THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MILITARY MAINTENANCE CREW & CIVIL MAINTENANCE CREW

I get the idea to write this post as I get the opinion for career jobs when I came to LIMA'17. So, I decided to write a post about the difference between military maintenance crew & civil maintenance crew in this field.

The Common About Both Sides

1. They have same academic background.
2. Their job scope are same as they are repairing the aircraft.

The Difference Between Both Sides

1. Their training requirement are totally different. For the civil one, we just to pass all the paper exam, gain all the working schedules, then pass the interview from NAA. But for the military, they just need to go to course to get training from aircraft manufacturer for the specific types of aircraft.
2. The salary difference also very big. It is because as the civil one, we gain our salary by consider type-rating we have, the position of job in company and also overtime. But for the military, they pay you by consider your military rank.
3. The job scope are slightly different between both sides. We can only repair the aircraft based on the type-rating we got and they need to fix any types of military aircraft. We can understand that their jobs are quite heavy.
4. The status of aircraft maintenance engineers are very big difference in both sides. For the example, we as the technicians, we get orders from them. But for the military side, technicians get the jobs done by themselves and the engineers just get report from them. From here, we know that the jobs of engineer in military are quite easy compare to civil side.
5. The experience you will gain also different in each side. If you go to military, you can get a lot of experience as you need to face any difficulty in military. After you get retired from military and go to civil sides, you should be can easily to get jobs.

That all from me for post. I want to thank all the military personnel who gave the information about these when I met them in LIMA"17.

MY FIRST INTERVIEW FOR ENTERING AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE WORLD

In this post, I will share about my experience for my first interview for entering this course. My main target of this post is for anyone has interest to join this course in anywhere and who want to pass through the interview. This post maybe will have some long so be patient to see it completely. I will tell my interview story from A to Z and share some tips with it. So, let us start... NOW.

Before The Interview

You guys and girls as locals should know the procedure of apply public institution, right? So, I will not talk details about applying UPU online. About two week before the interview's date, I get the letter to ask me go to interview for this course at POLIMAS which located at KEDAH state of Malaysia. So, until here, you guys and girls where I come from, right?

Next, I share about the venue for interview during my time for your knowledge. During two years ago, all of us had been interviewed in different place. Now, I am not sure are they doing it in the same place. I will share the venue in the below.

NORTHERN MALAYSIA

MIDDLE MALAYSIA

SOUTHERN MALAYSIA

SARAWAK REGION

THESE INTERVIEW VENUE DURING MY TIME. FOR THE EAST MALAYSIA SIDE, I AM NOT VERY SURE AS MY CLASSMATES ALL FROM PENINSULAR MALAYSIA. FOR THE INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS, YOU GUYS AND GIRLS ALSO CAN APPLY FOR THE DIPLOMA AND DEGREE COURSES IN A FEW POLYTECHNIC.

During The Interview

I go the venue just on time during that time as I remembered. After go through registration procedure, all of the candidates were taking pre-test in the hall. I still remember that test paper was about SPM level Mathematics. Guys and girls, you all need to prepare well in Mathematics and Physics as they are fundamental of this course.

After the test, we all gathered in the library for the interview session. During that scene, I managed to meet with my future classmates, Mahsyar, Elroy and Syeh. I want to say lucky or not, I entered the room with Mahsyar and another girl that we will not met again until right now. My interview group met the lecturers which were quite serious expression. They asked us about to introduce ourself (this is of course need to do in any interview), tell about ambitious toward future, ask about technical terms for the aircraft and how we should get this Aircraft Maintenance course which offered by government. I am still remember what reason I give to that lecturer until right now I can write a post about this event to you guys and girls.

After The Interview

In the beginning, I got the offer letter for programming course in Polytehcnic Balik Pulau, Penang state of Malaysia (My second choice for study was IT related course). I thought I lost my chance to this course. The situation continued to a few days later, I got the phone call form Jabatan Pendidikan Politeknik, one of the division of the Ministry of High Education, Malaysia.

These were my interview experience.

My Advice To The Interview Candidates

At there, I give my personal advice to all of you which may help you guys and girls in interview.

1. Please be prepare yourself in physical and mental before the interview.
2. Please be punctual on time when you are joining the interview.
3. You should be dress in formal and properly during the interview.
4. Try to get the good first impression from the interviewer.
5. You all should be have self-confidence in whatever event.
6. Try to act politely with the interviewer.
7. Try to gain their interest to you when interview.
8. You show the altitude that you really interested in the interview.

In the conclusion, maybe someone will give the comment that these are just nothing but I can said that if you maintain the advice I gave, I am sure that you can be success in any interview as these are the most basic thing to follow. THANK YOU.
