I'm just afraid if I tick 'No' and they find out that i do have a birthmark, it would count as dishonesty isnt it?
i am having a dilemma on that as well! except i have a few blemishes and i know i can cover by concealer (i hope gotta go get one) but im not sure if i should tick yes or no.

yah zombofi..same situation..we dont want to look/seem dishonest about our scars...but yet..we don't wish the management to judge us on our tiny flaws...

exactly! i mean if we say yes, they might not reject us immediately but will possibly "extra" scrutinise but then again, if we say no and they discover, then we may be screwed.... arggghhhh anyone who has been thru this before? please advise gloss and me. thanks!

i went to ask a friend abt it who just got into SIA through March's recruitment. She said in her group, there's another girl with scars on her arms. The girl declared the scars, but used concealer on the day of the interview. Oh and the girl got through by the way

So maybe we should declare and use concealer too? Especially during the swim test..i'm afraid if we dont declare..once we hit water and the concealer runs.. our little 'lie' will be exposed!

hmm yes i guess you are right. i'm worried about being 'caught'. I shall declare then and try to conceal as much as i can. thanks gloss!

good luck to us!

oh btw, anyone going to state immediate in the availibility section or 1 month or more?

i mean the notice period. so i take yours will be immediate then aye. im still mulling over immediate or 1 month....

how about scars on the kneecap. i have scar there. should i declare it as scars? but the kebaya would be able to cover it.

i do hope they won't scrutinise this. *keeping my fingers crossed*

my notice period will be december!!

hope that'll be okay...

and stupidangelss about the kneecap, don't worry about it. like you said its covered by the kebaya. did the application form specify which part of the body it is referring to? i'll probably declare no, since i don't think i have any really visible scars.

haha good one zombofi!

I'm quite easy-going w any decision. Hmm banz, if we do have breakfast at Novena, we would have to meet earlier right? Since we got to take MRT down to Newton thereafter?
