How many times did you try for SQ?

Hi all,

Was wondering is there anyone out there who have applied numerous times and got in finally? Also, I was wondering is there anyone who got re-applied after an unsuccessful final interview and got in finally? Will appreciate your comments and the steps taken.

I've applied on an annual basis since 1989, but they didn't even bother to contact me. I gave up after 1997. As Lee mentioned on another post, "It's SQ's loss, not mine." Rightly so. Got a great job now and will not bother again.

Hi all,

thanks for the reply. will appreciate more feedback from anyone who has been through it. thinking of re-applying but was told to throw my plans into the trash can. want to gather some comments before i finally decide. really wish I have right of residency in HK so I can apply to CX. much better pay and benefits no matter how you look at it. CX's housing allowance for a FO is about the same as the total pay and allowance of a SQ FO. way much better that it makes SQ look like a dwindling airline.

then again, for me it is the SQ way or no way. funny how I want to join SQ when i earn more than a SFO in SQ. i guess it is passion. it is passion that is so important and if only SQ knows that.
