DO you really think overseas is EASIER??????

you got it wrong ....

in fact.. Overseas Airlines will give preference to their LOCALs..

just like MAS and Air Asia...

not every tom d*** and harry from overseas can enter Air Asia , MAS as they like... locals are given the preference..

SQ wont be partiality, they do select their cadets btw m'sians and sg'reans with fair.

good news.

sq is expanding madly. they are facing huge shortage of pilots and are hiring madly. in today's news, sq just bought another 20 A350 and 9 A380; in addition to the previous orders of 787s and 777s.

DAMN!!
hopefully they take in FRESH GUYS for jet conversion and type rating..... sign 5 years bond with them for the training....
i don't think they can recruit enough cadet pilot to in the coming 2 years time to meet the demand can they???
SIA requires a minimum of A' levels, but their ACTUAL minimum is an University Degree....sad.. that's why i wasn't called.. for the interview......

if anyone in SIA has the chance, can find out which school does SIA approve other than MASSEY?

Saw quite a number of STPM holders going for the final interview these days. They look so young that they hardly able to fit in the crowd. I actually thought those were school tours.

SIA is DESPERATELY in need of cadet pilots.

From what i see those guys who come from MFA will usually end up in Cargo. I know a guy who graduated in Massey had to do his ground studies again. They actually waived his flying hours, and now he is waiting to go to Marochy

try your luck and apply. there is one in my batch who just finished his a-level and only aged 19

that's SPM rite ?

i'm really worried about my STPM result which is not 'nice' and whether they have got the preference/criteria about the minimum level of education which is at least a diploma/degree.

if they are just looking for the person with the maturity and right attitude, then it's good news for me.....

i'll apply after my sem ends this august, and have to prepare properly and thoroughly.

thanks hoongji.

sorry, typo...a-level.

good luck

looks like you have to SCORe a
GODLIKE score in A-levels or equipvalent to earn an interview..
i did Australia Yr-12, 4B's 1C, top 19% of all the students...
guess it's not good enough.... lol.. already paid HMA first installment.. strating end of the month adi.,.. too late for SIA.
i sent a resume during CNY 2006, until now no reply..


HOPEFULLLY, i'll do well in Langkawi... then hopefully .. got recommendation from instructor.... and HOPEfully.. SIA would take me in as A Cadet-but skip all the training.....

HOW much u paid for it

australia yr-12 in Taylors.... RM14k...

HMA in Langkawi... RM180k

fillet can i have ur msn please?

Does SIA by any chances accept a fresh graduate from uhm.. college ?

I've done my SPM with sufficient credits for the requirements and currently persuing Australia year 12 in Taylors. Im doing law now anyhow but I have got Physics back in my SPM and in fact a distinction for it.

I was thinking of giving it a shot after my programme now or should I submit my resume to SIA before it ? Should I wait for my results ? What are the chances that I will be called in for interview ? If it does not work out I guess I'll stick back to my studies in law.

Btw, a friend of mine has got 800+ degrees on one of his eyes. The other almost there. Do you think he stand a chance to be short-listed ? Or does he need to undergo a laser surgery to be in the requirements ?
