Hello, everyone. My name is Annabella Wee, 24 years old from Kuching and I'm a Chinese Kenyah. Thank you.
Whee!
Remember, during the day of the interview, you need to list your phone number as well as your email. It's essential. I communicate more through email with the person-in-charge though. Fast and precise.
I attended the Malaysian Airlines MAS interview last year, in December 2008. The crowd was a WOW to me. People were lining up all the way from the entrance!
Requirements:
1. Female: At least a 157 cm.
Male: At least a 165 cm.
2. Credits in 5 subjects, at least, including Malay, English and Maths, if not mistaken.
Right! So, those are the basic requirements that you need to know. Next would be the stages conducted during the interview.
Stage 1:
1. Get the form and fill it in. Forms are available at the counter. You need to line up after that to have your height measured.
2. After your height's being measured. you'll need to get ready ALL your certified copies of your certificates and hand it over to those behind the registration counter. Your SPM slip is important, mind you. Don't forget to show your Identity Card too.
3. You will be directed to a room. This will be your waiting area. Mineral water in bottles are usually served but self-service, people!
Stage 2:
1. A few names will be called out. About 5-6 names. Your interview will be conducted in a group. Please ease yourself earlier because you won't want to irritate the personnels conducting/assisting in the interview.
2. Sometimes, you may need to wait outside the room before your group is called in. Once it's your/your group's turn, just enter. Greeting the interviewer is normal. I don't know you but I'm used to greet people. So, it's a common thing for me.
3. Sit.
4. You need to RELAX. The room/place is cold. You'll be shivering for sure. I'd suggest you wear something that is able to keep you warm and comfortable.
5. Interview starts by introducing yourselves. Take it easy. SMILE alot! You can show the jovial side of you. As long as you're able to talk without stammering or having that frightened looks.
6. Interviewers will definitely ask about places of interest. Remember, think out of the box. Throw in odd places which, of course, does make sense as one of those tourist attraction.
7. Discussion ends. You will be directed back to the waiting room/hall.
In the waiting hall, you may need to wait while the interviewers evaluate your performance. Once the result is out, your name will be called out. Those who made it and those who had not made it will be called out in 2 different groups. Eg. 4 names called out will be informed that they have failed to the next round. The remaining 2 will proceed.
Stage 3:
This is a Grooming Session.
1. Height and weight will be measured and weighed again. They will check your BMI to see if you're in good proportion.
2. Your hands, face, neck and heel will be checked. I forgot if your legs are checked as well. Lol. Anyway, you just need to show them your hands. Make sure you do not have too many scars. That's important. Tattoos isn't allowed as well.
Tips: For those who worries much because they have too many moles, don't you worry. Confidence brings out the person in you. ;)
I have an obvious mole on my neck though but I got through the test. XD
3. Ok, you will then... Walk. Yes. Walk a straight line. Honestly, I don't know why. Ha ha!
Poor me but they remeasured me 3 times! Made my heart thumped for being special. Ha ha.
4. The lady will inform you if you've made it to the next round.
Stage 5:
1. Like Stage 2, you will be called in a group again. It's the same thing like what you've experienced in Stage 2. The same group interview. A topic will be thrown in for everyone to discuss. Don't just sit and be quiet. You need to participate! Or, what I'm trying to say is that, you must fit into the group and conversation.
2. Back to the waiting room. Names will be called out and I THINK this is also part of the elimination.
Stage 6 aka. The Last Stage:
1. Ok, I thought at this very last stage, it would be an individual interview but it seems like it wasn't. I don't know but my friend who was also there with me had a one on one interview, whereas I was again, in a group of 5.
2. Here, you need to communicate well with each other as well as with the interviewer. A question will be thrown at you. Why do you want to be an air stewardess? I think you need to work out on this question though. The answer is quite simple for me. Why? It has always been my childhood dreams to be one. So, there I was, fulfilling my dreams.
I was feeling terribly cold in the room. I was shivering. Shaking. Trembling. Not because I'm nervous but because it was TOO COLD! My mind froze. I became speechless and eventually I told them that I can't talk because I was cold. EXTREMELY. Well, I did talk. It's just that, I forgot what to introduce about myself. XD
The End.
It's not that much of a torture. Don't worry. I was surprised that there wasn't any swimming test or something. Haha. Results will be out in like 2 weeks. They will contact you via e-mail or a phone call. Surprisingly, I've not received anything from them yet. :/
Anyway, stay cool and relax during your interview. Take it as a challenge. It's something you don't get to do every time in your life.
Well, it's good to see that people still drop by this blog of mine.
The silly one, who calls him or herself ShameonU seems to be an idiot himself. Or most probably he's a FAKE psychic assuming that I've stopped blogging.
I do have a life beyond the internet. I wonder if any of you know as well. Anyway, I'm busy with my other blogs so... Shame On You who assumes! Hahaha.
Right, skip those.
Had a great time in KL with Odil and her sisters last week. Oh, the funny experiences!
AND CONGRATS ON YOUR CONVOCATION! <3
And this coming Wednesday... Singapore, here I come!!!!!!!!! :D
