Hello Flightbunny,
Last week when i was contacted for my panel interview I wasn't sure i could make it at such short notice, so i asked if i wasn't able to attend when would my next option be and i was told that the recruitment team wouldn't be back in Syd untill next Thursday.
Dont fret pet.. You obviously have the qualities they are looking for and they seem very genuine in their approach, so I'm sure you will hear soon. I know how your feeling!
I was told after my interview that they would be in contact with me this week, however I'm not sure how they can contact me this week if they are conducting more interviews next week
(a liitle confusing I know). So I wont be expecting a call this week, but come this time next week I'm sure I'll be biting my nails
My advice... if you dont hear from them by mid next week take the initiative and contact them. Look at other forums Re: How long ppl are waiting to hear Y/N. The Airline recruitment is obviously an extremely long and involved process so just hang in there and keep positive (or try to just forget about it and enjoy your weekend).
My fingers will be X'd for you.
Regards
Paul

I have two questions for you at Impulse:
1 What is your base wage? I can ask and not feel rude coz I work @ eastern and it just doesn't get worse
2 Are Impulse strict on height requirements? Do you have them?
I eagerly await your reply!!!

Thanks!!
To EVERYONE who has sent posts of congratulatons and encouragement thank you all soo much!!
I'm still sitting here nervous.. I dont want to get my hopes up untill I have the offer of contract in-front of me signed....
My Criminal history check is still being conducted so nothing will be concrete untill Impulse receive it back, (although i've been told that it is being fastracked) I've been a good boy though... squeaky clean.. so i'm not worried about that! and my medical and reference checks have all been done!!
As soon as i hear anything i'll let you all know!
BVKBOY - when were you interviewed and told? I have friends who live in HBA, they are looking at accomodation; Location/Price etc. Rent down there is sooo cheap.
Flightbunny - you heard anything yet? B sure to let me know!
Bella - I'll still be there for you during interviews, It wont be long for you now... I'll be there, before you go in, and be there waiting for you with a bottle of bubbly (at "Biggles" ) for when you come back out..
Ditz - Now while we are talkin about Bubbly!!!!
Paully

Skypryncess -
First year salary is $35 484... From memory. Allowances and all the bla bla bla is on top of that.
Yes they are very strict on height requirements. They have recently changed, as with all the minimum requirements, to equal that of short haul. So some girls that got in under the old conditions are under the hieght requirement.
Hope that helps.
Paully -
Yes. Bubbly. Where?

A few days ago, myself and our flight crew, snuck onto an empty 717 at Newcastle just for a little look. It was beautiful. I was suprised at how large the cabin was inside.
As you can imagine the boys headed straight for the flight deck whilst I investigated the galley.
Skypryncess, the galley was to die for! And the overhead lockers, they were huge!
We were impressed, very nice indeed.

I am assuming it was one of the new aircraft with the J class cabin and all the Atlas boxes in the galley and only one oven. If it was you may also have noticed the coat locker which is fabulous for crew rest!
That J class cabin is really starting to annoy me. The large leather seats and the curtains and all make pax think they are upgraded. It usually upgrades their attitude atleast from bearable to TOTAL PRAT! Just kidding most aren't too bad...
They are cute planes, aren't they. The oldest is only two and a bit years old so we are very spoilt to be working on them only. Passengers also seem to like them too.

Hey FB
I know they are busy calling around trying to follow up on peoples reference checks, criminal history etc. so they may be a while in getting back to you... but dont worry!!! easier said than done I know!
In answer to your question they contacted one of my referee's before they called me and the second one they called after, so i spose that doesn't help much..
Try not to agonise over your interview.. it will only make you age quicker...
Send me a pvte msge if you like and I'll e-mail you.
Regards
Paully

Don't forget Australian will be taking more crew anytime from December onwards and a rumour that Qantas Longhaul is about to take a lot of crew on.
DON'T GIVE UP !!!!!!!
