Interviewed Mar 2010 in Dubai (United Arab Emirates) (took 2 months)
Applied online and was contacted after 1 year with 4 days notice to show up on the interview.
Interview started with a group presentation to another 100+ candidates who came to the same location. Candidates were broken into small groups and given group activities.
After each activity/test there were eliminations. From 100+ folks 9 were left, including myself.
Personality test was given and we were advised to schedule final interview, which was a 1:1 interview.
Joined the company after 2 months of total process.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
There is no negotiation, its a take it or leave it contract. Many references in the contract are to Emirates Group Employee Regulations Manual. Requests to have a look at the manual before signing the contract are met with skepticism. Recruitment staff are reluctant to reply quickly to inquiries.

Interviewed May 2011 (took a day)
I first applied online. After nearly 1 months of waiting, they finally called. First there, was a presentation about the group at the assessment centre, and then a English language proficiency test. After the test, they collect your updated CV with any certificates and passport copy. They ask you a couple of screening questions, about your experience, and why you want to to work. Then you are supposed to fill up a form with your details, application number, and pre-joining details ( languages you know to read, speak, write,) contact details, etc.etc. after this was collected we were free to go.
After nearly a week, they started sending out rejection letters they called up many of the interviewers and rejected them ( without reason). But for me, nearly another month,I got a call for a final interview, whereby i was interviewed by two people ( Hr coordinator and the airport services person) about my behaviour traits, questions like toughest challenge, how i overcame them, my weakness, why work for Emirates, how i deal with angry customers, and similar customer service questions. It took about 25min, and then they told us about the job details, the offer, the grade, etc. and told us they will inform if selected. I finally got my letter of confirmation, after close to a month. The process started in April and it took almost till July end-aug middle before I got it. I declined the offer though, because I got something better. In customer services, they can put you in either check-in, boarding, ramp or baggage ( with the latter 2 being alot of physical work and attending long hours in the heat.)

Interviewed May 2009 in New York, NY (took 2 months)
My interview at Emirates was the most thorough experience I've ever had. The online application takes a long time, be ready! I was asked to do online personality tests which were easy and not that complicated to figure out what makes you a good employee (answer: I like to work on my own vs I am really good at working with a team). When I was asked to come to meet the managers, I had to prepare a presentation, meet with people separately and work on an assignment on the spot. It felt good overall.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
Do your research upfront and if salary is important stand up for what you want. They will try to get the lowest salary possible from you. You will not get a raise later, except for the minimal cost of living increase. Promotions are really tough to obtain. Bonuses can be really good but only based on companies results.

Interviewed Jan 2008 in Dubai (United Arab Emirates) (took 1 week)
I was called by phone and told that I had been selected and given the date, time and place to turn up for the interview. The first stage was a directly written test that consisted of answering three questions based on customer service scenarios. The second stage involved a presentation done by those who had been shortlisted after the first stage and it was done first by group then afterwards ended by individual presentation. Questions are asked while the presentation is going on. The third and last bit was a panel interview wher two interviewers asked me for finer details about my past career and academic history and also went with me through each detail mentioned in my CV. They also asked for my salary expectation and whether I would be comfortable working in the Company.
Interview Questions
Negotiation Details
No. I was desperate for a job and readily accepted the salary offer. I advise those at he negotiating stage to ask if there is an annual salary increment structure in place since one soon realises that the salary is not enough to support even a basic lifestyle in this region/city.
