Singapore Scoot Airline, a long haul budget carrier could begin it’s services as early as June this year. Scoot Airlines have revealed that they have already recruited the 51 pilots they needed. The pilots – 26 captains and 25 first officers – will undergo training soon. It has also hired half of its 240 cabin crew staff that it requires.

Singapore Scoot Airline revealed that they received a thousand online applications for its first of three mass recruitment drives for cabin crew. Scoot is open to recruiting candidates without prior experience as long as they fit the “Scootitude” criteria. One of the candidates, Ms Nicole Yang said: “I have the Scootitude – good attitude and a big smile.” And that took all of a five-hour process to prove.

Candidates were first tested on their verbal and mathematical skills, followed by a problem-solving task as a group, while their every move is assessed by staff from Scoot. After that is a test on public-speaking. Candidates face a final round of interviews before being informed on the same day if they made the cut. In the first recruitment drive, only about one in two candidates were offered a job.
