Correct me if I'm wrong, I think this has been implemented quite some time. I think is since year 2008 or maybe earlier.

Maybe. But my friend who got in around july 2008 is on 2 years contract.
Wow i didn't know that it is 5 years.

my friend is in sia since 2008.. Her bond is 2 years but the whole contract is 5years. They might renew you after the 2 years but it depends on your performances and of course, if you want to continue. I think this has been clarified many times in past pages..

Hi Hi,

Correction: The bond is 2 years and contract is 5years. They will choose whether to renew ur contract, but you can choose to leave after 2years.

Hello, I've got a question about age for the upcoming walk-in interview.

I am 29 years old right now and will turn 30 next April. I am aware that too young is not good and too old is taboo. I'm 1.72 cm tall and fit, jogs 5km about 4 days a week. I can speak some French, got blue belt in Aikido (not sure if it helps), can swim with diving (not sure if it helps again). Teacher of 5 years, worked in UK for 2 years, and just returned this year to teaching. But I really want to know if I have a chance of fulfilling this long time dream of mine.

So has anyone my age or over 30 ever been hired recently? Cos if there's absolutely no chance then I'd like to know now

Many thanks in advance!

Hi Strong Eagle & Plavt:

I am 24, came frm China 8 yrs ago, and got my PR in 07' after i graduated from poly. I did went on 12 Dec for interview, since the q was damn long, I approached the officer to check whether if I am entitled to apply, she gave me a very firm answer that i am not coz i must be a degree holder. However, i understood later frm my fren who is a ex crew that actually SIA do accept china crew who has the similar background as i do coz she has met.... #@$^*&^$#&(*

>.<

I really need your help to tell me shall I just go and give a try? or just give up until i get a degree after yrs.

Appreciate your help! Thanks in advance.

Get your degree, whether they accept you with it or not. The world in many ways is a very different place to what it was when either Strong Eagle or me were young. Consider this; after a few years of study you might not be interested in being a flight attendant since there are careers that pay more and are more long lasting, inside or outside the airline industry. More and more throughout the world societies are demanding both a degree and experience for individuals to acquire a job worth thinking about. Take care and I wish you every success.

hi all,

I was not able to go for the 12 dec walk in but am very excited that they are going to have another walk-in on 10 Jan. May I know if anyone's going for that? It's my first application. However, I am worried that they will not accept my application because I am an undergraduate in a local uni(graduating in May). Any undergraduates applying as well?

never heard of that...but i believe is 5yrs contract with 18-24mths bond(training inclusive) leave anytime before that and you need to pay the pro-rated of the amount.
