Hey TrolleyD!

Do you or anyone know what the training allowance is for SYD if you’re based in Sydney?

Thank you 😊

[Spice5]

No allowance is paid for training in Sydney if your base is Sydney.... You will receive the training base salary only.

😉 If you’re Sydney based and your complete ground is in Sydney, you will only receive basic pay, no training allowance in Sydney, basic pay is around $1400 per fortnight. Trainees in ABU DHARBI and LONDON do attract the allowances.

😉 there have been around 4 Melbourne based QCCA ground schools commence since January,
They definitely have a few internals in them, mainly from QantasLink and Qantas Customer Service roles, ect

😉 good luck to everyone commencing GS, it’s very intense, be prepared to do hours of study at home, and mabey survive on 4-5 hours sleep per night, it is extremely fast paced learning and exams most days, not everyone passes, I seen a quite a few be sent home, you really need to put in 100% and get to know the manual verbatim. But once it’s over it’s worth it 🛫

Most of the SYD internals have been transferred over, fingers crossed they start moving MEL internals over who applied for SYD base, anyone got any news on this?

As far as I know it's nothing. The allowance is to cover meals. Sydney based in Sydney it's assumed you are staying at home

100% agree, definitely isn't party time...My advice is if you are training away from home and all staying at the same hotel/serviced apartment form study groups...The course really is intense if you have no prior airline experience.

Study the manuals and work off the study guides. I have also heard of many being stood down and only a few getting a second chance.

Ah okay thank you! I thought we might have been supported for not being able to work for 7 weeks. I will be happy with whatever I get but I’m only working part time at the moment, so I’ll have to find more work until training to cover me I guess! Thanks for your response. 😊

Hello everyone! I just wanted to reach out and ask if there is anyone from the December 1st assessment day that has been called yet or is yet to be called? I feel like this is taking a while and am worried 😟 Just trying to get an idea of where they are up too

Mine was the pm session of 29 Nov and as far as I know, no one has received a call yet from my AD. I'm betting on getting called for an April GS 🤞

I was in 9 Nov AD and all good to go but haven’t received a call for GS yet. Someone from my AD is in his last week of training now, so I don’t know how it’s all worked out for training 🤷‍♀️

Hey! I was in the afternoon session on the 2nd of December and I know that a few from my AD started this week. I don’t really think it goes in any order, there must be a ranking system, I’m also betting in somewhere in April for a start date 🤞

They must be calling applicants soon as the job post has been removed and they are still very desperate for new crew members.

Did you declare anything on your medical ? ​​​​​​​I'm finding people who declared something are often taking a long while to be processed

Hey guys, I noticed during my open day recently that there was no mention of COVID-19. It seems to me the internal policy for vaccination no longer appears on most job ads. As part of the recruitment process do we still need to send in our COVID docs? it seems a bit odd that there was no mention of it. Just like COVID it seems to have disappeared!

[WR2023]

I got the call 💃

Hi everyone,

I’m SYD based and I got the golden call saying that I start GS on the 18th April and in Abu Dhabi partly.

Did anyone else get the same start date?

I’ve been looking forward to this since applying in November 2022 and I can believe I have an actual start date 😍
