Angel less minimum TT but ...

lots more far east carriers lookinf for airbus guys....pay is really high for captains.
yes, and they don't need that high TT's used in middle east, but culturally more difficult obviously. Often you've to start as FO for a while (6 month or more) even if your position/contract is planned as a left hand seat officially. Cpt. sides are vigorously defended by native guys

That's what I can see off their website. It's showing my application as shortlisted but application closed.

Tried applying for the DEFO a380 for a friend but couldn't find it... Not sure why the new requirement...

Ek assessment

Good afternoon mates,

I failed my interview in the 2010 .
Do you think could I have any chance to get one more interview if I apply one more time .
I uptodated my previous position on the form in the career web page but the status ( failed) did not change for more than three years.
Any suggestion , please

I think to look somewhere different .....

Happy landings !

RjAgCR,

You don't make the Mins as you are not current. There are current Bus drivers everywhere at the moment.
Have you applied to EY? Probably quicker command there to now.

Assessment Day or Open Day?

Hello everyone! I would like to ask for your opinion. I am very interested in joining Emirates. I am from the Philippines. According to Emirate's website, the only open days available in Asia are in China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and India. But I am not qualified to join the said open days because they require certain language speakers (like Mandarin, Vietnamese speakers). 80% of the Open Day locations are in Europe, which is very impractical for me to attend.

The good thing is that there is an Assessment Day in Ho Chi Min, Vietnam next month and it did not specify that I should be a Vietnamese speaker, etc.

My problem is, is it advisable for me to register on the Vietnam Assessment Day? I have researched a lot and I have never heard someone who applied online and was invited to an assessment day right away. All of them joined an Open Day. Can someone assure me that the HR of Emirates will check my application online and I somehow have a chance that they will invite me to an Assessment Day?

Please help! It has been years since Emirates conducted an Open Day in my country and I cannot afford to waste another 6 months (if ever I get rejected) for an Open Day which always happen outside Asia. Thank you very much and I really appreciate all your help.

2 things, sweet cheeks.

1) You will have more luck on the hostie forum, mainly pilots here.

2) I don't think it will do you any good going to a foreign roadshow. If they wanted cabin crew from your country, they would have a roadshow there. Simple as that. Emirates try not to have too many of one nationality I think, and we have a lot from the Philippines...

Good luck

I recently applied and got put into a shortlist pool, is this normal? I was a bit surprised as I thought they were hiring as we speak so I half expected to get offered an interview. Does anyone know how long in average one has to wait in the pool? Thanks in advance.

I've been waiting 17 months as shortlisted before being called for an interview.

So, patience is the key...

Angel EK Road Show Gatwick Saturday 27th

---> visited the event at Gatwick last Saturday, interesting so far. 2 officals from EK: Capt. Martin Stephens and Mandy Kelly both are part of the recruiting staff. All applications are checked by Stephens and he outlined very clear, that if the requirements fit, you may be invited to the pre selection phase in Amsterdam very quick. Main focus and selective during PSP1 is the sim session, but pass rate for the capacity part (Compass) approx. more than 80%. If you‘ve got not the 3.000TT-Minimum but you‘re close to it, let‘s say 2.900, he‘d accept the application as well, as the crew demand at EK seems to be extremely high over the next years.

pity they still sticking to the over 30tonne rule though... You could have 10000hours as a PIC on CRJ's but be overlooked for someone who has 3000 tt on a boeing..
