    At my interview they said I'd hear between 2 and 4 weeks? Did they say anything like that to you ?

    i never asked them how long it would be and they never said.. my mum and dad both work in aerlingus and they said that it can take awhile for them to get back to you... also my friend went for cabin crew last year and got it and it took them ages to get back to her also... if they were looking for references for us i'm sure that's a positive sign so hopefully they get back to us this week

    As I said I interviewed on Jan 4th got offered job on 1st Feb. I heard nothing in between those 2 dates despite emailing for updates. I am now waiting to hear about my medical and have to fill out a form detailing my employment for the last 5 years. Given start date 20th March. Are you also going for ground ops?

    I'm currently in the same situation as ye at the moment. Interviewed 4 weeks ago today and still no reply. I've heard that EI are bringing in unsuccessful cabin crew applications as guest service agents first.

    It's not fair but we will just have to wait and see. Yes they contacted my references. I would really expect to hear something next week as it's been 4 weeks at this stage. How did your interview go? I also heard that the standard of interviews was high. The waiting is killing me at the moment...

    That's true, the waiting is killing me too! They should let people know instead of leaving them hanging on wondering...I was told at my interview that I would hear back between 2 and 4 weeks and it's just over the 4 now... my interview went well I think but who knows! How did yours go? EI contacted my references as well.
