Hi exmax,
Thanks heaps, I'm really looking forward to it.
With regards to school/college certificates they will most likely check them. It would seem like most airlines here simply presume that you have at least completed a basic education. I am yet to have my PHD in marine biology, not my masters in clinical psychology questioned by the recruitment officers at our national carrier. I must have a very trustworthy face.
It might be wise to use the time you have now, to get that kind of paperwork in order. Just so there's no problem during the recruitment process. Our airlines can be very pedantic during recruitment, and seeing as there are so many applicants, it is easy for them to brush your's aside if something isn't in order immediately when they need it.
Friend of mine lost her place in Ground School, because of paperwork delays with the company's own doctors. She was lucky enough to get into another 6 weeks later. sometimes there isn't another ground school for 6 months!
