Emirates Open Day 2018 – Great news, Emirates have now opened their new Career Portal :-)

**UPDATE June 2018.  Emirates have stopped using video interviews and are now back using open days.**

 

READ ALL ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON AT EMIRATES AT MY LATEST BLOG POST HERE 

 

 

In this article I’m going to give you my top 12 tips for getting the most from this fabulous new resource.

Emirates Open Day 2017

You can access the portal by going to http://www.emiratesgroupcareers.com/

 

Tip 1 – Only ever apply for  jobs via this website.  There are a lot of unscrupulous websites that claim to recruit on behalf of Emirates but this is simply not true.  Emirates will only recruit cabin crew via the website http://www.emiratesgroupcareers.com/

 

Tip 2 – Don’t just jump into the site by clicking on the “Search and Apply” button.  Instead  you’ll see that there is a menu with three items along the top of the page .  Explore each of these because there is a huge amount you can learn about the Emirates Recruitment Process

 

Emirates Open Day 2017
From the top menu click on “Working With Us”

 

Tip 3 – Make sure you use the arrow at the bottom of the page to fully expand your view of the page (you don’t want to miss out on some really cool stuff).

Make sure you use the arrow at the bottom of the page to fully expand your view of the page

 

When you expand the Working With Us Section you’ll see some messages from key personnel throughout the organisation and this takes me directly to tip 4:

 

Tip 4 – Start your Emirates Dossier now! It can be an online file or a simple paper notebook, it doesn’t really matter, but what does matter is that you now start to learn about the key people in the company as well as the messages they are trying to communicate.  Imagine how impressive it would be if you could quote The Chairman during your 2 to 1 interview.

Tip 5 – Make up an information file and start to take a note of key people within Emirates

 

Tip 5 – Make sure you use the expand arrow in each of the relevant sections.  That way you won’t miss out on any of the information that is not all that obvious to find

 

Emirates Open Day 2017
Use the expand arrow to make sure that you can access all the information

 

Tip 6 – Towards the bottom of the “Working With Us” Page is an overview of other companies in the Emirates Group.  Put this in your Emirates Dossier for future reference – it could be useful at some point during the open day

Emirates Open Day 2017
You should try to learn a bit about other companies in the Emirates Group

 

Tip 7 – If you’ve not got one create a Twitter Account and follow Emirates. They tweet all the time and it’s a great source of information for your interview, there is nothing more impressive than somebody going to an assessment day who is really aware of what the company is about.

 

Emirates Open Day 2017
You should follow Emirates on Twitter

 

Tip 8 – Explore the website section called Dubai, Our Home.  It’s full of videos, information and other resources about what it’s like to live in Dubai. Don’t turn up for an assessment day unless you know what life in Dubai will be like.  If Emirates think you will suffer from “culture shock” and won’t be able to settle in Dubai then they won’t give you the job.

 

nine
You can access the Dubai, Our Home section from the top menu on the front page

 

 

Emirates Open Day 2017
The section of the website called Living in Dubai has an extensive menu that covers everything you need about moving there.

 

Tip 9 – Pay absolute attention to all of the resources about the recruitment process – especially those relating to personal appearance and grooming

 

eighteen

Use the Interactive Guide To Help You With Personal Grooming & Experience

 

Tip 10 – Make sure you learn the Training Journey, don’t turn up to an Assessment Day without a clear picture of what will happen when you are selected

 

twenty
The website includes an overview of the Emirates Recruitment Process – you should learn this

 

Tip 11 – You should be aware the Emirates have now confirmed that THEY WILL BE USING VIDEO INTERVIEWS.  To keep up to date with the latest developments you should join the FREE Facebook Group called The Departure Lounge.  In this group you’ll be able to chat with current Emirates Crew as well as airline recruitment experts.

      Hello Efua- thanks so much for your comment and you are very welcome. The honest answer is no-one really knows! The are currently recruiting cabin crew for UAE Nationals at the moment but that’s it! I have heard various different stories about recruitment. Some contacts say they have heard that recruitment will begin again in August, with others telling me it will be next year. It’s good news that they have launched a new careers website though. There is a huge amount of information on there about cabin crew and they wouldn’t have put this out there if they weren’t planning on recruiting new cabin crew, it’s just a question of when! As soon as I hear anything, I’ll be certain to post it up straightaway! If you’re not in there already, it’s well worth joining our Facebook Group- The Departure Lounge- as there are current Emirates cabin crew in the group. You can find the group at http://mondrago.me

    Hello,

    Will a professional cover letter that I use to apply for jobs in other fields work for my Emirates cabin crew application?

    Reply
    • Pauline Park says

      June 21, 2017 at 8:33 AM

      Hi Mimi

      Thanks for your comment – the short answer to your question is no. Your covering letter to Emirates should include a small section (even a couple of sentences) that firstly convey that you are passionate about wanting to work for Emirates and secondly demonstrate that you are not just sending out a standard covering letter.

      In short, the covering letter is another chance for you to stand out from other applicants and you should make sure you take that opportunity.

      Good luck with your application

        If you mean where do you send your video interview, you will need to wait until Emirates open their site for recruitment. You will then be able to access their online application. If you are successful at this stage, you will be sent a link to their video interview. You will not be required to upload your own video.

    Hi, thank you for all the information. Do you know if Emirates is currently recruiting? I looked on their careers website, but every time I click “apply” on the cabin crew page, it leads me to an empty search bar. I read somewhere that I could also apply for cabin crew by creating an account on the careers page and filling in the information in my profile. I tried that but it doesn’t give picture specifics, like how you mentioned, so I’m assuming that’s not the way to apply…
    Thank you!

      You’re welcome Sophie

      They are not currently recruiting unless you are a United Arab Emirates National and nobody knows for sure when recruitment will open again. For a number of complex reasons the last year has been quite difficult financially for most of the Middles Eastern airlines and they have not been making the same profits as they anticipated – this has obviously affected their recruitment plans.

      What we do know (because it says so on Emirates website) is

      “The Emirates Cabin Crew recruitment team conducts regular assessments and interviews in numerous countries worldwide. In order to be shortlisted to attend one of these events you will need to first complete an online application and attach all of your relevant education certificates and photographs in business attire. This application now also includes a video interview where you will need to ensure that you are appropriately prepared and professionally presented, just as you would for any interview process. The video interview will involve answering a few questions about yourself, in one sitting but you will have the opportunity to practice first.

      If you meet The Emirates Cabin Crew requirements and are shortlisted, you will be invited to participate in an Assessment Day consisting of:

      • Initial Assessment exercise
      • English Test
      • Psychometric Assessment
      • Individual Competency Based Interview

      ​Please note that the length of time required to go through the process will depend on your success at each stage of assessment. ”

      My advice for you would be to either use the time you have to prepare for the above assessment or think about applying for another airline. Flying for somebody else (even for a year) would give you a huge advantage during Emirates recruitment.

      Good luck whatever you decide to do

    Hello Pauline
    Thanks alot for your lovely feedbacks. I would love to know if they recruit cabin crew from 30 years and above I have worked in Abu dhabi duty free as sales associate for 2 years and also in some hotels in UAE. I have been home for more than one year now since I had a baby in 2016 and stoped working. with my ideal life now and also unemployed for almost 1 and a half year now do i still have a chance ???

      Hi Ethel

      Emirates have no upper age for cabin crew listed and there are plenty of stories around Facebook cabin crew groups where people talk about being recruited by Emirates well into their thirties.

      So yes you do have a chance 🙂

      It’s now going to be a matter of learning as much as you can about their recruitment process and being ready to go when they open recruitment again.

      Good luck

    Hi,
    Now that Emirates is not currently recruiting, if I get a training for cabin crew how eligible are my to get recruited by Emirates?

    Reply
    • Pauline Park says

      October 16, 2017 at 9:22 AM

      Hi Velma

      Thanks for a great question.

      The honest answer is that even when Emirates start recruiting again you will never be eligible. The word eligible suggests that you will be automatically recruited and this will never be true for anyone – you need to earn the right to get the job.

      So during this period when Emirates are not recruiting you can do two things:

      1. Wait until they start recruiting again and hope your application stands out against the 10000’s of others that Emirates receive every month.

      or

      2. Do everything you can to improve your CV, learn how to do great videos interviews, develop a social media profile that will impress the airline, practice airline English and numeracy tests and learn strategies to dazzle the recruiters during the group and 2 to 1 interviews.

      The training that I offer has been designed to give you the best possible chance of landing that dream job.

      So if you really want to work for Emirates you’ll need to believe in yourself and understand that you will have to do a lot of preparation work before recruitment starts again.

      Good luck

      Hi Mobi

      There is still no official word on when Emirates will start recruiting. I know people who currently work for them but the reality is that unless you are at a very senior level in the company you won’t know when they will start again. I’m not sure exactly why you have been rejected over the last 8 years however I have to say to you that there are some serious problems with the English in your post. If you want a job with Emirates you will need to improve your written English. Why not try one of these totally free courses that are available online from some of the world’s leading universities.

      Good luck

    – Is it true that the airlines like to check you out online before they invite you for the Assessment day?
    – What if the candidate is not active on social media?
    – I like my privacy, so I have deactivated all my social accounts. Will this decrease my chances of getting an invite?

      To answer your questions specifically;
      – Airlines will check you out on social media
      – If you are not active on Social Media you are missing an opportunity to showcase your skills and talents
      – I totally understand the fact that you like your privacy so you could avoid Facebook and Instagram etc. and focus on building a business profile on LinkedIn

      This article here gives you some easy to follow tips for building a great profile on LinkedIn.

      By doing it this way you would benefit from the advantages of a professional social media profile without giving away too much privacy.

    In your opinion, is this just a polite “no”?:) I know that they currently are not taking crew but as for rejoiners I thought maybe it would be different. I had a clean records, without warnings or issues of any kind. I need your opinion on this, please. Thank You.

If you look at what has happened with Emirates over the last couple of years then you’ll see that it’s been widely reported that they have been involved with the cost-cutting (go to skift.com and search Emirates to see really well researched articles about the company.) The good news is that they do seem to be over the worst of things (for example the laptop ban to the US has now been lifted) and that means that hopefully recruitment will begin again in 2018.

      Good luck

      Hi Faisal- please be very, very careful of anyone who mentions fees at all. There are many unscrupulous people out there who are looking to make money from people like yourself who want to be Emirates cabin crew. Instead, find someone you can trust to act as your mentor and who will help you with the process and avoid any “agencies” offering their help.

    Hi Pauline,
    I heard that Emirates may start recruiting again in the coming months. Is this rumor true?
    Also, is having lived in multiple countries an added bonus?
    Thankyou!

      Hi Abhishek

      There are LOADS of Emirates rumours flying around, so thought I’d share what I’d heard!

      First up, things DEFINITELY seem to be on the move as there have been a number of changes made to the recruitment site over the last week or so.

      Anyway, I was speaking to a couple of contacts I have in Emirates and they both told me the same thing.

      Good news is that the recruitment freeze is over!

      BUT

      That doesn’t mean that recruitment will start again straightaway!

      According to both my contacts, there are hundreds of individuals who were given the famous “golden call” before Emirates called a halt on their recruitment.

      So, these people are at the front of the queue!

      What is happening is that all of these people are being invited to re-apply for a cabin crew position with Emirates.

      The link to allow them to do this has been widely circulated on the web. In fact, I’ve been sent it over a dozen times!

      However, according to one of my contacts, there is no point in using this link to apply (although it appears to be a live link!) as it applications will be cross-referenced to make sure you received a “golden call” and if not, your application will be rejected (and you’ll have to wait 6 months before you can re-apply).

      I was also told that the new recruitment system uses facial recognition technology so they will be able to tell if an applicant has applied before by using their application photo. Don’t know how true this is though!

      So, anyway, the good news is that Emirates is planning on starting training for new cabin crew in April 2018 (and this will be for those who were given a golden call, have reapplied and been successful).

      Depending on the numbers of new cabin crew they recruit this way, my Emirates contact said it’s very likely that cabin crew recruitment will be rolled out to everyone in the springtime.

      Fingers crossed!

      So, hopefully you’ve still got a bit of time on your hands to prepare ourselves for the big re-opening!

      For all the latest on Emirates recruitment please join my free Facebook group here

      Good luck

      PS Of course living in different countries will be an advantage in your application. Emirates need crew that have the ability to live and work outside their own country so if you have already done that I’m sure it willimpress them.

      Hi Jolien

      Emirates have not specified when the portal will close however it is currently OPEN and, as far as I understand, receiving over 1000 applications per day. So if I were you I’d apply as soon as possible – if you need some extra help with your application you might want to consider joining New2Crew Academy here.

      Good luck

        Do you know if they will alert or post a deadline for the cabin crew recruitment? Or will they just get rid of the advertisement?

          Hi Sofia

          Nobody outside the company knows for sure. I personally think that because there was such a lengthy recruitment freeze and the fact that they have ordered a number of new aircraft will mean that recruitment will continue throughout the year. That however is just my personal opinion – I don’t know for sure.

          Good luck with your application

      Hi Hayley- Emirates don’t do open days any more. Instead, you have to apply online and if you are successful, you are then invited to an assessment day to a city in your country. You can apply at http://www.emiratesgroupcareers.com/search-and-apply/?category=cabin-crew

    Hai there, I’ve been to emirates open day held in Dubai on 30-03-2018 but so far i’ve not received any news/email for assessment invitation. Will it means that my application is rejected?
    As per all of my online search and in person meetings with current members, Emirates call the candidates on the same day or very next day if ever he/she is selected for assessment after resume submission on open day.
    If ever someone else has also attended open day in dubai. please share your status.

      Hi Samjid, it’s a very difficult situation isn’t it? Generally, you are correct in saying that when you attend an open day you will be invited to an assessment day either the same day or very soon after. Are you in our free facebook group- the Departure Lounge? If not, please join us at http://mondrago.me. There are many people in the Departure Lounge who have attended an open day and are more than happy to share their experiences with you 🙂

        Yes it’s bit disappointing because so far no response. But today i receive an email again stating that ” there will be an open day” in April, 2018.
        I am confused because my application status is still under review.
        I am not part of FB group but ‘i’ve requested today to join.

    Hello
    I am very happy that Emirates Airways is running open days again, and it something I have been waiting and getting ready for from such a long time. However, there was an open day in Morocco recently but due to some issues I could not attend regretly, I want to ask how often is Emirates airways will be running open day on each country? , some people say every three months and others say every six months. Although I am sure there will never be a crucial answer as long as it’s not announced on their website, but in your estimation, how often do you think?

      Hi Selena

      This is a very difficult question to answer! From speaking to people I know in Emirates, it looks like they are working hard to get the video interview process back on track. Whilst they are doing this, they have re-introduced their open days, but no-one knows how long this will be for. You’re correct when you say that they used to hold open days regularly every few months, but it’s very difficult to say whether this will happen because from what I understand, these open days are a simple short-term measure. However, with Emirates these days- who knows? x

      Hi Marvey- I don’t I am afraid. They are holding a LOT of open days in August and going to lots of new countries, so hopefully they will head to Ghana soon 🙂

    Hi,
    What kind of photo do you have to take to an open day, it states on the website to only bring 1 but doesn’t say anything about what type of photo they would like? Also, at the open day what is the dress code?

    Thank you
