seems interview is being postponed for many guys. probably for everyone.

Eye Test Report for 1st Round Interview
 

Hi Guys, does anyone know if there's a specific eye test report form that needs to be filled in prior to the first interview? My doctor just wrote the results of my eye test on a memo pad. Any ideas?

That's fine, as long as he tested and recorded what the email asked for. Judging from the past, they don't really bother about the presentation of the report :)

Can anyone share what was asked in the interview ? :bored:

Tell me about yourself.
Why do you want to be a pilot?
Why do you want to join SQ?

@ flying.monkeyz

Do you know when is the 2nd batch of first interviews? I know the first batch of first interviews is still going on, until 4-Sep. So far nobody has got rejection email yet..

@Cloudfly Rejection Emails
 

Hey Cloudfly,

The application page & the website clearly mentioned that only shortlisted candidates will be contacted, meaning anyone not selected wouldn't be emailed & notified.

Hi aveheart, yeap I know. I am talking about the 1st interview which SIA is conducting from 29-Aug to 4-Sep. People who attended the 1st interview and got rejected will receive a rejection mail. So far nobody has received the rejection mail yet.

Relax, rejection letters are coming. :ok:

overheard that results of the 1st round will be made known to the candidate within 3 week after the 1st interview. 3 weeks after 4 Sep = 25 Sep. Still a long waiting time. Happy waiting, no news is good news!

Someone has got the aptitude test scheduled on 10-Sep, this Thursday. Wonder when will the next round of 1st interviews start..

@Cloudfly do you know when did that person attend the interview?

The interview is generally from 29-Aug to 4-Sep. Those who attended on 29-Aug have gotten their emails for aptitude test/rejection. So far there are two aptitude test dates: 10-Sep and 14-Sep ;)

BTW, aptitude test and 2nd interview are conducted on separate days now.

Hi @CloudFly, I attended the first interview on the 29th but have yet to receive any emails from SIA. Should I wait out or call them to check the outcome?

Definitely call them, you have to remind them you are still around. :ok:

Thanks Cloudfly. I attended on 4 Sep so i am thinking more time is needed for the results to be released. Fingers crossed!

Hi guys, do you happen to have any point of contact with the HR ppl? I can't seem to find the number online and the only point of contact is thru the email they sent me. However, they haven't replied my email yet.

Application Withdraw
 

Hi guys, does anyone knows how long does it take for the job portal to remove the withdrawn application?

I've mistakenly withdrawn my application and i can't apply again !!! please someone advice on this. :ugh:

SIA HR phone number or email address is not available anywhere on the internet. I would suggest you to go to the SIA office and try to highlight your problem to the receptionist or someone. make them understand how badly you need this to sort it out. im sure they would try to understand your effort of coming down all the way to their office. If i were you I would have definitely done that because that's how badly i need it.

Ha, there is no way they will let you into STC to talk to HR with a reason like that. Just sit and wait, if you get the call, good for you, don't drink the alcohol during the tea party, and don't venture out to the town during OBS Lemut.

This job ain't for everybody. 8 or 12 successful out of 1000's of applications, they will not care to update that you did not pass, or be bothered to update you on your application, or guarantee you an interview if you spent the weekend filling up the application form.

The mighty yellow bird company doesn't owe anything to the wannabe cadet pilot, we are and will always be the lowest form of life in the company...

if you cant give an encouraging advice then the least favor you can do is to stop discouraging people. there is no harm in trying to get the attention of someone at the SIA office and highlighting the issue. its not a crime. at least that could be the last resort that he had tried his best. if it was me i would have definitely tried going there. no harm. they allowing me inside to meet the HR or not is the next thing.

750 Upper Changi Rd E, Singapore 486852
SIA Training Centre, Address

Knock yourself out :ok:

dude. everyone knows the address. if you have the phone number or email then pls do the favor.

Hmmm, if I gave the email address of the lady who runs the recruitment whose name starts with the letter after "I", trust me, she'll yell at you, make you cry and probably swallow your resume and it'll never see the light of day ever again.

Just sit tight...:ok:

sorry mate. looks like you wont find any help here.

Its an aggregate of tests.. More often than not, when you think you haven't done well, you end up doing good. All you can do is wait and hope for the best. Just messing up one does not put you at a disadvantage if you've done relatively well in the rest. These tests are just to see that you match up to the hand eye co-ordination needed to fly airplanes and if you can react quickly to changes. These are required for instrument flying skills. The memory tests are to check your retention power for clearances and read back of numbers and not to forget checklists and procedures.
Good Luck :ok:

Just imagine if you were HR and had, along with interviews a whole bunch of other work to do.. Would you like to be sitting by the phone answering or go around doing your job.
Remember its a professional job you are applying for. You need to prove your responsibility and aptitude for taking responsibility of a lot of lives sitting behind you when you get on board.
Quite frankly, managing to delete your application just shows carelessness on your part. Qualities which I'm sure they are not looking for in their future pilots. Kinda portrays you in a negative light already.
I remember being told that they know what they are doing and know when to send out what emails and to whom and don't need us bothering them when they are doing their job and also that any attempts to contact them about the status of ones application would negatively impact it.
There is no harm in trying to go and inquire but you asked for an opinion and the fact is they have more people who were careful enough in filling up their application and making sure to see everything was correct and not deleting it.
Give me one reason why one should be called to prove themselves when they have already proved their ineptitude.

Sorry for being so crude.

The only way out for you is to see if the system over time forgets your application and lets you apply again. They should have a 6 months buffer which would be time enough to update your qualifications in their view.

fromdgroundup, thanks for your input.

the next 2~3 weeks wait is gonna be a torturous one, we'll see how it goes then!

Add:

Although I must say, it's truly going to take nothing short of a miracle for the rest of my other sections to pull this one up.

Hey CptWizard,

Maybe you are in another session for the 2nd interview?
Hence the late email notification.
My personal opinion. ;)

It think there will be more than 1 tea party. They would probably need multiple rounds of interview batches to fulfill their needs over the next 1 year.

No news is good news. I thought i messed up some of the aptitude test sections but i received the good news. Rather than beating up yourself over it, keep your chin up and be patient.

How old are you CptWizard? Perhaps if you are below the minimum age, there will be delays in giving you the news of your results.

Hi all. I decided to contribute since these forums along with the hardwarezone forums have been of great help to me the past few weeks.

I've been called up for the second round of interview consisting of written essay, panel interview and tea party on the 29th of September.

My background is as such:
Business degree from a local uni
No flying experience
28 years old this year

First interview was supposed to be on 29th Aug but got postponed to 4th Sept.

Did my aptitude test on the 15th Sept.

Hope this helps and good luck to everybody trying their best to get selected :ok:

Noted with thanks! :ok:

Tubbies, do you know anybody else in the 15th sept aptitude batch who got any response?

Tubbies, Noddynoddy: check your PM!!!

Nope sorry. I didn't exchange contacts with the guys I met during the aptitude test

I did my aptitude test on the 15 Sep (PM session) too and received the notification for the third round on the 29 Sep. Fingers crossed~~

Hello,

I went for the 15 Sept Aptitude test PM session too but I have the 2nd interview scheduled on 23rd instead. Strange.

noddynoddy: I sent you a pm on HWZ forum regarding your question. :)

There was someone on HWZ who received an invite for first interview on 3-Oct.

It has started again! :D

3 OCT
 

First interview scheduled. Any tips? Some questions that they focus on?

hi @game454. may i know when did you submit the application?
