FINALLY MAY!!!
Oh well, you have no idea how I’m
waiting for this month.. I finally got the date for the final interview
and it was on May 18th, 2013!! still so long huh... A day is really like
a year when you
wait for something… :'( Anyway, there are 36 people passed through the
previous stages. I was scheduled to have interview at 11am and it was is
in Ritz-Carlton Kuningan..
Sooo„ before this final
day, I prepared myself again. I went to the salon, updo may hair, mani
pedi my nails with the shining red color, waxing, and so on….. I tried
my best to look like a real SIA cabin crew because I really want to get
in!!! x)
I got there at 10am, but it turned out that my
interview was at 12am. I was the last person before all interviewers
went to lunch! Hmf… I really hoped they
are not bored yet since they already interviewed half of all…. :/
1. Kebaya and Skin
check
This is the first step. I wore the SIA kebaya and it was
gorgeousss! I love ittt! hahahaa.. Then, a woman named Mrs. Clara
checked my skin under a very bright light... she asked me to turn left
and right, checking any single spot in my face, looking for any
pimples.. then my arms, my
feet.. if there is any scars or tattoos, or anything… hmff… then she
measured my height and weight again... My weight is 0.3 kg less than
before and I really scared I will be kicked out because of that..
2. Walking with the Kebaya
After
done with the skin check, I walked with the kebaya. She stopped me. She
asked whether I’m used
to bring heavy back on my right side shoulder.. AM I? I have no idea..
omg.. She asked me to walk again with more relax.. and I saw her
sighing.. oh gosh.. I thought she will reject me because of that.. :'(
3. Final Interview
They
don't give us the result first until this last final interview. I was
moved to a room with 2 interviewers inside. They are Singaporean men,
both from the SIA management. So, the first thing they asked to me was..
"What
do you do now for living?" Boo! I said I’m unemployed right now. I quit
my job on December because I want to continue my study, but then the SIA
things popped up in my mind, so blablablaa... Now I just help my mom to
take care of my lil brother, teach him, and blablabla... I think my
answer was not relevant enough huhh.... I'm just too nervous!! T.T
Argg.. I even forgot most of the questions and my answers. They also
asked me about my family, and is it okay to stay
in Singapore.. of course! I like Singapore! It is clean, orderly, and
it’s a place worth living.. I’ve been to Singapore like many times..
LOL.. (not that much actually.. hahahaa.. It just come out from my
mouth).. hahahaa.. at the end, they asked me to read a passage.. I just
read it. At first I read it too fast, but then I managed to slowly read
it
:) Last, they asked if there is any question I want to ask.. I asked
them for the result.. hahahaa.. but they don’t allow it.. :P well, at
the end.. the interview is over!! Fuuh... I quickly went to the toilet..
and and and and and
when I come out, the guy who always announces the result come out from
the door, meet me,
and said….
CONGRATULATIONS! wooooooooo!! I almost can’t believe
it that I
asked him several timesss!! It’s really amazing! Thank You
God! Praise You Lord! I won't forget that moment! I was asked to come
again around 1pm because they wanna
take a break now and I need to fill the employment letter and there is a
little briefing before going home…Woohoo.. no problem.. I could even
stay all day there! hahahaa.. I am just soooo happyyy, TOO HAPPY!! One
step closer to my dreamm. I keep smiling all dayyy! x)
-MEDICAL CHECK UP-
Okay, enough with daydreaming.. :P
So, after all the terrifying stages, we still have go through medical check-up (med-ex)..
The
first med-ex is in Jakarta, around Kuningan. I did it on May 22nd, 2013.. Hmhh... I was quite afraid
as it was my first time. I never did med-ex in my whole life! I really
hope I'm healthy enough to fly abroad *fingerscrossed
What they checked? eyes, blood test, urine, x-ray to see my lung
condition, and then a common medical check up by the doctor. Even my
eyes are considered normal, they still asked me to go to the eyes
center. It turned out that I got minus on my eyes; left -0.25 and right
-0.50.. -_-"
After the check up??
WAITING.
YES. WAITING. Seriously, to get this job, all you can do is waiting and
waiting, up to 4 months. There is no certainty until you get the
training date. For now, I’m waiting for the call… to have another
medical check up in Singapore… I think I have passed the med-ex in
Jakarta as it's been more than a month.. Fiuhhh.. it's really not a
short way to get in the flight.. wish me
luckk! ;)
At last, I just wanna said that I feel so blessed and grateful that I could be one of the twelve people there! Thank You God! =)
To
all of you who are intending to attend SIA interview, GO AHEAD! Be
yourself, do your best, and let you shine like a diamond! :P I was told
that to be chosen, it's more than just a good look, so just give it a
shot! I myself even never imagine I can pass this interview... Best luck
to you all!
Xox, J
