Wink Emirates Interview preparation

I have an interview with Emirates in a month. Besides being yourself (open and honest), does anyone have any advice how to approach studying and preparing? Did you get an acceptance letter? What was your level of experience? Me: CRJ Captain, 1800 command jet, 2400 second-in-command, 6200 Total. Thanks for your input!

Just like anyplace else, be ready to tell stories about things that have happened out on the line. I enjoyed the interview when I went. They tell you yes or no by email.
Good Luck!

Best of Luck to all!

Best of luck to all those attending upcoming interviews with EK.

The Darkness, guess I'll probably see you in Dubai on the 31st March-3rd April.

Cheers & Best Wishes,

OK, need study material

Hi guys. I really need some material to study. For now, I'm reading some material that was used for Cathay interview. Some technical questions from Handling the Big Jets. I need more substantive info, please. I'll relay my experience after everything is finished, but I would like it to be a positive outcome, so please, furnish more study material!

Don,

If you are studying the cathy prep stuff you are way way over preparing for the interview. The tech quiz is basic stuff, ie think what temp may visible moisture cause ice..etc. Not only that you can usually make it a group exercise.

Just come and be prepared to talk about your career giving examples of various leadership/crm/customer service qualities you've displayed in the past. Just sit back and do what pilot's do best, tell stories about yourself and you'll do fine.

Don't sweat tons of studying, i'm not the sharpest tool in the shed and i had no issues at all with minimal prep. Just come and enjoy the trip, meet some new people and take a look around EK and Dubai.
