Hello Cindyj!
I know exactly how you feel. If I was you I would have definately accepted the MAM offer, as it seems to be the only way to get into QF these days! Next training sessions will commence on the 11th and 18th of April. I'm aware that the class on the 11th is full but not quite sure for the class on the 18th.
If I was you I would call Qantas again and ask for any other future opportunities and that you will (and this is if you want) consider working for MAM.
Qantas has not recruited Permanent staff since 2003. So as you can see CASUAL is the way to go these days.
Anyway, if you have any other questions you may like to ask, feel free to
Private Message me.
