Well the above may be true but lets not lose sight of the fact that we are SAFETY OFFICERS above everything! Lets hope the airlines dont lose sight of this. . .

i just have to say maybe its the psych test?? did you tell the truth?? did you progess well at your panel interview? did you Answer in STAR format? did you tell lies through the interview? mam doesnt really care even if you did your medical or security, but keep trying.... heaps of other airlines out there too and you might of came across as too Desperate and not yourself...
but hang in there hey

Thumbs up I've got my MAM medical lined up too-any info?

I totally agree that its logistics, however unfortunate, to let more people successfully through, than they actually need, its basic economical sense in a way.

I"m booked in for a medical in perth soon, however I am on vacation in NSW and may get an appointment sooner if possible.

Last airline job I got, I was told I had some minor problems with my hearing at high frequency, but nothing serious! I got that job. NOw I'm worried, as I believe its the audiogram system again, and I'm just getting over a cold, which can affect hearing. I"ve also got PMS and always gain nearly 4 kilos which goes once I get my period, I'm 163cm and about 64 kilos and wonder would it make much a difference if I were to change my appointment to a later date if possible (period due day of medical!) so I will be hopefully at least 3 kilos lighter.

This is a lot of worry really isnt it?????????????!!!

Has anyone from perth actually been given a start date for training yet?

Thanks in advance

I know someone who starts on thursday this week so they've already got one training group lined up. She had a choice of several dates too (not sure about what they were) so they're going to have a few more go through

I'd been shortlisted for 6 months till last month but I haven't heard anything from MAM. Not even a rejection e-mail. What does that supposed to mean?

wot base are you applying for? if the 6 months has lapsed, they can either give you another 6 months or the rejection email. you should call them so they are reminded.... i know bris ground schools are happening at the moment

Concern

I have been through to the final stages of the interview with MAM when I was in Sydney. I got told to do the medical test but I am currently working in another country I dont know whether I should go back for the Body Check and stuff. I have been hearing quite alot of negative feedbacks regarding MAM that you might need to experience at times that you dont need to fly for a month? Can anyone correct me on that comment? I mean if you dont have work for a month then that means no income right? So really half half on this decision but would like some comments as to what I should be doing? Thankx~~

Mam Medicals upline

Hi Ahyi,

Try contacting MAM and explain that you are not currently in SYD. It is my understanding that a MAM Medical test must be preformed by a Qantas Aviation doctor, and they are in every QF port all around the world. I know a girl that did her medical in New Zealand, and another in London. Best of Luck!

Thankx Upper Deck!
I have been in contact with them all along as they could not tell me a place to do it overseas where I am I need to go back to do the test. I am just not sure whether I should go ahead to do it as many people tell me that being a casual position I might experience a months time with no need to fly. I am just wondering if its true cause the job restrictions also doesnt allow u to look for other jobs as u need to be on call 24/7 I have missed the medical test 3 times now but they still allow me to do it so I may end up going back to sydney to do it but I just wanted to know whether its true that I may no need to fly a month if i get the job.
