ah I feel you! My AD was in June, you’ve been waiting a while. It’s just abit of time to put life on hold for sure lol
Swim Test
Hi all, what is the swim test exactly? Is this done before GS? Where do you do it? I know you do it as part of EPs but as part of the recruitment process?

It is a long time to put life on hold I agree. I decided a 6 or so months ago to start applying for a new temporary job for a change and so I can be more patient until the golden call. I started a new job at the hospital and now time is flying by. Maybe this idea might help others with the waiting process! Stay occupied, busy and maybe try something new in the mean time!

I’ve done the swim competency test twice and it wasn’t fully clothed. The paperwork doesn’t state to be fully clothed during the hiring process. (However you will be required to in GS)

minutes straight.
I wasn’t fully clothed (as the form doesn’t state you need to be fully clothed, and most swimming centres won’t allow it) - but in GS you’ll be given a full-body jumpsuit which you wear in the water (no shoes required).
Most of the swimming in GS is with life jacket on, but there’s a short component where you are required to swim the length of the pool (less than 50m) with no life jacket & you’ll be asked to rescue your partner on the way back.
Hope this helps

Yes I know the feeling. :’( There’s a group on Facebook called ‘Australian Cabin Crew Wannabes [Qantas, Rex, Jetstar, Virgin] and although it’s other airlines in it as well - there’s a few posts about QF International of people who are also waiting if you wanted another stream of updates

I have a friend who is an International FA now (he had the same AD as me last year) and he said there are four GS in the next four months starting in March. So here's hoping the golden call for GS comes soon for us, especially those who have been waiting for eternity haha.
