Part 2 - I wanna be a pilot!! But, HOW??

Let us continue from the previous post of "I wanna be a pilot!! But, HOW??"

Now you guys should be cleared with the private way (straight to the academy by making your payment up) and it is a No-go for those financial problem pilot wanna be.

Don't give up!
There's a dream, there's a will;
There's a will, there's a determination;
There's a determination, there's a motivation;
There's a motivation, there's an action;
and there you go for your ambition.

"Apply to the airlines"

Here you solve your financial problem. Send you application to airlines with the cadet pilot position. Attach with your relevant documents ( CV, education cert., pictures,...)

Competition:
Well, same procedures go to how you can get your JPA scholarship - A though competition.
Bear in mind, you are not the only in this world who wants to be a pilot!
Human nature~ When we are over stable on the land, we wish to stable in the sky; When the land is flooded/earthquake then we wish to be stable on the land. Isn't it?! XD
Therefore, a tough competition is a must that you have to go through it. Psychometric test, psychomotor test, checking your english,physic(science),maths,interview, medical check up,...Well, all these are depends on the airlines itself. It is be seperated to few "stages".

Final..:
Once you get it (pass every single stages), you will then be called up/receive an email. So make sure all your contact ways are fully reachable.
If you failed it *touch wood*, face the fact and keep trying,ok?! No harm and you gain experience in answering. =)

Pros:
1. Airlines will pay behalf of you. You will be having no worries in paying such a lump sum for yout piloting fees especially those with financial problem/cant afford 1...
2. Job is secured. Contract is there.
Though human sometime tends to be like..I'm a pilot now, I have the experience now and I wish to go to other airlines because their offer is nicer. But please... Before you making that move, appreciation who makes you achieve your dream. At least finish servicing the contract 1st,k?! Bring out your appreciation.
3. For sure that, right after you grad., you will be trained to fly the jet.

Cons:
1. Be bonded. (But look at the positive side, don't always be so negative ;) )
2. It takes 6 months-24 months(the longest time i have seen from my friends due to backlog) to finish all the stages. So make sure you utilize and plan your time well.

Airlines in Malaysia which will take in cadet pilot is : Malaysia Airlines(MH) and AirAsia(AK)

To check out when will the airlines having the intake,
normally via 1. The Star Newspaper (Malaysia newspaper) , 2. Jobstreet/jobmonster/.... 3. Airlines website.
