I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at The Emirates Group (Beirut) in Jul 2011
Interview
Open day at your local country where 2 or 3 people form the HR team submit you to a series of tests. An English test - a reach test - a group assessment - and a face to face. After each stage, some people go home and some people stay. Those who stay undergo a final group assessment of some roleplay and are told the result 3 - 6 weeks later.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Group play assessment where you were asked to join in making a decision about how to deal with a disruptive passenger. They assess everything. How you are interacting with the group as well as taking charge sometimes and not taking charge other times.
They started with explanation about their company and we have first group discussion. Second step was also group discussion and arm reach for 212. And we did English test, and then the last step was final interview
Cv submissions during open day, followed by personal introduction. 50% people were eliminated in that round. Then came height check, then group discussion and the next day was a final personal interview with the panel. Questions asked:
What do you value most as a character ethic?
Why do you want to join Emirates
Took couple of rounds in person. English test, group assesment and also online personality test. Great experience, took a few months and joined within 1 year of applying. Personality test took 2hrs
