FA/CC APPLICATION 101

6 comments
A year ago, I posted the names of some agencies that handle F.A. applications. I also included our domestic airlines and how to apply with them.
I’ve been receiving questions re how to apply and where to go so I’ll be posting the names of the agencies, airlines and some basic requirements. I hope this will help :)

• BASIC REQUIREMENTS
1. Resume/CV
2. Prepare your ID pictures (in case they ask for one)
3. Passport size photos
4. Whole body photo (4R) – here, please avoid wearing flats. You should be in business attire – with blazer and your skirt should be KNEE length.
5. Photocopies of your credentials
6. If you’re applying for an international carrier, make sure you have a passport and have it photocopied.

PHILIPPINE AIRLINES (screening is done at PNB Building along Macapagal Avenue) – I’m not sure if there have been changes with their process, but when I applied a year ago, I just downloaded a form which you’ll find in their website, filled it up and had it scanned and submitted it online thru: placement@pal.com.ph. Kindly check their website for the procedure.

ZEST AIR (near the old Domestic Airport) – I’m always clueless about their screening schedule. So for this, just check the flight attendant/stewardess thread at pinoyexchange.com or if you may just leave your CV with them and just wait for their call re the screening schedule.

- Check the classified ads section of The Manila Bulletin and Philippine Star
- Check out some blogs, I frequently post openings here.
- Visit pinoyexchange.com and find the thread (steward/stewardess thread V)

2. What to wear during screenings?
- Refer to the “attire” portion of this entry. Even if you’ll only submit a CV, make sure you come in business attire and in full make up.

5. Are married applicants or single with kids are accepted?
- Yes, unless specified by the airline that you need to be single with no kids.


I’m still “running after the dream” til now, but I hope my post can help you. All the best! :D If you have questions, please do not hesitate to send me an email. Please look at the “about me” section for the address. You may also leave a message on the facebook account at the right part of this blog. I created that for this space.

Theme for the Week: WHEN ONE DOOR SHUTS, ANOTHER OPENS

0 comments
I've kept mum about my plans recently. I felt like it's better if I just surprise everyone one day, but that's not the case for today. I know the week is just about to end but with how the past few days go, I can already say that there's a theme for this week.

I'm open about applying to other jobs while applying and waiting for my dream job as well. With regards to my dream job, I really don't care if I start here or be based abroad, I'm after the experience. After all, I can apply to my dream companies when I have a year of experience or so. Before that, I want to share that I recently applied with an Information Provider Company in McKinley. I will not say the name of the company as I don't want to have issues with that, although I have no bad words to say. I was actually impressed that they offer a shuttle ride for the applicants! That was my first time to experience that, and that was really good because it's hard to get there if you're not willing to take a cab. I applied for a transcriptionist/voice writer position, I've reached the final interview and was asked to wait for days or up to two weeks for the result. To make the story short, I received an email last Monday, stating that I didn't qualify for the position.

Come Tuesday, I was about to sleep and prepare for the next day's final interview (w/ a domestic airline) when I've thought of checking my email that I'm using when applying. I got an email from the Manila office of an International Airline, stating they received my application for the Passenger Services Agent position, responsibilities would include Reservations/Ticketing, and if I wanted to pursue my application then I have to send an essay about any topic. Of course I didn't start an essay right away as my mind was set for the next day's interview. I just thought that if ever I didn't make it through my airline application, I'll make the essay and pursue with my application.

Wednesday, the airline interview, woke up early, had my hair and make up done and asked my dad to bring me to Pasay. I was early and had some chats with the other girls. From my counting, we were 13 who made it to the second part. I thought the second part would already be the final part wherein we would be interviewed by the bosses but a group discussion took place and if you passed, then you'd be in for the super final interview.  Out of 13, 7 girls were asked to proceed to the next step, including me. I was surprised because I thought I won't make it anymore to the next step as I was on the second batch to be called. With the group discussion, it's like PAL's impact interview, minus the interactive part. From what I've observed, you should feel at ease with your co-applicants and with the interviewer. Just be true to yourself and don't be shy to say what you want to say. If you're nervous, then, just smile.  Don't hesitate to ask questions because it indicates that you're listening and participative.  From 7, I didn't make it through. AGAIN. That was the 4th time that I ever made into the final interview for different airlines. Almost doesn't count and it was really sad. Then again, it's about time to move on. I couldn't help to say SAYANG, the next steps after the final would be medicals and submission of other pre-employment requirements. Nevertheless, God didn't leave me empty handed, there's another International Airline that I couldn't hope for, although, the position was not the one that I really wanted, but I guess, I could make it as my starting point and my job while I'm applying to my dream job. I just have to look on the brighter side of things. I will never stop believing. I'll keep holding on to my dream and pray that one day, I'd make it through all the stages and requirements and eventually, FLY AWAY.

Once Broken but is MOVING ON with FAITH

2 comments
Good morning world! It's been days since my last post. 

I learned a lot of lessons this week. I started this week with a big hope in my heart. Been heart broken in the middle of the week, and now, I'm moving on. I could not tell the whole story, at least not for now. I still owe you a story in the future. It's not that I'm ashamed to tell you about a recent failure. If you would recall, I never denied all my failed airline applications in the past. I'm very much open about them. Sometimes, there were really things you just want to keep on yourself.  


I'm grateful for everyone who keeps on supporting me all throughout. Your every word keeps me going. I know, I owe a lot to everyone who drops by my blog. Thank you for all the comments. Thank you for all the encouraging words. I'm grateful that God did not leave me with nothing. When 'that' door closed (as for now), another opened the day after. I considered that as a sign that this might not be the right time and there's a better opportunity waiting, I just need to wait for that. 


I was teary eyed when my mom told me (though not verbatim):

"Hindi pa siguro ngayon ang panahon mo para diyan. May mas magandang plano ang Diyos sa'yo. Buksan mo muna ang sarili mo sa ibang pinto. Next time na lang ulit. " 


"Malay mo sa mas maganda ka ilagay ni Lord. Huwag mo munang ipilit ngayon. Baka hindi ka pa hinog. Magtrabaho ka muna ulit dito at mas maghanda ka sa mga susunod. Honor na rin yang narating mo." 


My friends also told me a lot of uplifting words. I would agree with my best friend "don't ever think you're not good enough just because you didn't get in". With my mom's, cousin's and friends words, who would not feel better? I woke up this morning with a light heart. No worries. No hang ups. Sometimes, we just have to be brave enough to accept the unknown. If our moms know best, God also knows best. Don't ever give up people! It's hurting to fail especially when you're almost there but still didn't make it.  The pain might be there for some time, but it would subside soon. I learned to take things easy and not to put pressure on me. I still have so many years to make my lifetime dream come true. Patience would always be a virtue! 


Last Tuesday, I attended the 6 PM mass for our Lady of Fatima of Portugal. The image visited our parish and I know this would be very timely for me to attend masses and novenas. Bishop Chito Tagle's homily was touching. I would summarize some points:


Ang Diyos, loyal din sa mga taong loyal sa kanya. Ibibigay niya ang hinihingi natin sa tamang panahon.

Hello August!

2 comments
It's been a week! I missed the World Wide Web! This is my first post in August! Gahhh. The 8th month. Many believe that 8 is a lucky number! I hope the same goes for me! I'm really hoping that this is a good month.

Well, what I've been up to lately? I just finished a course in English Fluency Training. I enrolled not because I can't speak the language, but, I want to be MORE confident in speaking the universal language. It's the reason why I haven't blogged anything for a week, but now, I'm back! I'm very BACK! :))

Anyway, to all FA Hopefuls I have two good news for you! Cebu Pacific is opening its doors again for aspiring cabin crews! I suggest you go to the company's website and find the link CAREERS. Two, a friend told me there will be a Qatar Open Day in Manila this coming August 21! Good luck everyone! If you have questions re fa applications, don't hesitate to send me a message, your questions are most welcome! It's my pleasure to answer them even if I may not be the best person to be asked since I'm not a cabin crew YET (yes, I'm praying and hoping that my time will come soon!).

Part 2

THE CONTINUATION:

I passed BDO's exam last Thursday! The Accounting part was really hard for me because I didn't have any background of it. Anyway, my first interview with them was also last Thursday. I was given an application form and was asked to come back the next day, Friday. The job description of the position was also mentioned. I'd rather not say the position and the benefits they're giving. 

Friday, I thought there would be another interview, but we were instructed to have our medicals done at Biomedix - Robinsons Galleria. We're not yet hired. Our applications would still be under evaluation according to the HR. We're also advised that there would be a 2-3 weeks waiting period, but it's also possible that the result would come out earlier. 

Since last Thursday, I've had doubts of getting the job. Although I said, the job would be a 'temporary' one while I'm waiting for my dream career, I wanted to take into considerations the many aspects of the job and its benefits. I have no problems with the job as an entry level position even if I already have a previous work experience. I just have to be practical enough. I haven't completed the medicals. There's one requirement I haven't given yet. I don't think I'd push through with it. Anyway, I already told the HR that I have a pending application with another company and when she said so you're pushing through with it, I answered, I'm considering it.

I know, finding a job nowadays would be hard. I don't want to hurry or settle for anything I'd just regret in the end. I don't know,but I think, and as for my opinion, if you have doubts in getting something, weigh things first. It would be hard to force yourself to something you do not want to continue. I've learned my lessons. Just like what I've read in The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho:
Everything that happens once can never happen again. But everything that happens twice will surely happen a third time.

Part 1

THIS morning, while I'm preparing myself for the Wednesday's novena at Baclaran, an HR staff from Banco De Oro called me at our landline. She just asked a few questions and invited me for an interview tomorrow at their Greenhills building. I am advised to bring a copy of my resume so when I went to a mall with my mom, I asked her to buy two cartridges (black and colored) since the cartridges are already empty and fainted areas are all over the whole document when printed. While I'm doing a test print, the problem still persists. I continue clicking the head cleaning icon and printed the last part of my resume until a message appear telling me that my printer needs a service because a part inside the printer needs a replacement. Shoot! Add to this is the newly installed black cartridge which is now LOW. Errr. Thank goodness mom is not mad at me. hehe. I thought she's going to make a little sermon but I'm glad it turned the other way around since I told her right away that my printer needs a service :P

Back to BDO, I am going tomorrow. I'll be taking an exam too and their exam has an Accounting part. Goodluck to me! I don't have a background in Accounting or shall I say I have a little background but it has been years ago since I have been taught of it. I am a Mass Media graduate so what will you expect? Algebra 101 is the only Math subject in my entire college life!  I have some notes on Accounting during my BPI days but we did not have a thorough lesson on it. I'll just do whatever I can and entrust the rest to God.

Applying to BDO does not mean I am giving up my dream of becoming a cabin crew. Like what I've mentioned in one of my previous posts, I need a temporary job that will help me pursue my application. Its costly to apply for the cabin crew position because there are things where you have to invest in like the suit and make up. A suit may cost you more than a thousand bucks. Well,when it comes to make up, it depends on the brand, but I don't think your P500 will suffice.
Tomorrow, I'll be waking up early to apply for a job I consider "temporary". I am really serious on pursuing my dream of becoming a cabin crew and I will not give up until I am 35. I'm 22 now, still far from the max age limit. 

To be continued.

I have an interview by 3 PM with CSB for the research assistant/assoiate post. Last night, I made up my mind that I'd be attending the interview. I woke up 7:30 am. Opened my laptop so I could transfer the files I obtained from my old pc since I was instructed to bring a sample research and I don't have any research saved in my laptop. I was about to read the sample research only to realize that it was not complete. I remembered the complete file was with my partner (since we worked in pair). I don't have any more files here except for my thesis which was 170 pages and written in Filipino. While I was eating breakfast, I decided not to go anymore, maybe if I had a good sample research (in English) that I could present, I'd grab the chance. I know it's another missed opportunity but I still believe God would understand why I did not take the opportunity.

Seriously

2 comments
It's been a few days since my last update. I'm always sleepy or not in the mood to update. I've been spending the week for my swimming class, and surfing the net to check my: mail, facebook and look for part time jobs.

Speaking of part time jobs, as much as I would like to keep myself all available for future ODs, Screenings etc for the cabin crew position, I know I have to be practical. It's very costly to apply for that job. Imagine the amount of photos you have to submit; make up; the shoes; suit; and etc, I don't want to compute for everything! I realized, I have to work again, even for a part time or freelance job so I can support myself for all the things I need for future applications.  Sooner or later all of my resources will become ZERO if I will not do something. I know God will always guide me in whatever I plan to pursue for this moment. Certainly, God knows I will do everything for my dream job.

Why I did not blog for a week?

      

Monday     

I had to secure a police clearance which was a requirement for Asiana.  I asked mom to come with me to the police station.  When we got there, mom asked asked for the procedures. We were advised to pay first at the Municipal Hall. I had to get a new cedula because the one I brought was issued to me a year ago when I filed my ITR.  After paying, we went back to the police station to apply for the clearance. We know someone from the police station that's why I was not asked to stay after the last person on queue. I waited for I guess, 30 minutes or less. I was asked to come back the day after as I requested for a clearance for travel abroad. Uh oh! I thought it would be a problem because Cams and I agreed to go to TRI the next day. I was really wondering why I had to go back. I thought it would be released the same day. Our family friend said that their head was not around, so there was no one to sign for the clearance. There was no assurance that he would come back in the afternoon or up until the evening. I was hoping that everything would still turn out well. 
 
I went to the groceries with mom. Home, then prepared again and went to the mall to have my 3r and 2x2 pictures taken. I also bought some stuff I need. 
When I got home. Mom told me that my clearance would be available the next day. Oh no! Problem! But I'm thankful Cams understood that we could not apply early the next day because I still have to get the clearance. 

Tuesday
Applied for Saudia and Asiana. Will create a separate entry for my applications.

Wednesday
Went to an agency. I refused to name it. They don't handle any airline applications. I applied for an Online English Teacher a week ago because I want to have a part time job while pursuing my dream of becoming a flight attendant. It's a known fact that applying for an airline would be costly. You have to invest for a business attire, shoes (if in case you still don't have one), photos, make up, and so on. When I sent my resume to the email address written on the advertisement, I didn't know it was an agency. I have nothing against agencies for local employment, it's just that if ever I work here, I wanted to get hired directly by the company. Though I was quite hesitant to come over because I had a flu the night before, I still went to Ortigas for the interview. I was there at exactly 1 pm but I waited for more than an hour since the receptionist told me the interviewer was on lunch. Okay, Filipino Time! 


I was the second one who arrived, but I was the last one who was interviewed! Honestly, I was uncomfortable because I felt like I was chasing time. Every minute was important because I could not afford to miss the novena at Baclaran. 


My name was called after like 1 hour and 30 minutes. The interview did not last for so long. Everything was over around 3 pm. I was advised that the interview with the company was on the 27th, I said I could not come, they said I had to adjust for the company as they do not know when the next interview would be. Okay, so another problem, but I set it aside. 


I hailed a taxi going to Shangrila Mall and decided to ride the mrt instead of a bus going to Baclaran so I would be on time for the 4 pm novena. Everything went fine. I was able to find a seat before the novena started. In the middle of the novena, while everyone was kneeling, I felt like I was going to faint right then and there. I sat on the pew instead. Thank goodness I was able to handle myself, because if not, uhoh. 

After the novena, I went to MOA to spot for a new pair of shoes I could use for my applications. I decided to but a new one because my shoes always put me to trouble, haha. The bruise on my left knee was still here but I believe it would be gone by this week.,COMPLETELY GONE.  I went to Charles&Keith, VNC, CMG,CELINE and WADE, but had NO luck! Went home after that.

Thursday
I went to Zoe's office for a temporary job. I was seated the whole day doing clerical work. Thanks Zoe for the opportunity! :)


Friday
Watched Miss You like Crazy with Bryan and Jana. I was supposed to go to a salon after but had NO luck. I was not able to have my nails cleaned. I would not be elaborating much about the film in this entry. I would just make another one so I could have my review as well. 


Saturday


QR OD. Will have a separate entry for this one.

JOB EXPO and A Trip Down Memory Lane

0 comments
I was at DLSU yesterday with three other friends: Michi, Andre and Dave for the JOB EXPO. Michi just came home from her one year stay at Japan. Andre was already done with his 5 month-internship while Dave was on a search for his first job. Yesterday was not just looking for a job, it's more than that and the title could explain very well.

This would be a photo-loaded entry:
A view from La Salle Building. Still the same when I was there except for the condo beside Ivy Hills (the smallest building in this photo.)

Graduate Admissions Office.This used to be the Undergraduate Admissions office. I could remember the days I was still submitting my requirements (for transfer applicants. Yes, I was a transferee from St. Scholastica's College) . I took the entrance exam at the room upstairs they called ITEO.

With Dave  (oh! I look so pale! haha)
 

Yuchengco Building, on our eaf, this was known as the Y building. I could tag this as the most quiet building! haha. This was the irony of the Miguel Building (our building!). It would be understandable because the Miguel or M building was the "home" of the Liberal Arts Students. I used to have classes in this building. Most events were usually held here. Like the Annual Academic Recognition , at the "grandest" Teresa Yuchengco Auditorium to be exact; The Job Expo, held at the lobby. Exhibits were held at the lobby too. I could also remember attending an open forum at the auditorium where Loren Legarda and Nikki Coseteng were guests. The museum was located at the 2nd floor of this building.
The lobby was also one of the "tambayans" of the students. I used to hang out and kill time in this building!


The free nachos (plus the overflowing sauce)  Dave got after signing at the Nestle Booth. I didn't get mine because my stomach was still full then. 


A view from the Brother Connon hall. I took this photo while we're on our way to the Green&White office, where I'd be getting my Yearbook DVD. You could see the amphitheater where the University Break events were usually held.

Some reminders from the Discipline's Office or D.O. :   This was posted at Saint Joseph Hall going to the William Hall.

I was surprised to see this posted at a room (on Miguel Building) . It's a new addition.


I just want to know how it feels to be a student again by sitting inside the classroom where I used to have my classes. If my memory was right, I had four or more major subjects held in this room. And I used to sit in front then. Oh! I miss being a student!


M315. I miss this room so much! I think, I spent 1/4 of my DLSU days here. 

Freebies from Nestle! It's a good idea signing up for them! I love these:


Michi's gift! Thank you sis! My newest baby! :) 

 

My YEARBOOK CD! 


It's warm feeling to be in La Salle again. I would agree with Dave, when we're still students, we felt like going to school everyday was just ordinary, we haven't felt the great significance of La Salle in our lives, but after leaving school, getting a life on your own, and going back, you would feel that La Salle meant so much to you.

Sometimes, when we both reminisce, we'll both say, "There wasn't too much we missed" and through the tears we'll smile, when we recall, we had it all just for a moment. - St. Elmo's Fire

NOW

6 comments
My friend, Bryan, inspired me to blog upon reading his Multiply entry:
There are plenty of thoughts clouding in my mind right now. Even if I just came from Baclaran Church this afternoon, I really can't help but think about the things that are happening to me right now and think about the future. 

It's been two months since I became a BUM. Honestly, I hate being one, though I have nothing against people who does not have work right now like me. This is my choice anyway. Maybe, I'm feeling like this because I am not used to just staying at home, stay in front of my laptop for several hours, watch afternoon shows or start a dvd marathon, etc. etc. I am doing nothing at home except for logging at Jobstreet and putting more time looking for a job that I will like while I am chasing for my dream career. Sometimes, I feel like I'm wasting my time doing nothing but stay at home. What will I do? I mean, our backpay's not with us yet, and it is TAKING SO MUCH TIME!!! I cannot go out that much except for Wednesdays as I already alloted a budget for the novena. I feel like it will be too much if I ask my mom for money so I can hang out anywhere I want to go. 

Sometimes, I can help but feel bad in a way. I may have graduated with honors (but I'm not bragging about this), but I will agree with my friend, Lars, it's just numbers. Today, it doesn't matter where you came from, it's where you're heading. My high school friends also agreed with this. Correct me if I'm wrong readers, it's just my and my friends' opinion. At one point, I have this "what if".,I took up Nursing, maybe I'm in Canada right now, with my aunt who is working in a hospital. I hate "what ifs" because it's a form of regretting. I am well aware that:  we cannot bring back the past, but we can always make our future better. Regrets have no use because we can never turn back the hands of time. 


I am reading PEX everytime I surf the net because it's one way of updating myself on what's going on with other flight attendant hopefuls. I share the same sentiment with everyone who went to the pre-screening is waiting for the golden email - the waiting and the longing we have to endure. I have read that IPAMS will be sending the much awaited email until Saturday. I just don't want to expect and I don't want to think of anything negative about it. I want to put focus on centering God and trusting Him with my career. I can remember my friends telling me, "we expect more from you, not to put pressure on you but, to see you grow more! we want you to grow more", I told Bryan about this, and he said, "just take every opportunity". I know I really have to hold on to that faith I have for so long now, I've been very optimistic during my La Sallian days and I don't want to get that away. I can never give up my optimism because it has sprung from my faith in God. 


My airline applications as of this time are all unsuccessful, quite obvious, because if I have been a successful applicant in the past, I have gone to places already, but it's not the case. I don't know if this is what God wants me to be, again, everything is all about FAITH, if we think we can make it, then we shall act and not just wait. God sees everything and I know, He will give what our heart desires on the right time, just like what Joshua Harris mentioned, The Right thing at the Wrong time is the Wrong thing.

ABS - CBN, KAPAMILYA

4 comments
A while ago, I got a text message from Jobstreet:
 This was the exact message:

Interview Invitation: You have 1 interview request from ABS-CBN Broadcasting Corporation. Please check your email.
Okay, I was not expecting that. I did not apply to any position posted by ABS-CBN. I checked my email and read what they sent me.

Another to go or not to go dilemma. If I would say YES to this, I have to re-sched the last day of my driving lessons. If I would say YES, I also have the OPTION to change the date of my interview so that I could finish my lessons on Tuesday. I kept bugging my friends about this, and even my mom. They all said "Why don't you try?". Think. Think. Think. Another opportunity! I knew Lord made this one possible. The saying was right, sometimes, things come unexpectedly and that's what I got today.

None of us knows what the next change is going to be, what unexpected opportunity is just around the corner, waiting a few months or a few years to change all the tenor of our lives. -  Kathleen Norris
