Qantas have been excepting expressions of interest for f/a for some time. Not sure if they are activly recruiting at the moment.
I attended group and panel interviews earlier this year [ group in Apr, panel in Jul]
Recieved e-mail soon after the panel to advise me that I had been successful through the panel interview, however no positions are likely to become available until mid 2006. It went on to say my application would be held untill the end of Feb 2006 then I will be contacted re: medical, reference check etc.
No mention though of short haul, long haul,fixed term or m.a.m.
Who knows what may happen???
