Hi Andyman,
I was wondering what happened to the other one too?
Can anyone shed some light on that?
Anyway Fridays interview went well for me, I think.
Lots of questions about personal experiences and relating them to the job.
Hopefully we will all hear something this week.
Fingers crossd for us all.

I heard the recruiters this round were very challenging. Anyone want to shed some light as to why they do this ? Or is it just a case of this is the 100th interview this week I cant wait to finish these.

MAM Panel interview
No nothing as yet.
Though it was a pretty ordinary interview for me so I am not holding out much hope. It wasn't a bad interview...just average and I don't think that will cut it. Somethings I should and should not have said. Oh well...the experience I guess.
Yeah, did think that the interviewers were a bit challenging. They didn't give very much and they really laboured on some points.
Hopefully in the next couple of days...
best of luck!

No News Yet
Hi fellow MAM candidates,
Well no news here either as of yet.
Also my referee's have not heard from them either. I guess the shear number of candidates that they had to process is what might be taking the time.
The waiting game is painful isn't ?
I guess it's now Wednesday as I post this, surely we will hear by Friday. Justa simple yes or no, three bags full would be nice.
Good luck all.
Cheers,
Bizzi_Boi

2 weeks!
Hey guys,
Just got an e-mail from someone at MAM telling me that they were still processing my application and that they would contact me within TWO weeks! As if this isn't painful enough!
Problem is there is a great short term contract for six weeks that I was planning on taking up if MAM fell through but now I am in the deep! Not sure what to do anymore!
What a pain! Anyone else hear anything?
Cheers,
Mark

* Same News
Hey there PPRUNE'rs,
I too got the same e-mail from MAM.
I guess we have to sit and wait to hear if anyone else got a different e-mail or if this is set standard.
At least we are in the same boat / plane (smirk). Well let's hope WE all get on the same plane at least.
Cheers,

Yipeee. Looks like I'm joining you on that same plane trip, Bizzi_Boi.
We have the destination now we just need a landing slot. Ha ha.
Stay busy guys, it helps the pain of waiting, and then of course there is alcohol.

Seems we all did
Well,
Seems we all have the 2 week wait to endure.
I think Iguanahead is right, keep yourself busy and here are my tips :
1. Stop drawing pictures of a white kangaroo on a red background.
2. Avoid setting your lounge room up with the chairs looking like an aircraft cabin.
3. When travelling in the car avoid checking if everyone has their seatbelts fastened and that they have stowed their hand luggage.
4. Try not to be seen following other flight attendants at the airport.
I think if you follow this 4 step program you may find the wait not as painful or long. But if you find yourself thinking about the wait, then combine all 4 steps above as in the end it will still keep you busy.

hmmm!
stop walking up and down the hallway @ home, pushing a pretend trolley, and serving drinks to passengers
stop harassing the staff @ the local hospital, and try to avoid using their oxygen tanks to show people how to use it
stop dreaming that you are on board a turbulent aircraft, when really your just standing on a tram going to work in the city
stop harrassing the poor ladies @ the local opportunity shop for "vintage" cabin crew uniforms
and for god sake stop standing in the middle of the local intersection, and directing traffic to their exits!!!!

Haha,
Okay okay okay, you caught me lining up my dinning table chairs and walking down the centre with a fake smile. !! Just kidding.
Just thought I would post an update, as it seems my referree's have been contacted this arvo for a 20 minute chat about me and my referree's said they felt like they were going for the job themselves.
Oh well such is life, good to know there is movement at MAM central I guess. Let's all pray it's movement in a good direction.
Now I have to go back to my dinning room and put all the chairs back around the table. Enough playtime I think.
And the wise words of my mother, patience is a virtue.
