First Entry, First Attempt
So, how did it all started...
In July 2008, being bored, I was browsing through the Internet and came up across the information about Emirates. It said they were hiring. I made my application online, and.. forgot about it. And then suddenly - woo hoo. They invited me for the Assessment Day!
November 16, 2008 - Assessment Day. I came to the venue about 45 minutes before the scheduled time; met some nice people (surprisingly, only 6 boys and of those only 3 Japanese - welcome to globalized world!!! ). The recruitment team showed us a video about Emirates Airline and Dubai and then we had a brief interview which lasted for about 2 minutes (basic questions, like your age, where you are from, which languages you speak, and whether you have any customer service experience). They say the closest distance between two points is a straight line. Well, I say, it is not. The closest distance between two people is a curve, THE curve which appears when one smiles. So, (and here, it will not be as if I have discovered Atlántida), once again the best tip for those who want to be successful - SMILE.
I do not know if I have made it through the initial screening (they will notify us on Wednesday, November 19). Whatever the outcome is going to be, it is a great experience. If you think you have what it takes to be a flight attendant, go for it!
