Hi. Mine have and know of 2 others who have also.
Done last Thursday, and VA were very happy with mine they told my refs after, so yay!

now the wait continues to see if anyone will get hired or put in the talent pool.

ok cool.
i am seriously confused as to why they would call to say they are checking refs and not do it?? lost is an understatement! :ugh:

I think they are so busy with recruitment etc. They took 2 1/2 weeks to do mine and others. I'm hoping to hear soon and praying for a medical.

Hi Boo187!
I havent got mine done either.. All my refrees are waiting and wondering..
I only know Syd and Tony got thier ref checked from this forum.. Anyone else?

Does anyone know when they might start BNE AD's?

Hey boo,
Had my reference checks done last week too. I wouldn't worry or be too confused... It seems they do things at different times for each applicant. They called my refs the day after I got the email, and as you heard it took them 2 weeks to call others. Don't stress :)

Hey ilana 182
I'm eagerly awaiting news of Brissie ADs too so let me know if you hear anything. Will be three weeks on Wednesday since my application. When did you apply? Fingers crossed we hear something very soon!

Did anyone attend the AD's in Sydney last week? Was it for domestic, and do you know what G/S it would be for. Still waiting to see if anyone is coming to the G/S on 26th March?

Syd16r I think the ad last week was domestic. Had a few intl LH people who re interviewed as they were in the talent pool.

Strange you've had no response to people attending March 26 GS!


Can anyone help shed some light on what's exactly involved with Virgin Medicals?
Procedures/process/pass rate/specifics/what they ask or do
For those of you who have done it.

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply.
The Medical involves Drug/Alcohol test.
Balance and Muscle Test
Heart Rate
Hearing and Sight
Pulling and Pushing etc

Syd16r - We were told last week in Syd they were still looking to fill a few positions for the 26th and then additional G/S to start April and into May. But no specific dates given.

Still waiting to hear if I got through to the reference checks.

:)

Thanks Cart!
Good Luck for the ref check etc, hopefully you are in the 26th G/S
Its pretty quick from when they do reference checks to medical to getting the job! Let me know how you get on!

Hope it does move quick. Refs were checked last thurs, so wonder how long it takes to the next step, some have waited A LONG time.
But the whole LH intl. thing can't be compared to domestic movement I don't think! Domestic seems to pretty move quickly lately, but not fur us it seems, Unfortunately.
If i hear something re medical this week, it will be a MIRACLE.

I want LH, but maybe should have also applied for Domestic as a fall back too if LH doesnt come through for months and monthsssss.
