Nope. Still have yet to get any call up from SQ for the next stage. Last email I've got was that I passed the preliminary interview on December last year.

Is the interview in sg or msia? what is the format now? Aptitude separate or together with final interview?

The final interview is in Singapore which consist of Aptitude test, 15 minutes essay writing and the Final Interview, all in a day.

welcome! don't worry so much about gender, there are many in the system :)

i understand there are many female pilots in Scoot (787 and 320) and Silkair. but i heard from some of the current pilots that sq main fleet has stopped taking in female cadets.. as much as it is the love for flying, i feel the lifestyle and roster pattern is also a factor for me.

Previously the test was done on another day and if passed you schedule for the final interview. Now that they put it together, if you let say pass the interview but fail the aptitude test, is this going to be considered under not being able to apply again since they stated that you can't apply again if you fail the final interview.

Where is it held though?

MALAYA1957;

zachariah777 23rd Mar 2018 08:04

Hello guys.

Is there any Malaysian candidate that have passed the preliminary interview who haven't got the invitation for aptitude test till date?

I've sent out an email to inquire them but nil reply as of today.

Dtm91 23rd Mar 2018 12:19

i did mine on 9 march. They said i didnt attend my aptitude on 22nd march but i did not receive any email so they rescheduled me for 27th.

Acarok 26th Mar 2018 05:56

I applied roughly mid-November before getting called up for the 1st interview on the 16th Dec. Later on 12th January I was told that I was shortlisted for the final interview but they came back to me mid-march telling me my slot is on the 4th April.
To everyone else, just hang in there and wait, you should be called up for the final interview if you've passed the preliminary stage. Just a matter of time.

Acarok 27th Mar 2018 09:39

Its lumped together for me. Should be the same for others

jc777 27th Mar 2018 14:49

can someone give me the contact email for the person who sends out the aptitude test date? by any chance it is Ms Chen?

jasthe 28th Mar 2018 02:32

@flying87 when did you apply? any updates?

Just recently it was separate which I feel is much better cause the aptitude test would drain you before the interview.


Dtm91 28th Mar 2018 07:32

Aptitude test results
 
Hey guys! Those who did their aptitude test on 27th March got any results yet??

Have you received any update on the aptitude test. My case is similar to yours as well, got the invitation and even inquired for it but no reply yet.

FINAL INTERVIEW


Those who went for their final interview on Wednesday 4th April 2018, care to walk us through on how was it? It will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

CaptainJi 6th Apr 2018 14:12

We’re on the same boat

Do update me if there’s any progress. I guess we might be on the same batch interview 😂.

No offense, just curios.

Do you mind sharing which are the many pilot programs you’re referring to. Since I’ve only known about the one airline that gives ab initio cadet program is Air Asia. Otherwise, MAS and Malindo only takes cadet with at least frozen atpl or with cpl.

CaptainJi 6th Apr 2018 15:09

Oh right, perhaps those are for direct entry. My bad.

However I remember seeing the MAS cadet program not having the requirement for CPL/ATPL.

Mate you should check it again, it does state frozen atpl at the requirements for the MAS cadet and it’s been that way for past years as well.

CaptainJi 6th Apr 2018 17:22

So they require you to have a frozen ATPL but not CPL? Doesn't it usually come together in cadet programs. How does that work tho

Well, for that I couldn’t answer you unless you ask MAS hiring team why have they such absurd requirements. 😂

Final Interview
 
They say that you'll be called up for a medical 2 days after the final interview, anyone knows if this is true?

Or do they take some time to process their decision?

jc777 18th Apr 2018 22:09

Hi Guys,

I just attended the final interview last week Wednesday. first is the aptitude test (fun games) nothing to prepare and just follow the instructions. just keep track the timing on the screen.

then 50 words essay, Why you want to be an airline pilot.

the final interview by Panel. 5 interviewers. 1 to 1 session.

Questions from the Panel:

1.Why you want to be a pilot/
TIPS: Remember, the panel consists of senior pilots/trainers/senior manager etc. And they are looking for someone who has the (burning) passion for FLYING/ operates the plane. The one thing they mention to us is they don't want someone who sees this as a job. they want someone who sees this as their LIFE. Haha. So be smart at answering why you want to be a pilot question.
You must have a strong background/story. and make sure you're well prepared for the lie/truth you gonna say.

2. I'm an offshore engineer, so they expect me to know about chopper/helicopters models, how it is function and some basic details.

3. Know a little about the airline industry, especially details on the incidents/accidents. AirFrance Accident is their Fav Pick. They ask me about latest AirAsia incidents too.

4. The interviewers shared one issue with the current batch of pilots- when the new 787-10s arrived, no one wants to try to fly them. So, this is one of the reasons why they want to find people who are passionate about flying.

5. Good Luck. Be confident. Smile and just relax. The interview is not very difficult, but you need to be precise and tell factual things and make sure they are not bored with your answers.

just in case if they ask you to stay back for one more night for medical, pls don't stay. Haha. just go back to your hometown (for Malaysians) and wait for your result.

Hey there, May I know if you got to the medical stage? Also, how long did they take to let you know. 2 days as mentioned by them?

Hey bro. After your finals, if you get through they will schedule your medical the day after you get your call. Some people are scheduled at a later date.

I will be going next Wed, any tips?

Thanks so much and sorry to hear that, do they send an email or you have to call and check yourselves?

smoothtalker 19th Apr 2018 09:37

Has SIA changed the rules regarding first interview? I received this email from SIA at less than 24 hour notice before interview after I prepared the interview documents and paid for the eye test. Very disappointing.. Sigh..

“Apologies, our records show that you had previously attended our preliminary interviews before, and as such, we will need to withdraw our interview invitation.”

tommyuk99 22nd Apr 2018 14:22

hmm, that's a terrible error at SIA's end. To my knowledge, one can attend the first interview as long he/she did not attend the final interview...

Maybe you want to clarify with the HR again? Doubt they will allow you to attend again after they sent out the withdrawal but at least a clarification will bring you closure.
