The long wait is over for many cabin crew aspirants! Yesterday, Industrial Personnel and Management Services Inc. (IPAMS) announced that Emirates is hiring cabin crew in the Philippines! This opportunity is for the cabin crew position, not for cabin services attendants (CSA). It is indeed rare for Emirates to hire again in the Philippines, making this a unique opportunity to join the world’s largest international airline.
IPAMS has scheduled an open house pre-screening on April 8, Monday, from 7:00 AM to 11:00 AM, to be held at the IPAMS office located at 723 Aurora Blvd, Barangay Mariana, New Manila, Quezon City. Successful candidates from the pre-screening will be notified by IPAMS about the final screening with Emirates itself on April 19.
Emirates is renowned for its excellent work environment, compensation, and benefits. Moreover, successful applicants will be based in Dubai. Beyond providing outstanding care for their crew, Emirates ensures opportunities for growth within the company. The rarity of Emirates hiring cabin crew in the Philippines stems from the fact that many Filipino cabin crew members at Emirates tend to stay with the airline for extended periods.
However, before delving into the process outlined by IPAMS, I want to remind those considering leaving other airlines for this opportunity not to resort to Absence Without Leave (AWOL) when transferring. It’s crucial not to burn bridges with your previous employer, as you never know when you might need a reference or wish to return. Attempting to hide an AWOL episode by omitting it from your application will not work, as HR departments often check government records such as SSS, TIN, and PAGIBIG, where all your previous employment details are recorded. So, if you’re considering a move between airlines, do so properly and maintain a clean record. AWOL is never a solution.
What is the Process?
The first thing for you to know are the requirements which are the following:
- Fluent in written and spoken English (additional languages are an advantage)
- A natural team player with a personality that shines
- At least 160cm tall and able to reach 212cm high
- Able to meet the UAE’s employment visa requirements
- At least 21 years old
- At least 1 year of hospitality or customer service experience
- A minimum of high school (Grade 12) education
- No visible tattoos while in Emirates cabin crew uniform
Candidates who make it to the shortlist for the April 8 event will be sent an invitation by IPAMS for the concluding physical screening and interviews with the employer, scheduled for April 19, 2024.
