Dubai CV Drop
I wonder if many people turned up at the CV Drop in Dubai? If anyone here went, would they be able to give some pointers as to how the day progressed? Many thanks!

~Want to fly - From memory I think they prefer photo's with a white background. Maybe try and take them in front of a white wall or door!
I'm thinking about flying up to BNE on Wed but I'm still yet to make my mind up.
~Jaye - I heard that 1000 people turned up to the DXB CV drop and they had to get the police to clear the crowd. Apparently one of the recruiters was trying to get in to help and they told her to get the the back of the line LOL!
I guess they wouldn't be receiving a phone call!

Callmachine!
Hi Callmachine!
Thanks for your speedy reply. damn I got a free photoshoot and thought I might as well as get the emirates one done in case if I decide to go to one of the AD but completely forgot they prefer a white background! ah well, my sister's a graphic designer im pretty sure she can change the blue background to a white one.
If you are coming to the BNE for the open day, then I wish you the very best! I however cannot attend until January next because of the rule :-(
Anyway, hope to hear from you soon and good luck!
God bless

Tips for ODs
Now that EK has started recruitment in earnest in many places around the globe, perhaps there are current crew who are willing to share tips on how to 'stand out' among the hundreds of applicants during Open Days? Any general tips would be appreciated too, let's get the discussion rolling!

I dont think anyone knows tbh, its been asked a few times before and the general opinion is that nobody knows what they are looking for because everyone has a different experience. I mean when I first started seriously looking into Emirates I read every single post in this thread (it took a good week haha!) and some people were saying "the best advice is not to be too loud because the overbearing, obnoxious ones who talk too much never get through", the next person says "OMG I cant believe I didnt get through when a girl in my group who wouldnt let anyone get a word in edgeways made it!!". Its a bit of a mystery. A lot of it must just be down to pure luck and charisma.

Assessment Days
I'd just like to get my two cent's worth with regards to assessment days tips and advice... I feel it's very easy to stand out for the WRONG reasons. For example: Inappropriate dress, far too much make-up, poor posture, using slang. I was shocked by how many people turned up (this goes for ODs and ADs) in short skirts, open-toed shoes, no jacket, revealing/tight tops, no stockings, loads of jewellery, even sunglasses on their heads. It's one day out of your life and it won't kill you to play it safe and conservative. Follow the dress code to the letter and show you can follow basic instructions. Wear a full suit with a buttoned up jacket, collared shirt and hair up and away from the face and don't pile the slap on like there's no tomorrow. A soft, natural look will get you further than a drag-queen look (something to hide??). And during group exercises, look interested in what other people are saying, try keep a good straight posture and say lots of supportive things like, "good idea" or "just to come back to something (someone's name) said earlier..."
Its not rocket science but I know its a real bug-bear of recruiters when people show up expecting to sail through and haven't made the slightest effort to follow dress-code instructions or try and listen to what others are saying.
That's just my opinion anyway, I know plenty slip thorugh the net but a surefire way of getting into a recruiters good books is to show you're prepared, smart and professional - and that goes a very long way indeed.

Emirates and Relationships
I really want to be Cabin Crew with Emirates airlines. I am in a committed relationship and since Dubai is a muslim country I would like to know if my boyfriend will be able to come visit me. Because I doubt he would not be able to come in the shared accomodation.
Also, if we get married, how will emirates arrange living arrangements because someone told me, they would give you an allowance. Is the allowance good or would I be struggling financially?
