Maybe you can do some stretching? perhaps it will help?

i heard some ppl from the forum said that too... those whose height is somewhere 1.58, someone advice that the day you going for the interview to strch yourself in the morning so that it will help a bit...

but i think SIA take your height quite a few times lo... and sometimes they will estimate your height 1cm below de lo.. so still have to be careful...

Yah, maybe pilates? also alot of stretching too.
btw, Venie, are you a current FA with SIA?

why not take up a partime?

I was in your situation a few mths ago...i can understand...from now till walk in is only a mth plus away...so, a partime will be ideal...

after the next walk in, i believe u can better decide how u will want to progress on with your career...=)

if not, thought of emirates? age i heard is not a very big concern for them..they are as good as SIA, just that u have to be based in dubai ( but only if u r willing )

i tot of part time too but i was thinking if taking part time till nov..i might as well take up a full time job if there is an offer becoz part time pay is minimised.

Becoz more or less SIA won't take me in de.
Thought of emirates too, it will be really good that I can leave sg for a while..i really need to get away from here but i have to take care of my love one now so i cannot leave....maybe I will when the time is right.

erieo,
dun be depress... send in ur application again. and try for the next emirates walk in. my friend who is with emirates now is very happy. and i am waiting for BA recruitment too. heard that they seldom recruit or maybe once a year only

or do what CelT suggested, find a temp or part time job. that's what i am doing now. looking and applying for temp jobs and at the same time keeping a lookout for perm jobs that i like.

be positive, dun keep thinking the negative stuffs abt SIA (although i do sometimes, hehe... ). even if we aren't invited for the write in, we can always try out at the next walk in ya!

i think what she meant was were you being shortlist for last 4th Sept's interview..

and did you mention in the application that you went for the interview?
