A few Syd base Int. crew are getting ready for GS in August. As far as I'm aware no one from Melb base has progressed any further than "prepare for medicals" but that won't happen until they can sort out GS dates. So most Melb people that have progressed to this stage are on active hold until further notice. We got an update email about a week ago just confirming we are still on active hold. So not much news for Melb base other than a bunch of us are on active hold since May.

any idea if internal applicants are priority for GS over external?
I'm still waiting to hear something after completing my questionnaire, its been months...so sounds like it will be a while before I hear anything, if at all.

Hi there,
Has anybody been asked to complete medical including drug & alcohol and submitted all certificates (first aid, RSA, CPR & water) and not heard anything back yet? Its been about 3/4 weeks since everything has been completed and submitted?

I'm not 100% sure, but I always thought the AOD formed part of the Pre-Employment Medical and expired within the same 3month period. However, I know a few people who have done the medical but not the AOD test so I wonder if the 3months only begins upon completion of the AOD component as many of those that I know of did the medical (without AOD) at the end of June, which doesn't even get to a theoretical Oct GS 🤷♂️

Nice one getting the AOD done! Keep us posted on GS dates for you in Sydney and good luck! Hope you enjoy every minute.
I've resigned myself to thinking that I may not get into a GS this year for Melb base.
Maybe very late in the year but we're nearly Sep and TA have said they will give us 6-8 weeks notice..
BTW I heard the reason we got put on hold back in May was prompted by union action that meant existing Cabin Crew need to be trained across the A330/A380/B787 - just like we were being told we'd be trained on - before new recruits go through.
And that's the reason why we all got put on hold..... right when it was looking so promising!
Kinda all makes sense now what's happened with recruitment timelines if that's all fact.
Oh well, I'll be ready to go when they call
Hope everyone's doing well and hanging in there.

Hey guys,
have had a little information from two internals and said that we should be hearing something soon in regards to start dates. They have secured a location. I’ve been told to sit tight and be prepared 👀. Will let you guys know if I hear anything else
