Singapore Airline
They're hiring madly now. That's what I noticed. Once every month since June. The next one will be on the 25 & 26 Aug.
Lets talk about their recruitment practices. I've heard a number of nasty stories. Putting torchlight to your face to see how well your complexion is, etc. Is that even legal?

Hi
Yes...they are recruiting every month since last year......either crew resign after getting their bonus or they transfer to another airline...mostly qatar, emirates or etihad cause these 3 middle east airlines recruit extensively in singapore as well..........
First round - self introduction in a group of 10
Second round - one to one
third round - for ladies it would be the 'uniform and skin check test'- yes they do have lights shining on their skin to check for any skin related problems and were told to walk to see if they look good in their uniform..For men...none....it is illegal though for major western airline....
fourth round- swimming test...jump and swim backstroke....life vessel provided...so no worries if you dont know how to swim
fifth and final round- management interview...
Every stage is an elimination stage...clear all..go through medical in own country.....have to go through check up once again in singapore before your meployment pass is approve....
Heard that they are going to recruit till next year...in huge shortage of crew every month.....

SIA is very particular about educational requirement, height & weight issues as well.....Pls ensure that you meet their minimum requirement....SPM...They might eliminate you due to insufficient working experience...not guaranteed though.....Just go and try...

Yeah I am thinking of going to the interview on the 25/26 this month.
What sort of questions do they ask on the first round?
I meet all their requirements but I am underweight. Will that be a problem? And looks-wise, do they immediately eliminate people who doesn't have straight teeth or flawless face/skin? I don't mean skin disease, just a small scar or a mole.

Hmm...
well, they dun care if the tattoo is visible or not when u wear a uniform. they just kick u off. my friend that i mentioned, he has a female friend looking like Kavita Sindhu but has a scar on the hand. she used concealer to cover the scar but the interviewer just take her hand and rub it off and str8 away disqualified.
actually, does looks really so important?i mean i don't really see much of good looking guys on SIA. i believe i am quite good looking bah had a flight from SIN-CDG and one of the male crews dun even speak English well.(he is from SIN tho) if all these airlines companies choose good looks over working experiences then i have no say but wish them "SHENG YI XIN LONG" and hope they won't regret for taking those with good looks but you know......

Is it a big and obvious scar? I went for Silkair 2 years ago. Silkair is part of the SIA group of companies so I believe the recruitment process is about the same as SQ. I have a mole on my face and the recruitor then told me not to worry about it.
The part where the interviewer took her hand and rubbed off the concealer sounds nasty to me. I mean if she had used concealer to cover the scar, it shouldn't be visible anymore.
I do agree with the "good looking" people on SQ. But hey...beauty is the eyes of the recruitors.

Hello there!
Did you go to the interview? They're having one tomorrow here in Singapore. And my cousin is one of the interviewers. I'm still not going though.
