You guys know your terms and conditions. You know your salary. You know your allowances. ALL BEFORE YOU SIGN A CONTRACT.
Icarus, what they don't say (at least didn't say...) during the interviewing process is the rest of the "local good news", i.e. how much housing is or the quality of the majority of the housing for choosing...", meaning that you'll have to stand in with at least 30% to get a good place to live in. How will you figure it out during an interview process if they don't tell you? At least the education allowance has gone up to acceptable figures which is a good step, however you still need a good HOME for you (alone) or you and your family where applicable :ugh:.
EY Recruitment Team (and others in the area), tell the truth please. Don't put you head in the sand and pretend it's all normal. Tell short-listed applicants what to expect once your training is over. Housing is a primary issue. I believe the rest of stuff is "black-on-white" and the "in-fighting" it's all part of any company with a minor variations (bitching:8 and back-stabbing:E). The other way is :oh:.

Hi guys, just an article in the local papers to ponder about costs in the UAE. Just sky rocketing! :\



Parents left 'with no option' over fee hike

By Sunita Menon and Siham Al Najami, Staff Reporters

Dubai: Parents say that they are left with no option but to look for schools that have an affordable fee structure.
Five private schools run by the Global Management Systems (Gems) - The Westminster School, The Winchester School, Cambridge International School, Dubai American School and the Modern School - will be bringing in a fee hike of 55 to 70 per cent from next year.
It will be done in two phases once in January 2007 and the next in September 2007.
Gulf News learnt on Tuesday that a verbal approval to go ahead with the fee revision was granted by the Ministry of Education.
"This type of system and monopoly does not work and should not be allowed by the Ministry of Education. It is unbelievable that schools are given the green light to hike their fees every year," said a parent.
Interestingly, the news of Gems receiving the approval has yet to filter down to the corridors of the Ministry of Education and the Dubai Education Zone and only a selected few top officials are aware of it, Gulf News heard .
Teachers at the schools concerned also complained that the fee hike had nothing to do with them receiving a salary increment.
Teachers who spoke to Gulf News said that their average basic salary stands at Dh2,000 and the annual hike they receive is between Dh70 to Dh90.

Well...whatever the politics and other factors involved...looks like our former leaders are up to their hineys in alligators...and unfairly so..think those at EY have a unique opportunity ahead...so as judge Roy Bean used to say...."give 'em a fair trial, then hang 'em" why dont you folks down there just sit back and watch what unfolds....what could it hurt??? You've been doing nothing but bitching about present conditions... change could be a positive thing....but nothing happens overnight...except bankruptcies and redundancies...dont see that happening there..:confused:

Info
 
Can anybody please can tell me how picky EY is for hiring? what is the average interview attendants and how many got the job? EK is 1 out of 8 and Qatar is 4 out of 5.

Wylee coyote 24th Dec 2006 05:43

I'd say chances are 30-50% you'll:* get a job

NG_Kaptain 24th Dec 2006 09:37

Jungle 1
 
Last two groups were three out of six made it and seven out of fifteen. Most failed the first day mainly in the tech exam and English language test.

priceless 24th Dec 2006 14:40

is the tech exam about a/c we fly or the school time ....

NG_Kaptain 24th Dec 2006 18:39

Priceless
 
No it's not type specific. More like basic ATP stuff and stuff from their route structure, although the fail rate is 50%..... Merry Christmas

CaptainProp 25th Dec 2006 16:07

So, is anybody willing to shed some light on the EY interview? There's gotto be someone who have been there or knows something right?

Merry Christmas everybody!

Interview with Ethiad Airways
 
Anyone can give me some informations concerning the Recruitment Process with Ethiad Airways? Email: [email protected]

jungle1 27th Dec 2006 17:03

Thanks
 
Thanks a lot for the info Kaptain. How hard can an english test can be? it may be non aeronautical english then... guess lots of grammar and weird words as well... anyway...I'll start reading the Bible or Shakespeare to be ready for the test...and then I'll apply for the job....

NG_Kaptain 27th Dec 2006 17:14

Its not that difficult, you just have to read the texts carefully before answering. Mainly it is insert the word in the blank and the words are printed in the exam so just select the correct word. Some are words that sound the same but are spelt differently and have different meanings.

Hi Kaptain, thanks for the tips........i am scheduled for an interview in Feb 07.

jungle1 28th Dec 2006 22:16

Thanks Kaptain
 
One last tip... what to expect from the simulator assesment? what are the maneuvers performed? and how long does it take?.... Happy new year to all....

NG_Kaptain 29th Dec 2006 02:04

Straight ahead til 1500' then visual circuit, on finals an engine failure or fire with a go around into IMC. Vectors onto an ILS, all raw data and use the bird. Break out at around 500 feet and land. Tolerance is one dot LOC or GS and never exceed 250kts (fly green dot). If you can, practice as much raw data using the bird that you can do before the assesment. They will email you the profile,learn it.
Good Luck

robert3791 29th Dec 2006 10:16

for which airline is this?

Appreciate any info regarding reference material for the tech quiz. Is it a three day program like Emirates ?

spierpoint jones 30th Dec 2006 17:42

Who is getting called?
 
I was wondering , the people being called in for interviews are you type rated in the aircraft Etihad operate? Or are non typed crew going to Abu Dhabi as well.
All the best....
jones :ok:

NG_Kaptain 30th Dec 2006 19:36

EY interviews
 
I've been told that EY's interview process is very similar to Emirates. I read the Emirates Pilot Interview by Capt XYZ,found it very helpful. A must read is Airline Pilot Interviews by Irv Jasinsk, that book did the most for me in preparing for the interview.

i'm not rated ......

NG_Kaptain 30th Dec 2006 20:43

They are interviewing non rated pilots. In my group some A320 pilots interviewed for 330 and 340 positions, the also interviewed 767 pilots and told them that they may be placed on the 330/340 or the 777.

Can someone give me a rough indication of the current rental rates in AED for a decent 2/3 bedroom apartment in Abu Dhabi City itself, or perhaps a house/villa just out of town (but not too far!!).

I'm considering options at the moment. Don't need a huge amount of space, but would be looking for something half-decent, with space for visiting family.

Interested in what you can get for around AED100,000 - 125,000 per annum.

Many thanks,

MO

Trashed Aviator 4th Jan 2007 16:49

Thats a laugh 125,000 is about half of what you need.
Dont come to the Me.....................you are warned.

Check your PM ,:)

Mike Oscar 4th Jan 2007 17:02

Trashed,

Thanks. I thought you could get something (reasonable 2 bed apartment?) for that kind of price.

I know prices are rising rapidly, but would be interested in specific examples of what kind of prices people are paying for something reasonable in (or close to) the city. 2-bedrooms fine, 3 would be a bonus.

Rgds,

My apartment is modern, in the middle of town, 2br with balcony, underground parking and it cost AED 96,000.

btw, kitchen and BR are quite large, it has a seperate dining room and free airconditioning, while diswasher, fridge, stove, washer and dryer are also included.

sec 3 4th Jan 2007 19:09

A few of the guys have moved their families 45min to an hour outside of the city and are paying about 90,000AED for a 4 bedroom villa, electricity and water included. It takes them about 25min to get to the airport. It's very quiet out there, some may even call it a little isolated, it just depends on what you like.:)

Mike Oscar 4th Jan 2007 20:25

Thanks both, really appreciate it. That's the kind of general info I was looking for, and able to get a reasonable idea of what you get for the same price by moving out of town.

I know prices rising rapidly so will add a percentage to your figures, but gives me some hope!
