Singaporeair Captain recruitment

HRA...

777 driver,
The ALPA-S agreement ( my colleague's copy ) clearly states house rental assistance ranging from 2,700 sd upto a MAXIMUM of 3,500 sd PM will be paid by the company. And there is no mention of 'no reciepts'. Don't mind my asking but where exactly did you get these (optimistic) figures from! Not that I mind the extras,but just like to know that I AM getting them.....
Thx for your info.
Cheers now......

[Capt.Bee]

"but just like to know that I AM getting them....."
Dreamer you are extremely annoying and going nowhere, so you don't need them.....Keep on dreaming...........

[777driver06]

Keep on dreaming

Capt Bee - Well said!
Dreamer - Last statement on this issue from me, as I said anyone that wants to know more about the process and actual offer pm me to keep those who would interfere out of the mix. Now dreamer, to answer your latest question - When you become a pilot, if you are not one now, you will come in contact with people who will always refer to an outside source to try to resolve a dispute. This is a classic ploy that, when you learn CRM, you will be taught to deal with in the cockpit regardless of your current seat assignment. I say this so that you can understand that to quote an outside source that you may or may not have access to does not impress very many pilots. If you do have access to this ALPA-S document, it is obviously, at least to most, outdated information. Remember, I already stated that this is the figure on the contract that I was given to peruse less than two weeks ago. Now this is the second time that you have questioned my integrety and you are getting a little boring. Apply, go to the interview, then make intellegent, informed statements on this site.

[Clipper7332]

Can anyone tell me how many days off we get on the 777 and how many in a row.

Thanks

[EL CAPITAN]

Anual variable component and the other variable component was not mentioned in the contract given to me during the interview,it says though that those are general terms and the more specific ones will be on the final draft of the contract, does anybody hired recently (last 2 months) have this variables components in their contract??Thanks The Capt..

Get ur facts str8

777 driver,
At no point did i intend to or was making any effort to doubt your integrity.I was merely stating a contradictory point which you brought up and which I'd like clarified.No need to lose your knickers or get personal son.
As far as the ALPA-S doc being "outdated" is concerned....well wait till you join up.And then we'll have your lil chat!( not that i'd want to, with the bad mouth that your swollen head carries....).
The 'little scrap of paper' that you were handed during your interview with the apparent breakdown is probably the only piece of outdated information that there is (if any...!! SQ does'nt hand you ANY outdated info EVER ).And even on that, the figure you're quoting from your pocket book seems magically absent.
Or then maybe you're on the "enhanced expat house rent assistance scheme".......The one with the really special walls. Padded!!
In which case,I apologise for my insolence your majesty.Now go back and take those lil pink pills....

[EL CAPITAN]

777 driver is right, the housing allowance has been increased to 3900s$....Anybody out there with an answer to the variable components??cheers..The Capt

[Ttree Ttrimmer]

The draft contract I was given at the interview includes MVC but not the AVC. It contains a caveat about should the company's performance not meet expectations, it can be varied.

[777driver06]

EL CAPITAN - Thanks - I guess I touched a nerve - he (or she) kind of lost it!!! TT is right the draft does not contain the AVC. Thanks to all who have PM'd me concerning info on SQ. I hope we can all keep it real on this forum for those who are actually seeking information.

[ddsilva]

clarification needed

If one receives a regret to inform you letter, does that mean the possibility of re applying at a later stage does not exist. Can some one throw some light on this one please.

[EL CAPITAN]

DDsilva what did they tell you during the interview??? you usually know the same day, right after the sim ride..The capt.

[Orangputi]

Hi Static,

I thought you said in the Brunei Airlines thread that only current employees should comment and how it is sad that ex-employees cant let go!

What are you doing in this thread making a goose of yourself you absolute hypocrite????

You sir should get a life!!!!

A330

Have there been any interviews for the 330 and if so has SIA produced any terms and conditions for the 330?

[burnden]

A330 Interview

NM. I was interviewed early June for the A330. No specific Ts&Cs for the 330, but some for the 777 were given as a 'guide' to what to expect.

[hilrtougi]

thanks for the advice.

if i were to be filling out my resume, i would definitely be typing in fully spelt out words, but this is the internet.

[portquartercv67]

I am happy for all that are excited about coming to work for SIA, but don't completely ignore the negative info posted on this forum and blow-off the pilots expressing those opinions as just a bunch of malcontents that wouldn't be happy anywhere. KKpilot has good advice. Listen to everything, not just what you want to hear.

And remember, Kool-Aid in Singapore is served free of charge.

PS: would be interested to know if those that are chomping at the bit to come to SIA are already rated with command hours on 777/A-330 or will you be signing a training bond and if so, how much is the bank guarantee and the total amount of the bond these days? I assume that's also in the fine print along with all the info about your proposed compensation?

[richard III]

Hi everyone:
I have studied thoroughly the T&C'S and I am quite convinced that the 777 contract is one of the best ones in the market, however I am kind of tight on the course dates offered to me. Can anyone shed some light on when would the 777 program end, meaning when will the last course be given.
I would appreciate any info on the matter

[parabellum]

Don't chance your luck Richard, SIA will simply give your slot to someone else and forget about you, classified 'uncoperative'! Believe me.

[Capt.Bee]

Myself rejected two slots,got the third one. Kept the channel open and lots of talking. But! -the nice guy is not there any more. So, think twice if you really like the job. Parabellum is absolutly right. Not too much of a need for 777 Capts, and if you delay your acceptance date, will end up on the A330 list. Skip the vacation bro and hop on board! I know the wife,the kids,the mistress, all will be mad, but better them than you. Happy flights!

[chapola]

Capt. Bee, please clarify

and if you delay your acceptance date, will end up on the A330 list.

Capt. Bee (or anyone else that might know the reasoning behind this comment), can you please elaborate; what is the problem with being on the 330 list?

Many thanks,
