Hi mayha

From what I remember they will send you an invitation for an assessment day after you have submitted your elevator pitch. This is obviously subject to them having assessment days scheduled for your base. From memory I had to wait about 2/3 weeks for an assessment day to be scheduled hope that helps. Good luck!

Hi All, threw my hat in the ring for the latest round of applications. Sent off my video a few days back and now start to play the waiting game like the rest of you.

Just wondering, the medical you all have been required to pass, is it an aviation medical via a DAME or just general medical?

Next training session MEL!

Hi guys, I'm new to this chat. If I apply for an international short-haul service MEL, I have 3 questions. 1. When is the next training? 2. What kind of aircraft I will be trained? And 3. Does anyone have a cabin crew manual to start reading?

Regards and good luck in yours applications!

Hi all,

I am in the talent pool for Adelaide base. I believe there are about 30 of us currently waiting for a training school start date. I've been in the talent pool since November, is there anyone else in the talent pool for Adelaide on here and have you heard any news?

Hey Lish10,
I was at the Melbourne assessment day on the 8th too. Congrats on getting through to the next stage! I haven't heard anything yet and just checked my application online and nothing has changed either. Not sure if it's a good or bad sign but hate playing this waiting game already! Just gotta be patient and hope for the best I guess!

Hi Hayley, where were you sitting Wednesday? Fingers crossed you hear something soon. Everyone going through this process seems to be on their own timeframe so I wouldn't worry!

Hey Lish10! I was sitting on the table closest to the door (but not middle table). Where were you sitting? Yep hoping I hear something soon! Trying not to stress about it too much
