Advice needed from SIA(and aspiring) pilots
Hi all,
I am very encouraged by the show of camaraderie amongst the thread of SIA cadet pilot and can one day become a SIA pilot myself.
I am a 25 year-old female Singaporean who is currently pursuing a CPL with multi-engine endorsement and IFR. As I am pretty kiasu, I wanted to weigh my chances of getting in the cadet program by calling the HR departments of both SIA and SilkAir. The former rejecting me on the basis of not hiring females, the latter says that they do, but selection is done by SIA.
My dilemma is whether to shamelessly pursue this aspiration, or to be more realistic and try other avenues (other airlines, ATC).
Any advice/comments will be greatly appreciated!
