Thank you for the update! I feel like I'm going crazy, I just really want to know if I have made it to the next stage. I want this opportunity so much but I am kind of loosing out hope with GS less then 3 weeks away and still having heard nothing about medical. My references were good but from what I have read on here even if they are it can go either way and I feel like If I was successful I would have been contacted already
Im sure you will be fine! very excited for you, I think once you make it to medical your in

bobby07 & onecabin - when did you guys attend your AD? I had mine mid Feb and recieved an email about 2 weeks ago saying my references are going to be called but they haven't yet and I've heard nothing. I know with my previous airline this whole process can take months but I've just come home from Dubai, no job, sorta sitting around waiting and my patience (and money) is running out haha... ohhhh so stressful!

Welcome to what my world was like. No job for 7 months. Waiting for virgin hoping I got the job!
References took 2 weeks do don't stress. The whole process can take months then speeds up in weeks / days.

Now waiting after a medical tomorrow to hear. Waiting gameeeeeee.

Wait times
Hey Bobby,

I got my medical call 11 days before ground school. The golden call 7 days before ground school and the letter of offer 6 days before.

Be prepared to wait and dont let it get to you too much.

misst_ek - I know how you feel so frustrating! I don't think I have checked my emails so much in my life. I went to my RD mid Feb as well and its been going along quite nicely till now lol hopefully its just one of those things and were still in with a chance!

Sydneysider & TTF - Thank you so much for that, iv been moping around all day but after reading that it has given me new hope that I could still get that magic medical call lol. Its just so confusing when other people have already been sent for medicals, some not even had their references checked and then when you read even good references sometimes don't make the cut it really gets you thinking.

WHAT!? Do you get your uniform before GS now?

I thought uniforms were given after a few weeks at GS??
Or is uniform before GS for domestic only?

anyone know?

It's just a fitting but I imagine if their hours are 9-4 M-F then we can't skip out on GS for a fitting, I will know more tomorrow when I make an appointment I guess, but I imagine we receive uniforms mid way through training, anyone please correct me if you know!

Actually called Melbourne today and she said we have our fittings scheduled in GS, so not sure why that info was on my email?

Yeah i thought it was mid training. Very cool!
The uniform hangar at sydney base is at the training centre, and i think SYD does them during GS as its on the same property.

Good luck!

Just anohter question


Do they email you a start date / confirmation of offer when they call you? Did you get anything in writing, or have to wait for it in the post?
thanks

You do your uniform fitting before you start. You then get it a few weeks into G/S
The Sydney uniform fitters are a lovely bunch, Oh and the uniform was very comfy! I wanted to wear it home!
