I have submitted my online application but dont have any rotary/military jet time. It says then that my application is only 84% complete.. does that matter?

I meet all the other requirements, 4000+ / 30ton etc

Transport Jock, I seem to recall this came up before, and the answer then was that you cannot leave those fields blank (as one would expect) but rather you have to enter the number of hours that you have in that catergory i.e. "0".

Please let us know if this helps.

G'day Transport Jock, my application was also at 84% when submitted for the reasons you stated. I have an interview coming up shortly. As long as you got the 'Thank you for your recent application seeking employment with Emirates' email I think you're good.

kewl, thanks for the replies. I will wait for the invite then! ;-)

Whats the top limit of BMI ( body mass index) for the medical pre joining? Not that I'm bothered but Mrs Tightseat seems to think I should find out. Cheers.

30.....................................

Cheers WK, some room left for beer and crisps then!

Yeah... I thought that once upon a time:\:8

I thought it was 25 pre- and 30 post joining?

I've joined with a BMI of 29.9:D

EK lists their BMI requirements as 18 to 25, but up to 30 as long as certain measurements are not exceeded(or something to that effect).

Shortlisted
 

I have been "Shortlisted" for a month. Thank you all for the info on this thread. Anyone else being invited for the selection?

Interview emails for March are going out. From what I've seen they tend to send them out about 1.5-2 mnths in advance.

@Australianguy: EK seems fine to start you on the whole process as long as you are within 500 hours of the 2500 jet.

Amsterdam preselection
 

I hear EK are holding preselections in Amsterdam soon.
Anybody got any info ? I'm particularly interested in the type of sim they are using.
Could be useful to do a bit of prep.
Cheers,
btg

How much time to you actually need on a aircraft heavier than 30ton? At the roadshow they said just 1 hour is fine, but now i hear u need 2-300 hours?

At least in Europe they are using old style 737-400 sim at BA trainin center at Cranebank, London Heathrow.

Thanks GShocker, I appreciate the info.

Well said! This Aussie wannabe sounds like a screw-ball:rolleyes::rolleyes:

I seem to remember there being LOADS of aussies in the UK in the '90s in flying positions that the unemployed Brits should have had... What goes around:D

Got a few friends who will be out of a job soon and were wondering how long between applying and getting called to an interview assuming one was well-qualified?

Ok. I know some of you guys stateside are illiterate, but to get Knight without the K when it's there in front of your face is just stupid:eek::ugh::E

As for a pony... Sorry chum, it'd be too small:rolleyes::rolleyes:

I can think of many Brits with right of abode in Oz who can't get jobs 'cos of local protectionism!!!

hi,

does anyone know where the a330 type ratings are done? i've been told that's probably what i'll be going onto.

also, are there many people being put directly onto a380? i've heard of a couple, not sure if that's just a rumour though.

many thanks,

b bear

atl sim in march
 

I just got my email confirmation from EK for my sim session in March in ATL. Unfortunately my schedule won't let me do PSP1. Besides the sim profile on page 144 (that took sometime to find seesshhh!) any other tips, profiles, websites (the one on page 145 is awesome) that any one can offer, or for those who have already accomplished the sim, is that profile still being used? PM me if you want. Thanks in advance, looking forward to the opportunity.

Cheers.

Awaiting for the call . . .
 

Hello guys. I am in shortlist from the day after applying, 2nd December, but no call so far. I meet all the requirements with 5500h jet over 50tons and 32 yo. Anyone else in the same weird wait? :confused:
