A friendly piece of advice for Emirates applicants.
Do not under any circumstances write that you have an alcohol related offense on your application. It will disqualify you for employment. Even if it was 10 or 20 years ago and you haven't had a drink since. It doesn't matter, this is the company policy.
Emirates is a foreign airline. They do not check. It's a case of don't tell, because they won't ask and they won't check.
That is information straight from the recruiting department actually.
