Citilink Indonesia Recruitment Process

 Hi everyone, maybe I'll make a label of my post recently, because everything about airlines. haha lol :D

Beside that, I was join Citilink Indonesia recruitment,Citilink is a subsidiary of Garuda Indonesia. I've tried Garuda Indonesia last year actually, but failed in the medical check up. So, the process of Citilink Indonesia are :

1. Walk in Interview
There are a lot of people who join this recruitment, if I'm not mistaken, I compete with 1000 around people in that time. It was a tired day, I arrived at 07.30 AM but I get inside to performance test is around 01.00 PM, tiring right? Performance test, they will measure your weight and your height based on BMI (body mass index). Then if you are meet their requirement, you'll be in process to another step, which is Interview with the user. Process interview is so so, just introduce yourself and they will asking about yours (activity, occupation, reason, etc). Tips are just confidence with your self, tell them about yourself. But basically, you must always put your best smile on your face. :)

2. Psychotest



If you pass the interview, you'll be in the next step. Psychotest's tips is only prepare yourself,
enough sleep and rest enough before the test, don't stay up late in the night before. Before you go, eat your breakfast, please don't say you don't want eat breakfast first because you're afraid that the weight will be increase immediately, no hunny, they don't check your weight on this stage. So, make sure you're in a god condition and fullfil your tummy with enough food, so you can do your test with good.



3. Background Check



The test is being held in GMF, Soekarno Hatta. You must provide your original documents and its copy. Don't ever make falsifications of your documents. You must bring your original birth certificate, card identity, original education certificate, permit letter from your parents, reference letter from your company (if you have a job at that time), criminal records certificate, and confirmation letter. So many right? Make it in one map together and put your photograph there. Actually, they just check your document to make sure your original documents, you'll also have a written test. Don't worry if you read the company and your background knowledge of your country, you can do your test. The recruiter will ask you after you done with your written test. My experience, just make it simple, answer all the question with polite and proper. If your documents are complete and you can answer the questions with good, don't be afraid, just pray harder :)

4. Pantuhir



Yes, Pantuhir in Bahasa is Penentuan Akhir. You'll be interviewed by the Directors or Vice Presidents of Citilink Indonesia. The candidate will enter the room one by one. There are 3 interviewer in the room, make sure your make up is still good and tidy up your clothes. They'll ask you to walk with and without shoes. Then, the main part is ... You'll get a lot of question, actually its very basic and common question, but they will ask you again and again based on your answer. Like Why? How? Which one? Tell us! something like that. haha. But it was so fun, I didn't get nervous too much because I know when I get so nervous everything become mess up. So good luck, never stop pray! 

5. Medical Check Up


Viola! Here is the last step recruitment for Citilink Cabin Crew, if you don't have any serious illness or disease, just prepare your body, I know I failed in Garuda Indonesia last year because my hemoglobin is less than their standard, my hb was around 11,4/11,4, they need 12. If you have a medical examination, drink the mineral water so many, drink pure milk (I drink BearBrand), rest and sleep enough, eat vegetables and fruits as much, I prefer eat the natural food then the supplement or something like that, then make sure your eyes is normal, I mean you don't have minus above 2. This stage is located in Balai Kesehatan Penerbangan Kemayoran different with Garuda Indonesia.

I was join the walk in interview on March, 2015 but the whole step are really take a long time, so it takes 3 months until the last test. What about the result? Will tell you soon, promise! :)

Hajj Cabin Crew Recruitment

Air Atlanta Icelandic is ACMI service providers (Airlines, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance) which looking for a cabin crew for Hajj Season. The process are really simple and fun, we just send the email to Airborne Personnel. The selected one will get the invitation to attend the interview and English test I told you guys, the HR team of Air Borne Personnel are really really really nice and fun. I remember Mrs. Helga, Mrs. Ann, and others are really really a kind person. I don't know why but when I was interviewed, I feel like I am talking with a mother whose warm heart and nice. Hihihi. Maybe I just remember my mom.

I come to Sultan Hotel, Jakarta, to attend this interview. All of us need to re-registration in the front desk of a meeting room. I forgot the name, but there is a woman who are ex-cabin crew in Air Atlanta, she is Indonesian. She give the attendance list so we can fill and sign it. I was excited at that time, maybe I'm a bit excessive, I am so happy looking the AAI team, I like hear English accent from the European People. Maybe, because I love watching Harry Potter. (hahaha, ok its not related)

The process are :
1. Submit CV to email
2. Invitation for Interview



3. Re-registration in the front desk


4. English Test
Promise, it is not too difficult. They give 20 question in multiple choice and an essay with a topic (only 100 words if I'm not mistaken ). We took the test around 1 hour, or maybe less. We go outside the room to wait the result. Then they shouted the name who didn't passed the test (but they really polite, with call them to a small meeting room, they didn't announced the result in front of all candidates)
5. Interview
I was interviewed by Mrs. Sila if I'm not mistaken. She is really nice and have a beautiful eyes indeed. Hehe. She always smile and staring at me very warm. The question basically just want to know about us and personality. She ask what is the main reason of me want to be a cabin crew, what is my current job, how can I handle the stress or situation, what is the saddest and the happiest part in my life, are you ready to work abroad and live so far from home, what do you know about Saudi Arabia (of course as a Muslim I know this place), what do you know about Air Atlanta Icelandic (wannabes, I tell you, if you want to apply a job in a company, make sure you know what and where the company is, googling and read as much as you can, so they know that you try the best)

After the English test done, the candidates who passed this stage will get a briefing and introduction about AAI. What we will do and prepare towards, and they told us about the salary and benefits. After whole stage in that day, they will give us an email of our result. The person who success and pass the test have to send the background documents like curriculum vitae, copy passport, criminal records, academic transcript and certificate, company/institution/school which we work or study in there around 5 recent years.

Then about the result, I'll give you the updates later :*

with Love
