Sure, it is very confusing! The first email I got said that I got through to the reference round (but I had that in a previous email a week prior). This email said that shortly I will receive an email from xref, and I would need to input my reference details into this xref site so they can email my references (I didn't get the email from them yet). This email also had a scanned copy of my reference list from the AD attached, so I feel it's all a bit confusing :P

I see... Yes, really is a bit confusing. Especially knowing that not everyone had to do that. For example, those two girls from my AD...no such email, just a quick call to ppl they've nominated.
After reading your post just now, I've texted them both to ask did anyone try to contact their referees via email before calling them. They both said no and they said referees were literally called one after another.
I wonder why some are contacted by phone, some by email. I would understand email in a case of a big time zone difference, such as mine, but the rest would just be easier calling. Oh, who knows! We just need to be patient and hope all goes well.
Has it been a long time since you received that first email? Fingers crossed for you!

I'm really confused because my reference was called on 20/06 and they said only one reference is needed at that stage. Now like a month later they are going to check my 2ns reference? And I find out the email add I left with them on AD is WRONG!!!!

Hellomeow, that was what I was thinking maybe there was an error in the references provided so they have sent out the xref email to get updated details to complete the checks. The good news is they have picked this up and they are now going to be able to contact your second reference 😊

Hi Mn64, I attended the AD on 7 July, afternoon session. I also had the same email from Xref. I contacted them today and they just replied saying that they are still to hear from Qantas with the details they need. I am becoming anxious as time goes on as one of my referees is about to go away for a month and wont be checking "work emails".

This waiting for news after the Melbourne Assessment day is painful... I think Sydney recruitment has moved along a lot quicker than Melbourne as some people found out the next day or two that they were through to reference checks... Hopefully the wait will be worth it... Anyone from Melbourne had any news? I think some internals may have...

Sarah77 - Don't give up hope! My friend attended the assessment day in MEL recently and still has no news. Another few still haven't heard since submitting their video. It's worth the wait for sure, no news so far is good news!
I am internal and up to 'final round', still waiting for a call or email
hang in there. I think it may be another week or two at least, for both of us.

Thank you! So lucky I got both at once.
Now I understand what you were telling me about the first email.
This Xref one is just a link to upload the references and says they'll both be contacted strictly via email so to make sure it's a correct one.
Hopefully, you'll all get it tomorrow so we can again be on the same page.
Must say, I like reading posts from people that are a step ahead of me 'cause it gives me the idea what to expect and when.
