There are cabin crew
wannabes who specifically wants to join premium airline, there are cabin crew
wannabes who wants to join a low cost carrier. For me, what's the most
important thing is, I get to be a cabin crew. So nothing else matters, be it
low cost carrier (LCC) or not.
And so, I decided to apply when Jetstar Asia had
their online recruitment. I applied and there was a whole series of things to
fill in. Basically, you'll just fill in details of what normal job employment
requires you to, and then receive an email invitation from them if you're
shortlisted.
Jetstar Asia don't
recruit often. Their full time cabin crew opening on their website is always
accepting interest status, so I just filled in their online form, and waited
and waited for their email. And finally 5 months later, I receive an email
invitation from them.
That's when I also realize from word of mouth, that their
previous recruitment was a month before a submitted the online form. Oh Well, I
managed to go for their interview at Crowne plaza hotel anyway. It states in
their email, Registration starts from 9am and ends at 930am. I was there at
about 910am, and there was a queue for registration already.
And so, we were to
fill in particulars when it's our turn, take a number tag from them, clip it on
the left side of our top, and head over to this "photo zone", where a
staff will take a picture of us individually with the Jetstar background
banner. After which, we'll head into the small ballroom, and wait for registration
to end, and get addressed by the Cabin Crew head manager (I suppose).
He was
humorous throughout the presentation, he teased at other airlines, bragging how
good Jetstar was, which brought laughter to many of the other candidates. The
presentation was about Jetstar btw.
How it established, where is it flying now,
and how cabin crew life in Jetstar is. Following which, will be the start of
the interview rounds. 4 rounds in total, but only 3 rounds will be done on that
day, and final management round will be some time that week, if you're
shortlisted.
So we're split into
both genders, girls first and guys, and there'll be height check, skin check,
deportment check, and announcement test for round 1.
