Any idea if they check the back?VeniE wrote:height & weightpseudonymace wrote:Ah...thank you so much girl! Was completely clueless untill now. Anyways, what will the check up consist of? Blood test and stuff I suppose? Is BMI also a criteria? Cos I am a little on the light side.VeniE wrote: is like an employement medical checkup..
very similar to those medical checkup you need to do before a company will employ you..
basically is to ensure that you're fit to work.
urine test
blood pressure test
eyesight & colorblindness test
chest x-ray
think you weightshould be fine la.. as long as you dun have any illness or any physical problem that will hinder your job as a cabin crew..
Mine doesn't give me problems (i.e. aches or pains) but it might make my back look a lil unproportionate

you can state your proficiency on the application form itself..soggy wrote:One more thing, does it really give an added advantage if you can speak a foreign language? I can speak thai. And how will they know if you can or if you're merely lying?
hmm..maybe during self-intro can also mention that.. could also use speak some simple thai to liven up your interview session..
always good to give the interviewer a good and deep impression..
but dun brag abt it k..

Soaring above all

from the chest x-ray they will be able to tell how's your spine..
if necessary they will ask you to go back for another x-ray on your spine(this will be at your own expense)
if your curve degree is less than 20 den should be fine..
Soaring above all

practise in front of a mirror..
they do look at how you walk wearing the kebaya..
when you walk, be natural.. esp your shoulder..
Soaring above all
Venie: Will they (clinic or sia) actually tell you your medical results? Btw today we were told thereis 4mths of training, how did you all manage to get 3 or 3.5mths?

hello everybody,
first of all, congrats to everybody who have passed and good luck to those trying out!
i have a ques in mind, does anybody know if it is possible to start training with O levels results first instead of waiting for the diploma transcript? cause from what i know, the transcript might take a while to be out and i'm quite keen to start asap.

Re: Height
Hi Venie,VeniE wrote:not all are tall super model kind de... average is standing @ 1.6m++sunseasky44 wrote:Hi Venie, can i just check with you if the girls who got through were all tall or something? Cos im thinking of going for the 27th jan walk-in but am so apprehensive of my height. :/ BTW, congrats cos u're so lucky you'll be realising your dreams in 3 mths' time!!
as long as you're 1.58m, you can pass..
I have a problem.. When i went to the last interview, i was measured at 157cm but the lady still let me proceed to round 1. After i passed round 1, she wanted to take my height again. Then when the lancome lady took my height, the HR lady still say i'm not tall enough but the lancome lady still let me pass. But couldn't get pass after skin check.
How? U think i should still try for next interview? Do u think they are very strict on that last cm?
Appreciate your kind advice..
My dreams will all be fulfilled one day..
