Please let as try as much as possible to use proper English and not to shorten words (as though we are writing Short text messages in our phones)
Otherwise, good luck in all your en devours and God bless you all!!

invitations
hey guys,
i am not sure what all this invitations talk for qatar airways is about. in south africa, all you have to do is show up in your business attire with your cv and 2 photographs at the open day as it is advertised in the newspaper and on their website.
i unfortunately did not make it past the open day as they were looking for skinny white girls (a friend of mine told me-she went to the 2nd round).
here's hoping they might be looking for a bit more ethnicity next time...
forever the optimist...

pointers
oh Mari, it is also hard to get into qatar that is why you have to pull all the right stops. here is some advice i got from the internet about things you should do that nobody will tell you.
if you have a gap tooth (diastema) that is me, it will be a good idea to get it fixed, if your teeth are anything but white you should get them whitened
, if you have marks on your arms and legs you should use a conceler to cover the marks, if you can afford professional make up get it (ranges between ksh250 to ksh1500) depending on where you go. smile in the photos that you submit (smile with your eyes).
Personally i intend to do all these things and much more if i can afford it.
by the way, the deadline for Emirates application is on 31st of March, so hurry..
Hope this time we all make it..

Ruguru, Akoti19,q23muts
I know its quite frustrating to eagerly anticipate for something and then it never happens...am sorry for all of us that were not called. I would also take this opportunity to to encourage guys to apply for emirates...they always tend to call so many people for the interview, so still, its a tough one but if you go through the pprune forum...you don't need to panic. I went for the EK interviews last year but the only advice i have for anyone intending to go... DON'T FEEL OR LOOK OVERCONFIDENT.....am telling you...the interviewers will easily tell when you are.
At the moment..am waiting for my 6months to end then i apply again... don't feel so sad about the qatar interview...I believe God has something better in store for ya all.
All the best as you apply for the emirates interviews.
@MARI: What is the difference between Global Assessment Day and Global Open Day?

Girls...by now you should know the difference between an Open Day and an Assessment Day!!!
akoti19 if only invited candidates were interviewed then that was an Assessmant Day.
Ruguru you always have to make the best of what you have, I don't think the gap in your teeth makes a great difference but if it makes you feel more confident then have it fixed if you can but of course your teeth need to be white, of course you need to have well applied make up, how you would get that done professionally when the OD's and AD's start so early in the morning I don't know.
Smile with your eyes?? Yes of course as a sullen face won't get you through the door......these aren't things that nobody will tell you, these are obvious things.
The tip that was given to me when I first started out on this road when I went for my first airline interview years ago was to think like cabin crew and behave like cabin crew from the minute you walk through the door and not to let that drop even when you go to the bathroom or chat to other applicants when you're having a coffee, the recruitment team are not always the ones you are expecting to be watching you........also I can assure you that it is much more difficult to get into Emirates than Qatar Airways they are leagues apart!!!!!
However, that doesn't mean you can't do it, you have to apply yourself, read everything you can lay your hands on pertaining to this subject, practise your make up and your hair, make sure your grooming is totally immaculate on the day, that your nails are perfect, your jewellery understated, your shoes shining, walk with your head held high, with confidence, all this is the first step because without it you needn't worry what the questions or the tests are, you won't get past the C.V drop off.
Good luck.

You never know
I meant for the photos, you can get good makeup done. Anyway goodluck people and by the way you can never know what they are looking, my cousin is with qatar and she is not thin but she is very beautiful. You can never know with these airlines they may like you or not..

Hello everyone! It's my first time posting here, although I always use this forum to look at the commentaries and gather some information.... I just finished my third day of interviews yesterday in Barcelona, so now all I'm doing is waiting for the reply. I am feeling pretty positive about it, and I am already looking at places where I could do my medicals. Does anyone have any recommendations in Barcelona? And what are the costs? I am currently not working, so I'm very low on money....
Anyway, wishing good luck to all the 10 or so girls that interviewed with me, hopefully we'll see each other again in Doha!!!! Have a great day!!!!
