ETIHAD interview questions
 
For all you guys going for interviews with Etihad, here are some questions you may want to ask.....

1) What are the per diem rates?
2) What is the annual payrise increment?
3) How much do we receive for housing? If I take cash, do I get the full amount or just a portion?
4) Where do we sit while on ID tickets? (space available)
5) At how many hours a month do we start to get overtime, and how much an hour do we get?
6) Is there loss of license insurance?
7) Are my home utilities paid for?
8) What are available days? And are they paid for?
9) Do you provide transport to and from work?
10) Do you get any extra pay for being called in on a day off?

More questions
 
Does my girlfriend/wife have to sleep with senior management so that I get and keep the job?

Etihad will rob u of every penny and any hint of humility that you may have, and that is before you hit Abu dhabi.

Can someone tell me why Etihad is looking for 67 pilots. How many do they operate. Is the 67 something new or just a interm aircraft.
Tks in advance

Say what?
 
Lethal, for your questions:

1. depends on what kind of girlfriend you have, my dear, some will sleep regardless of making you keep the job...

2. from mine and several other fellows own experience, we were decently and professionally treated at EY during the interview, and all the folks we met seems to be happy working there...so I΄m affraid your comments derives from an unpleasant rejection experience, sorry...


Lowns,

They need at least 250 drivers for the first 2006 semester only...heavy recruitment on going. Several birds arriving.

cayenne 23rd Dec 2005 02:12

Actually the answer to all the questions is NO, or NONE. So if any of that is important to you, make sure you are aware of their policy.

Oh Dear me!
 
Not meaning to disappoint you fullforward, history speaks for itself and not for me. Ask those who have worked there or before with this management team and you will find that coercing is part of their management style at the cost of your job.

So don't fib me about rejection, EY is not this wonder place you paint it and everyone knows it.

Perhaps you need to look closer at your girlfriend and regardless of how honourable she maybe when coerced to deliver at the cost of you losing your job and having to sustain all the trimmings of "unknown" pressure before hand.........You will realise then that money and package you went for is the same the will use to squeeze life out of your a@se.

Instead of gloating about rejection, I would actually be keeping an eye out for any action!

Jeep smiling!

hmmm
 
u know guys, some of us bag EY cause we have worked there, not cause we have been rejected..

god only knows how they got the management that they do

as i have said in previous forums, EY is a sad and pathetic fake copy of EK

they will always be around though cause they have the cash, however will never amount to anything than a 2nd class airline

no matter how many airline awards you can buy to win, they will always be trash guys sorry

Lethalfart 24th Dec 2005 04:37

So fullforward there you go.......

Need I say more, money grabbing can lead you some unknown paths sometimes, and perhaps this is the one you are currently taking.

So stop bragging about how respectfully you were treated, because that doesn't make up for the pimping that regularly takes place, the cases of employee abuse and intimidation etc....

Worse is dimwits like you walk around waving the flag with nothing but incompetency to cover their private parts and you talk to me of professionalism?

So before you make any judgement on my girlfriend/wife, I would consult yours who at this moment while you are on your way to the office is probably indulging in some "more chocolate"

So unless you consider this a normal occurence (Which would not surprise me, considering the nature and lack of self respect many of the money grabbers have) I find it appalling and discusting.

Even more so when the likes of you gloat on this site of how wonderfull it is knowing full well that it is not.

Fullforward? What are you on? Amphetamines? Or is someone tickling you in the crack? That smile of yours is surreal and soon it will go.

anyone know the crew
 
Etihad Airways flight makes emergency landing in capital
By Adel Arafah

24 December 2005



ABU DHABI — An Etihad Airways flight coming from Mumbai which ran out of fuel had to make an emergency landing at the Abu Dhabi International Airport (ADIA) yesterday morning. The landing was safe and there was no injury to the passengers and the crew.


According to details, at around 10am, the captain of the Etihad Airways aircraft reported to the Air Traffic Control Abu Dhabi that it had only one hour of fuel left and sought permission to make an emergency landing.

Soon after receiving the request, a state of emergency was declared at the airport, and Civil Defence Units from Bani Yas, Umm Al Nar, and Shahama were called in besides ambulances already stationed at the airport, and the Quick Intervention Units (QIU).

The teams made elaborate arrangements to handle any emergency situation.

The aircraft had to hover in the skies of Abu Dhabi for around an hour before emergency measures were taken to manage any untoward incident. At 11.03am, the aircraft finally made a safe landing.

Rumours
 
@ cayenne - are you disappointed? If you don`t like the UAE or perhaps EY, my advise: leave as fast as you can or never join. I think that most of my fellow collegues are very happy including myself. So please stop to speak out rumours that YOU can never proof. Thanks.

In flight refueling or EY airplanes are more fuel efficient than others?:hmm:

Hi Maserati
 
Are you afraid of the truth? What part of what I said is not true? All of it is fact. So maybe if you pulled your head out of management's a.. you would see that. I was suggesting that applicants who come for interviews might want to consider these facts when they make their decision. It is people like you, who are happy to get lied to, continually s..t upon and just sit back and take it that lets these companies get away with what they do. Maybe thats how things work in your third world country, but let the rest of us try to improve the conditions at these companies.

All those things I mentioned are things that we had and were taken away or things that were promised and have never happened. Etihad is an OK place to work. But changing a few things will make it a great place to work and one where the employees will want to stay and not be looking elsewhere.
(Korean, Singapore, Asiana......) The exodus is about to begin!

MaseratiGhibli 26th Dec 2005 08:53

Afraid ?
 
@ cayenne
I am not either afraid of the truth or have my head in someone`s place. :cool: If it is necessary to change something, I am not against. However what else do you want to change in their condition? Are you flying for EY, if yes then tell me the facts. Back to your qustion from the top ... You want to have pick up service from home to the airport and return. Wonderfull ! Nobody down want this service .... Can you tell me why everybody wants to come down here? All of them know the conditions before, why do you want to change them after joining. The behaviour is always the same. It is the same with people who rent a luxery house next to the airport. First of all they enjoy the cheap rent and after 6 months of probation they start to complaign about the noise to push down further the rent or to fight against the airport. What a bull**** !!! :}

So tell me what else do you want from this company, besides tax free salary, free housing, loss of licence, private insurance, education allowance, furnishment allowance etc. So if you think in your country living and prospective carreer making is better. So what was your intention to come down here? Money? Airplanes? Carreer? Or what ? Please as I told you - leave as fast as you can if you don`t like UAE.

I fail to get your point, mate.
I came with straight FACTS, personnal experiences, not gossips or vague moaning.
What΄s your rank, do you work for EY? Do you have any straight FACTS to put here?
EY may be the worst airline to work for, but at the time me and other fellows went there the impression was very positive: from ground staff to flight attendants and flight deck,everyone seems to be enthusiatic and happy. The interview staff was friendly and professional.
It is possible they set up a cenario to us and contracted some artists, who knows?
But why this vague bashing?
You would do something usefull at this wonderful tool and to our community if you could present more elaborated data.
