 "Dubai's Emirates set to hire more than 11,000 staff")
Dubai-based Emirates Group plans to hire 11,000 new staff over the next year as it is set to add 20 aircraft to its fleet and expand other operations.
This would increase its staff size by six per cent by March 2016. Emirates Group comprises Emirates airline and aircraft ground handling and flight catering firm dnata.
Nearly half will be recruited for Dubai-based cabin crew jobs while it will also fill positions in flight operations, engineering, airport services and corporate roles.
"Right now we have over 75,000 employees in Dubai and around the world," Abdulaziz Al Ali, executive vice president of human resources at Emirates Airline and Group said in a statement.

In 2014, Emirates received more than 480,000 online job applications, it said.
