I just received a email about medical a week after security checks were approved, yours will come soon I’m sure.

Job
 
has Everyone on here applied on the qantas website when the opportunity becomes available? Is there another website that offer the job? I’ve been looking for ages and can never find an opening! Not sure if I’m looking at the wrong site 😞

Your medical came fast!
My security is all green except for printing.
They asked me for 1st aid, rsa and water competency but no medical emails yet.
​​​​​​
I've been waiting for 6 weeks now.
So exhausting -_-

Does anyone know what they do in the medical, what tests they do? Blood & urine samples? What do they make you do in it? Just really curious!

You need to do 20 sit-ups, 15 push ups, side plank each side for 30 seconds, 10 squats, 3min step up test and your heart rate must be 100 beats per minute. Then you do the waiters bow, lift 20kg and lift 2 7kg weights. Then it’s the usual drug tests, touch your toes, check mobility in the legs and measure them.

I’m the same, I just learnt how to do real push ups 3 weeks ago so far can do 12-13 in a row but last two I get so weak. I’m a guy but for some reason hope they let us do knee pushups. My physical is Friday will let you know

Thank you! Im really nervous.. surely they cant fail someone just because they cant do proper push ups :(

Yikes with that medical they're pretty much excluding anyone who's ever had a back or shoulder injury (which is a LOT of former crew as odds are you'll injure your back at some point on the job)

I had an injury due to a pax dropping a bag on my head it's healed now but while I can lift the required weight to open exits I'm meant to avoid it unless necessary. So the idea of doing all that puts me off. Before the medical just checked your balance and coordination and to ensure you could lift the exits properly. I've never been able to touch my toes and Dr said it's fine if I have always been that way but by the sounds if this they'd fail me. Bit worrying

that’s horrible, I’m sure everything will work out for you. Just practice and you’ll do great. Hope your back doesn’t cause you to much discomfort :)

This whole process makes me feel so anxious aha! It’s so long. Will get there eventually! Any rumours on ground school dates?

Hi all,

Did anyone went to Melbourne assessment day back in June and is still waiting for their medical or just waiting in general for any progress?

Cheers,

Went to an interview with Mam in BNE over a month ago, does anyone know when there will be a ground school, or has anyone got an email or phone call?

dreamjob_99 15th Oct 2018 06:46

Security (ASIC) checks were started by most mid SEP shortly after the interview as well as reference check emails. Most are on medicals now. Someone rang the other day and no GS date in sight. Usually won't until they have enough passed the medical stage to start a GS.

B.Alexander 16th Oct 2018 23:47

All green ticks for me :)
waiting for the medical email

workinthesky 17th Oct 2018 05:50

Are you BNE based?
