I was told at the roadshow that they will absolutely NOT hire someone into an LAE position unless they have at least one of those endorsements. However; you could be hired into a "technician" position, and then be trained for one of the appropriate types. The trick is, apply for the position that you are already qualified for. If you don't have one of the types that Emirates operates, you can't immeadiately be a LAE.

Some tips for flight crew

Today I was asked by 777-300ER crew to do a WXR L ground test due to intermittent graphic faulty during flight. Never do it on the ramp please. Somebody won't have baby anymore. Or you burn yourself if refueling in process.
If cabin crew report to you that water tank QTY decrease quickly, pull the handle right onthe top of L2 door inside of a small square access panel. you will save half of water. The problem caused by somebody forget to close the LAV water drain vlv. Normally this would happen on a longhaul flight.

Have a nice flight.

Isn't the purpose of ground tests to be done on...ground. no such limitation you stated is in the FCOM
Elaborate please.

You don't need to shout. WX radar testing (test mode) is done by flight deck or maintenance teams as they see fit and necessary and if there is an AMM limitation on not doing it on the ramp I would like to know why and also the reference chapter of such limit.
