Sad to say this does not work. My husband is indeed an MD of such firm but guess what, we go rejected. I used to work for pwd (not sure what it's call now) where I'm placed to take care of 15 schools' estate management matters. Given these in our application, we still got rejected..

OIC... I think the sch OM saw your application and threw into the bin... else the OM will lose his job.

yeah, that's what i thot too!

btw, I found Maris Stella's website had some content regarding the activities of PV, expected timing if you do PV and etc.


So far, none of the schools website that I've browsed gave such details.
I thot that was superb!

Hi Parents,

I understand you would need to personally fill up a form at the school to apply for PV. Things have really changed.

missymorr,
I guess the part which is toughest to fill up is on what you can offer ?
If I can register my daughter in SCGS, that would be great bcos it's much nearer home.

yes u r right.. its like making me sit down in front of the sheets of papers thinking.. wat can i offer???

Professional? You mean the way they dressed up or the way they talk?

3CsMom - the way they present themselves and dressed, when i went for the interview, i was alone and dressed in a top and jeans but most of them are well dressed and guys are in shirts and pants and best one of them brought a thick file with own laptop :roll:

Hubby & I weren’t interviewed b4 we were chosen as PVs…acceptance was based on the email we sent in…although rejected earlier. We met the principal together with 3 other couples regarding our ‘job responsibilities’ and when we will start chalking up hours…all of us dressed casually in jeans and tees.
