I cleared the rounds today at the interview and I really have to say tt, besides smiling and confidence, LUCK is very very impt.

So..
GOOD LUCK TO THOSE WHO ARE GOING TML!!

Hie! Congrats on clearing the rounds today!!

How was the passing rate for ur group overall?

Yupz...like wat xmischax said, just be confident when u're gonna jump into the pool. Once u're in the pool, dun struggle. Just take ur time...swim slowly to the other end of the pool coz time isn't a factor here. They're not looking for the best and fastest swimmer

So when's the scheduled WCT? All d best 2 u!!!

THANKS!!

My WCT is on the 29th August 2007.
When I think about it, I'm so afraid. Gosh! Hows the passing rate for WCT? Other than jumping into the water, what else will be done on tt day?

Erm, the passing rate for my group was consider quite ok.
The first round, there are 4 girls including me who got through to the 2nd round. 1 vs 1 interview, from what I know it's only 2 girls including me.

Dun worry...i'm sure u'll do fine. The passing rate for WCT is generally the HIGHEST among all the rounds of interviews. Usually, they'll only eliminate 2-3 ppl. So yeah...dun worry so much

If i'm not wrong, after ur swim...u r to walk towards the HR staff who will be standing sum distance away. Once u're there, she'll ask u to make a 360 degrees turn...hehe. Not too sure wat they're checking for actually...but i suppose it's for tattoos and stuff. After dat, they r gonna retake ur height and weight measurement. N that's the end of the entire WCT

U'll then be notified if u r shortlisted for the final interview...

Wow...the passing rate is not that high huh. Like 4/10 for the first round. I mean, everybody is thinking that they r pretty desperate for crews but yet...nothing seems to indicate that. Hmmm......

at third round instead of giving u a paper for swimming test, they say will contact you??

hmm... though i know the chance is only 0.001%... but i think i will wait for 1 week plus den see got any news ma... den maybe call them or what..

hi Venie.... as wat i know is got slip of papers means in, no paper means no...those telling u wait outside for results or say will contact u again is just a means of not rejecting you directly.... Cos during my first interview in July 15.... i went out and ask the guy at the counter whom was making appointments for the WCT...he says no paper means...sorry u are out!!!

You can ask around too in case i am wrong abt it.

I died on my 3rd round again today...same as the first interview i go for in 15 July.....And SAME INTERVIEWER!!!! she find me familiar...the moment i sit down she ask me..."Have u applied before?" I said yes..so she ask me why i nv indicate at the form..i told her i thot tat means employed by SIA...she shoot me back say...The form stated APPLIED!!! I apologize to her...but she give me a SUCKS face!!!!

then she just ask ask a few questions then ask me read passage....abt 5 mins i am out liao...(a bit too fast to come out at abt 5 mins only!!!) if ever i didn't get her...i wun get ask abt the declaration on the form already!!! i think she find me dishonest or wat lor.... so sad..... always die in 3rd round....dunno should i still go for the next interview anymore in future.... kind of demoralise!!!!

aww dear.. i'm sorry to hear that!

i think i'll go try out tmr, even though i'm too fat for their requirements

try my luck, i guess! but judging from the passing rate and all that, ohh dear i probably don't have much chance!

hey 12345, do you know wat contributes to failure in water confidence test?? i made it to WCT round. mine is on the 4th september coz i'm a guy. No tatoos/scars, i'm quite flabby but can look presentable when wearing shirt. actually, WCT is the round that I fear most,fear comes from my quite fat body shape. it helps when u say the highest go thru but i'm afraid i will fall under the few dat don't.

my 1st round only 3 out of 10. lucky for guys, no skin check watsoever!

first round 2 out of 8 got in...i thought most spoke okay...

my turn, very dissapointed i don't know whether i should go and try again
i wish to let it end for once and for all.. my 2nd attempt

next is important for those eliminated during first round...they are looking for somebody who can think deep into depth before speaking...i don't have such qualities...

to me it is very difficult to pass the first round..i feel like giving up..maybe i am not suitable at all..i think i had tried my best..i know where i had gone wrong but i really cannot make it to second round..i am not confident at all...i even fail my english language..i can't debate...

if i go again, i will probably fail my first round again..it will be totally hopeless and useless..i had misunderstood their question for during the first round..they will test your knowledge...

i think most who pass their first round have a bigger chances than me.. i wish you can do better than me..

hi...

be confident about yourself.. dun put yourself down.

try again. like what some people say on the forum. lucks plays a major part too. maybe you will get lucky the next time round?

practise what you gonna say in front of the mirror. i am sure it will help..

i tried many times too... but never say die.. never give up...

cheers..
