we haven't really completed our first year yet. But for primary course, most of the other will be spent in the classroom. But there'll be attachments near the end of primary course! after primary course will be simulator training so that's going to be at the simulators and classes in SAA as well.

I dropped an email to the person who made first contact with me but she's not around anymore. However they did get back to me after like 2 weeks+ish. I remembered it took them quite a while, living in anxiety, patiently waiting hahaha

Nope, even during attachments we have yet to follow the shift cycles. Only for certain places like tower, we would do afternoon shift to see how is it like for the evening transition.

You will only be following shift cycles when you start OJT, which is where you will be assigned to a specific watch and you will follow their roster.

It will be quite a while later, probably about 8 months down the road? +/-??
And you'll be given your salary during training but bonuses will be withheld until you get your first rating. However your salary will be dependent on your qualifications, previous work experience (if any) etc... All these will be explained very clearly by HR :)

you haven't receive any pay since you start in Feb? I just called Christina and it seems like she has misplaced my application after sending up for approval. She don't even have record on when I took the apt test!
