From what I've heard, your uniforms are tailor-made when you become a full fledged CC.

For the Ladies, it's kind of difficult getting in because the number of ladies applying is saturating. So, the management has to scrutinise the applicants in terms of height, capability, education qualifications, grooming standards, etc. So, you should develop more on these. This crew job IS a profession as under the job occupation, you're considered a professional. You can work in SIA as a cabin crew for as long as 20 years. After that, maybe as a Cabin crew Management team who flies but checks on the flight attendants instead. So, you are still flying and get paid but in a more higher post. Cabin Crew job is highly valued when entering other professions like nursing, physiotherapy, and other hospitality-related courses. Don't be disheartened ladies. Try to go for any interviews, grab as many as u can. Be it JAL, EK, SIA, or SilkAir, just go for the interview to have a feel of it so as to feel confident. All the best to you ladies and also to all the guys out there, it's Really a High-Flying Job guys, the ladies are Wif you....haha...
to each his own. i mean, if you consider being an air steward as a professional job then by all means do so. however, i beg to differ. as a pilot, i have seen the absolute horrendous behaviours of both stewards and stewardesses abroad and i do make an effort to disassociate myself with such acts of debauchery and decadence. truth be said, while on flights, the SIA service is impeccable down to every single crew member but is essentially a mechanized service with nary a touch of genuine hospitality. i have known many stewards/stewardesses on various flights and it is just absolutely shocking how they verbally 'attack' the difficult customers thereafter in the galley or at the hotels thereafter. i mean, if your attitude and discipline is not there in the first place, where then is the service quality that SIA advocates so greatly?
to be considered as a professional, not only must you be professional in the manner you conduct yourself in and out of your job but also have the correct mentality and job discipline that sets you apart from any other employees in other industries. of course, i am sure i come across sweeping in this statement, but i think in general the whole cabin crew needs a good wake up call in the aftermath of our slipping rankings
greetings. i see that a few other pilots are around on this forum...haha. i am just a freshly minted second officer, on his third trip to los angeles...anyway, i have some comments on this 'thorny' issues here at hand. personally, i feel that the cabin crew are rather clique-ish and tend to operate within the confines of their own social circle (stewards, other stewardesses) at STC. No one particularly seems interested in getting to interact with staff in other divisions (eg. flight ops, station managers etc). and so far, as i have seen on overseas trips, these cabin crew are in a world of their own and truth be said, such undesirable activities mentioned are pretty dominant. i think its important applicants to careers as stewards/stewardesses consider about the lifestyles that you would be leading on flights out.

Guess u're B747 trained then?

Hmm...from ur comments, u would prefer that cabin crew mingle with the tech crew? Well... from what i know, cabin crew doesnt like to interact with tech crew, coz they differ in opinions when @ work. However, u'll be surprised that some stewardesses are dying to get close to the tech crew for obvious reasons! As for the so-called "undesirable activities", i'm sure they dun occur among the cabin crew; tech crew are also involved (with cabin crew).
Happy flying...and discovering!

Just saw today's TODAY Newspaper Classified Ad. Silkair is recruiting again. Is Silkair and SIA recruitment under the same HR dept?...RachelAw wrote:Hi Gals..
Good news for you gals! There will be another recruitment exercise for singaporean stewardess at the end of this month! True! It's real!! My buddy told me, because his sister is working in the HR department at STC. There are currently 2 batches of trainees already. 1 will start end of this month when the latest current batch graduated, then the next batch will start training in November.
For the recruitment this month end, the training class will only start next january if my buddy is not wrong!
So gals, await for the opening at month end and please remember to look out for it in the net or papers, dont miss it again alright!
In the meantime, what i suggest is.... take a nice full lenght pic of yourself...slim down for those who have to.... and do all the prepartion job first! PRepare yourself wll for the interview!
