SIA overwhelmed by number of applicants

This was the first SIA walk-in cabin crew interview in Singapore after 3 years. All the interviews before this one (30 July 2022) was through online application. So one can imagine the excitement generated by the cabin crew hopefuls who were at MBS on 30 July morning. Some were there queuing long before registration began at 8:30am.
The response was so overwhelming that SIA decided to carry forward part 2 of the interview to another date. Cabin crew were shorthanded. They did not expect such a huge turnout. I suspect the number of applicants must be almost a thousand.
Who dare say that young Singaporeans frown upon the flying job?
