hi everyone...
can anybody suggest whereabout areas to stay so that it's going to be convenient to go to STC? I've gathered some info,some say Tampines,Simei,and of course Changi areas.But a cousin of mine suggested Xingang which has direct bus route as all mentioned areas do not have bus routes to STC. Any comments will be much appreciated!!!!
Oh one more...I checked rental fee from this forum,assume I must prepare $600-$800 approx if I share with other 2 girls.*sigh* just wondering...could i get cheaper ones? assume prices published in the internet would be higher than agents on spot.but anyway...all comments are very welcome!!!! heard also that we have to pay 3 months in advance when we agree to rent an apartment...gosh.....that's a lot of money

tenah merah. it's about 15mins from where i'm living. bus 24 is direct and you just need to cross the road when you reach the stop opposite stc.

Not sure what to expect except that candidates are expected to be articulate and pleasant looking. From what I've read, it is recommended that the ladies dress in light colours. Drats... I was actually thinking of wearing black. Is there a particular reason why light colours are preferred? My hair is long and I do not intend to have it up for the interview. I have decided to go for a manicure on Fri. I guess in this interview, the first round is about presentation and presentation only. I hope I'm right! If I'm not, someone, please correct me.

In my own opinion,there's nothing wrong to wear dark suits.I wore white shirt,black pants and black blazer for the interview.I didn't even tie my hair.But I guess I was lucky to pass...As suggested by some girls here...Perhaps it's wise if you tie up your hair,you will look more professional then.It's basically about how you bring yourself gracefully and confidently.After all these waiting,I just realise that they pay each and every details of you from the time you enter the waiting room.It's a good idea to get yourself 'known' but don't make it too much (they might think ur attention seeker). Instead,smile all the time. As u might have known,its only about presenting urself in front of 2-3 interviewer.Make sure you impress them,how? From your appearance...ur manicure idea is great, put light make-ups, make urself as professional as u can.Then,when u speak,make sure u speak confidently..No giggling! Thus,u must prepare very well what you want to say. I hope u succeed!!!!
Thank you! I guess I should work on what I'm going to say to the panel.
Doors will open at 9a.m. What time are you ladies planning to arrive??

missmyhivy,
Questions: How long did you have to wait before you got to the panel of interviewers?
What happened after that?
Are you already flying with SIA?
So many questions. Since you've already been there, you now possess a wealth of information. Thank you!!

missmyhivy,
yeah man. I really can't imagine that 'scene'. It'd it hilarious. Yay. we're batchmates. I'll see you and cowie at STC on the 25th den.
I received the grooming standards as well. I recall I do have many office wear, but, there's alot of printed stuffs where they said that it's not allowed or not appropriate. Gonna spend money buying those business-attire man..
ha ha.
There's like 3 more weeks to go. But i'm feeling the anxiety now...
haha...

heh i`m not in yet! i haven`t even went for any interview. i will when i am almost graduating from sp. (:
anyways, what cowie said was right. what`s the point of worrying for the 2nd interview when you haven`t even went for the 1st, right? take things one step at a time and just do your best. worrying will only make you more nervous. alright?

thanks a million! well, i guess i should put a stop to my uneccessary wories !..i really really hope that there be a recruitment drive in february!..goshh..it be awesome! at least, i be all set n ready..lol...thank alot peeps!!

you`re most welcome

just go and do your thing! even if you`re not going for this interview, that`s alright, they`ll sure have more recruitments in future.

Maybe if you got time, you should go. Then can be like an eye-opener of some sort. Call it the art of polishing the interview... perfectly. If you don't get in, you know what's it about cuz u already experienced it. Then again.. but if you do... hmmm...
