I think very airlines is different and they look for different traits. It puts you into a better position but you are just like anyone without airlines experience in their eyes when you're in the interview.

Met this guy in the interview that works for tiger who tried for SQ for 13 times (still trying) and Silkair who tried a few times to no avail.

However, I have only put on abt 2 kg so far and Mary has asked me to confirm my attendance for the next interview soon... I think I'm able to put on another 1 kg within this 3 weeks.
Hence, just to ask, if its possible to go for the review if I have not hit my targeted weight? But I did increase weight... :):)
Thanks if anyone can advice!
erm. i think you should let her know you haven't hit their target weight yet.
if not later they might KIV or reject you leh.
i'm not sure. but you could try?
the sky is the limit. (:

yeah. i kinda agree.
met a couple from different airlines but didn't manage to get through.
it really depends.
cause they might think that you're from other airlines,
you might have different "cultures" or stuff?
even though you might have the basic knowledge,
they might work differently from what SQ wants.
the sky is the limit. (:

Hey I was from the June interview batch, got KIV too. was asked to lose 2-3kg.. I went for the review in August and got through. the girls who were with me all got through so don't worry!
As long as you gained a little weight and look good in the kebaya, you should be fine - go for it! confirm your attendance :)

The lady didn't tell me if I looked too skinny or not.. I just do the catwalk... Haha...

But when I step on the scale, she told me I'm too light for my height... I'm 1.62m..

I think I look quite skinny normally. But during Kebaya round.. There's no mirror to look at myself... So I dunno how I look in Kebaya...

ohh. we're the same height. haha cause your BMI only 16 leh! omg. maybe can try to gain muscles instead, so you will hit the weight requirement without forcing yourself to eat. anw 45kg seems quite alright alr. at least bmi 17 instead of 16. haha jiayou babe! have you replied them if you're going?
the sky is the limit. (:
