Does anyone know if Emirates has reinterviewed someone who was unsuccessful in less than the 24 mos.? I have heard rumors of being reinterviewed in less than 6mos. I made it through the entire interview process but was notified 3 weeks later that I was unsuccessful. Maybe Im just a glutten for punishment. Thanks

I am amazed that it takes them 3! weeks to figure out if they want you. You keep your hopes up and then that happens. You would think they know who they want the moment you walk out the door after the interview.Try etihad if you want to live in that part of the world.

Sioux,

Does EK fly you from any US city for the interview or does it have to be from EK ports (ie JFK, IAH). Thanks.

Got it. Thanks. Went to one of the roadshows and still waiting on the confirmation email to interview.

As much as it pains me, thanks for the heads up Mr. Cyclone.

The 2008 Pay Review is out and it's pretty reasonable news for EK drivers.

New hire first officer basic pay will now be Dirhams 22,720/month ($6174) plus roughly $855 in flying pay (45 Dirhams per hour). Current employees also get a 3% step increase to their basic pay. So the job is now roughly $84,000/year to start. With the bonus, overtime, and step increments the pay is higher still for current pilots. That's tax free as well.

Review of housing and school allowances will come in June.

This is the 4th consecutive year of more than 10% pay raise for EK pilots .

TP,
Been in touch with one of your HR Capt over the last few months. Can you clarify whether my family would be covered for medical health insurance if they decided to stay in the US. I can't move my family as my kids are in one of the best HS in the state. I would move my wife after they are in college. Thanks in advance.

I don't know the answer to that. HR should know.
