i thought there wouldve been info about your flights and what happens to you when you get to sydney... im guessing someone will be there to pick you all up and take you to the hotel

i think you will stay at the holiday inn.. right across from my house =)

uniforms... i was told you receive it at the start but you don't wear it til maybe a month after (i think after EPs but im not sure)

We had nobody to meet us, we had to fend for ourselves We got a qantas bus just outside the terminal which dropped us off near the accomodation. You will most likely stay at the Quest mascot. If there, you will get a studio or 1 bedroom to yourself or you may have a 2 bedroom and have to share with 1 other. Depends on what they have organised/availability. You wont get flight details until like a day or so before you go. Theyll give a letter to you as well advising where your staying

SO! After being rejected from Qantas 5 months ago, I get a random call from MAM this morning being offered a position.

It's a shame i can't get on this Jan course...(even though, i would drop EVERYTHING now to do it!)

Ans of course this happens a week before i start with Jetstar

Did you take the mam offer over jetstar jacintamerri?

What doesn't happen if say, you applied with mam and say eg. Virgin. And you're waiting to hear from either. Then mam offer you and say you are to start on such and such date and you are still waiting for virgin.
What does one do. Say yes to mam and if you got an offer from virgin before your mam start date would you say yes to virgin (as its permanent/full time and more to your liking) its very hard!

I wonder what people do or how they go about it :S

It has to go to executive approval first before anything is set in stone.

I think I'd be silly to say no...I'm going to continue studying my Jetstar Pre-course training stuff and I'll go to GS but I'll jump ship to Qantas when/if the offer comes.

Fingers crossed I hear before GS starts...I would hate to start it and then have to resign!

Yeah that's what I was wondering. Can you start and take a better offer. But I would hate to be slack as its a process to get you on the job. But yeah. See what happens!
