Yup! Think final stage is held less than a week after stage 2 so they'll let you know if you make it or not at the end of stage 2.

Guess it'll be like handiplast, the pain of not going through is fast and sharp!

Many leave stage 2 not knowing for sure why they don't make it to round 3...

Congrats to all those who have received a call! When i attended stage 2 a few years ago, it lasted about 3 hours. If i remember correctly. First we gathered in a room. There were about 20 of us. A lady opened the session by telling us about what contract they were offering etc, another lady told us ...

All those who went can now heave a sigh of relief! From my last 2 attempts, i remember them as very friendly and professional. They do look for people who are effectively bilingual. If you fare badly for the language assessment, you definitely won't make it to the 2nd stage. But there are also those...

When i went for my 2nd interview in Oct 2006, the manager did say that SIN crew contract ends at 45. Maybe it's different now. I'll sound my ex-colleague out and see what he says :)

Their last recruitment was in March this year. The one before last was in October 2006. I tried for both but didn't make it past the 1st and 2nd round respectively. The Singapore crew are put on the Chinese routes as they speak mandarin but there are only 2 on board, the rest are Britons so i don't ...

My ex colleague who is now with British Airways told me that they fly to Sydney, London, Beijing (fr London) and Shanghai (fr London). The shortest trip is 3 days (Sydney) and the longest is 11 days (Shanghai). He seems very happy there but is evasive when i asked about his pay package. We're not cl...

Hi Rensal, my friend flew before but she doesn't think she is successful as she hasn't received any call from BA. My ex-colleague who also tried has received a call from BA. He on the other hand has no flying experience. Hopefully BA hasn't contacted all successful applicants yet. Congrats to you, P...

Wow Rensal, congrats for making it to the final interview! Seems like you're the only one from this forum who has made it to the finals. The base manager interviewed you herself! How was she? My friend was interviewed by a male and a female. She said they were very nice but she isn't confident she w...

I believe all aspiring FAs have applied with different airlines or are applying with several airlines at the same time. Just out of curiosity, which is your most preferred airline to work in and why? I'll start first... SQ - permanent contract, varied destinations & based in Spore CX - permanent con...

Don't know what questions they ask during Finals as i didn't make it past the 2nd stage but i believe it's 2 to 1, not 1 to 1, as posted in the previous BA Recruitment thread.

That person who posted on that last BA Recruitment thread was throwing us off and making us panic. But thankfully there isn't any such sabotage in this current BA Recruitment thread.

They were MCQs. I've learnt not to believe everything posted in the forum, esp during the last recruitment when someone also said BA wanted us to translate ridiculous words like chinese herbs during the language proficiency test! I'm just hoping for the best but prepared for the worst now. Fingers a...

First they shared with us about the contract, ie temp contract, the pay, ie basic 500 + allowances, routes, the job scope etc. We then did a group exercise. We were told to discuss amongst ourselves what charitable organisations we would like to donate to. After that, we were given 2 written tests w...
