off
P.s: sorry for my english!

the max. requirement they want is nothing above a PPL. as cirus stated hes a first officer for some airline + his resignation to present us the email, therefore i highly doubt the reliability of his info.
as far as i know, there is nothing, 100% nothing at the moment accoding to our buddies in the 'middle east' forum.
lets just wait and try not let anything stir up the feeling inside yourself.
peace

homonster, i would think again before calling cirrus an unremmitting falsifier of fact...
i tend to believe him, why wouldnt etihad shortlist him? If i were an airline, I would CERTAINLY prefer someone with the flying skills and re-train them to the companys standard operating procedures.
Getting someone fresh with no flight experience is ALWAYS a risk, when I was doing my PPL, I knew a guy who did over 70 hours and never went solo
! some people just arent meant to fly....
As for his resignation to submit the email? its his decision, personally if I were shorlisted for anything it wouldnt be the best Idea to submit confidential information between you and the company on the internet which it would have clearly stated :
CONFIDENTIALITY / DISCLAIMER NOTICE : This e-mail and any attachments may contain confidential and privileged information. If you are not the intended recipient, please notify the sender immediately by return e-mail, delete this e-mail and destroy any copies. Any dissemination or use of this information by a person other than the intended recipient is unauthorized and may be illegal. Etihad airways or its employees are not responsible for any auto-generated spurious messages that you may receive from Etihad email addresses. Etihad Airways
Lets all be PATIENT, im sure we'll here from etihad in a month or two....

how many vacancies are there
Do you know if there are only 12 vacancies?, I've just applied yesterday and I was number 808, statistically talking the chances to be there are less than 1%.
Does anybody knows how many aircraft will Etihad recive during the next year?
luck to everyone here !
Just another question for those whose applications are shtlisted, what languages do you speak?

Check your Application Status
Hi...please check your application status in your Etihad Careers Account...at first it stated "Applied", but now...it states "Under Review"...they are reviewing the applications at this stage.
NOTE: They didn't send me an email informing me that my application is under review (you have to log in)...hope they shortlist my application...& urs' (ALL), I'll keep you informed for any updates.

Malirm,
Are you a UAE National? When did you apply?
I've just checked my status and it's still displays "Applied" and I applied around about a month ago.
As I've read in a previous post I'm pretty certain Etihad are giving high priority to those who have family already working for Etihad and then those who live in the UAE and then foreign applications.
C'est La Vie.

Well I assume our friend might be from UAE nationals, as his location also displays that and he might have applied for the national scheme and they have started reviewing the national scheme one, afterward which comes the global one. (you see how we are convincing ourselves, what to do? )
and CruiseC, if they give priority to those you have already mentioned then there is no place for us, as there are only 12 vacancies. Anhaanh!But they had said they will have three intakes through out the year, so that means 36 total or 12/3 means 4 each intake. what do you think?

I am not a UAE national, but born & living in the UAE, I'm from a Middle-Eastern Country (between Turkey & Lebanon)...I've applied on the 20th of March and I don't know anybody in Etihad Airways (why should I join you guys if I know the results of my application?), I'm a student at Emirates Aviation College (Dubai) enrolled in the Higher National Diploma in Aerospace Engineering, worked on A330-200s...etc. as a part of my On Job Training & thats what they liked about my CV...so they are reviewing it, trust me they would preffer a European Passport than a Middle-Eastern this is because you don't need a lots of Visa processing time & (as I can see from my side) you don't have any family responsibilities/strong connections as a normal middle eastern employee does.
GOOD LUCK...just calm down...I might not get it

How do I Work at 19 Years Old?
To antes56
Thats sooo easy to work as a student engineer, specially if the college is certified by the GCAA and is owned by the airline & the course includes 3 months of On Job Training (Not only at Emirates Airlines (you have the choice), but also in Atlas Air, Air Arabia & Etihad [as an employee of Abu Dhabi Int'l Airport, where Etihad make the maintenace there as Etihad don't have their own Engineering Section [it is the flag carrier that uses the government owned Airports all over the UAE])...we are considered as CHEAP staff at this stage, where they don't pay me when working. Moreover I get assigned to do specific tasks under the supervision of well experienced & licensed engineers (TYPE RATED)...and get assigned for things that I had studied about in the college and applied (workshop sessions) and achieved a mark over 85% + attending the subject's teacher daily interview (with the trainees where he is free to ask me about the subject face to face.
& by the way...I'm 19 years & 6 months old...6 months differ in such a field.
Please open the link below & view the info about the College, but please lets stick to our discussion (Etihad Cadet Pilot) not me!!!:

Like he said it was part of his on job training. Seems some people want to shoot people down as soon as they get any info from etihad.
There really is no point speculating until people start to receive offers for interviews or rejections. As Malirm said he applied early and his application has only now been reviewed I would think that we are all in for a very long wait!
Anyway, the more posts there are in this thread the lower our chances of getting onto the course are

obviously your not through to phase 2 of this global cadet programme since the maximum age is 26 and infact not even the emirati national programme since the maximum age is 30 and it says below your user name that you are 32.
Fact is i am in the target age and i got an e-mail yesterday, ah well haters..

No, now it seems that they have started shortlisting, but do they do the shortlising one by one and inform them or they shortlist the whole and inform them all together.
