Just be really confident, you must control your emotions and be really objective.. try and relax.. you'll do better.. @Class83 : just the usual stuffs, height,weight,blood test, eyesight, heart pressure, medical history.. thats what they did to me luh.. they dint even check whether i have a arc-back.. or any bone related problems.. hope all you ppl get in..! oh, im currently flying in case you guys wondered how i suddenly pop out, this forum was my manual when i was trying for interviews too.! haha!

What happens if I have to fly off immediately after my interview rounds. My flight is on Sunday! Will they allow me to go for my medical after my trip? _________________ Helloo! (:

May i ask... out of 30days in a month... typically (generally), how many days will you be in singapore? Is it like 12 out of 30 days in sg? or as much as 15days out of 30 days in sg? Thanks in advance!

Thanks in advance! depends on your flight schedule. You can do a cof and generally don't really be in singapore and also depends on the type of fleet you operating. EG: A345 or A380. but typically, 15 days should be the safer bet. hope this helps ^^ Kristine _________________ Tons of Cabin Crew Tips - http://siacabincrew.wordpress.com

Does it means, on "good" months, you could possibly be in sg for more than 15days? Thanks!

Managed to get through the rounds till the final round. I was eliminated the last round, the management round. Can't believe it wasn't individual interview. I think they changed the system. Anyway, I heard about the '6-months ban' if you are eliminated the final round. I wasn't told about this from the staff who told me I didn't make it. I plan to go again next recruitment but kinda hesitant about it when I heard about the ban. Would you advise me to go for the March recruitment? Would they ask me to leave and come back again. Or should I just go for it? Thanks.

OK they didn't tell you but from your post you obviously know now. Should you go, one way or the other they are going to know, if not at the interview maybe at a later date when you might be employed by them and if haven't told them you tried before (assuming they ask at the walk-in or whenever) then they will sack you for dishonesty. Do yourself a favour: wait, think, plan then the sweeter success will be. _________________
