hi, is it true CX only take mandarin speaking? how do you guys go about getting the interview all that. sent resume or wait for the advert on papers?

[shumei]

Im from Singapore, and i received their invitation for 6th June, at 2pm..

By the way, just to confirm, is this the HKG-based one, whereby crew fly international routes?

Hi esah,
Mine also same with u, is June 6th at 250pm and I am from Singapore also. Btw, how are you going to KL then? Will you want to join my trips to KL on 5th June night?

And this round CX is looking FA base at HK and flying international route.

But I am not sure whether are they going to pay us any basic salary as I saw alot commented they will only pay HKD 117 per hour and they promise all FA will have a fix 75 hour on air.

So the gross salary count in this way, 75 hours x HKD 117 = HKD 8775 per month + allowances around HKD 10k + Housing allowance for non local ppl HKD 6500 = HKD 25, 275 is our gross monthly income.

The process is they will give a brief intro about cx then divide into 10-13 ppl in a group. They need you to intro urself and group discussion. After that they will give you a card. If you pass, the card is stated next interview date. If fail, the card willstate your application is KIV...

Good luck to those who are going later.... (Mine is later 2pm)

hey guys

how was 's today's interview... hopefully we get some good news!.. hehe

Not very much people got selected for their next interview on 7th June. I'm also booted out in the first round. My group got one girl keep on talk so much and don't even want to let other people have the chance to voice out their opinion. In the end, she also didn't get it. In my group there is one guy who totally didn't speak up at all got to go for the 7th June interview. Don't know what they are looking for.
