The airline, Emirates, has launched global cabin crew recruitment drive for up to 5,000 new staff, with recruitment days pencilled in for Belgium.
The move also marks imminent arrival of its new fleet of Airbus A350s.
The recruitment drive is designed primarily for those who will soon or have recently stepped into the world of work.
The airline is inviting fresh graduates with internships or part-time jobs on their résumés, those with a year or so of hospitality or customer service experience, and individuals keen to embark on a career travelling the globe.
The new recruits will be a part of one of the world’s largest international airlines plus they will learn hospitality and life skills from some of the top trainers in the business.
They will get the chance to travel the world across more than 140 cities in 76 countries and enjoy the benefits working as cabin crew.
In 2024, Emirates’ recruitment team will host open days and assessments in more than 460 cities across six continents, reflecting the span of the airline’s network and the diversity of its cabin crew team, while flying the flag for living and working in dynamic Dubai.
In 2023, Emirates hired 8,000 cabin crew and held recruitment events in 353 cities as the airline ramped up its services post the pandemic. In August 2023, the airline’s cabin crew numbers crossed the 20,000 milestone and are now 21,500 strong.
