And what about it now?
I must say, to accommodate new joiners, it all depends on there needs, there planning, there available training rooms and instructors. I’ve been through all these different process, I’ve seen it by my eyes, and in my case it was straight forward: Finale Interview, medical, contract signed, I already knew my departure date to DOH, there was no delay, and everything went perfectly well, without any nasty surprise.
Working with Qatar is a challenge that will improves you as a person. You’ll discover your limit, and you’ll know until which point you can go. Some will enjoy the ride, others less, and some others will quite or jump ship somewhere. And that happened so many times! There are lots of negative points that you may read concerning QR in PPrun, and yes some are perfectly true, but some are quite exaggerated also, like saying it’s a harsh living: I won’t agree with that. It all depends on how you see things, your personality, and how you conceder life! If you can’t take 45C°, 80% humidity, discipline ( even if it’s a stupid discipline most of the time, like if we were kids ), long flight, difficult passengers, then you may find it harsh. It’s different then Madrid, and expect a change in your life. However, if you are an easy going person, ready for challenges and adventures, and having a goal in your life, then I would say that you’ll be in the right place. I’ve been there for few years and know quite a lot about the company, so I think that I know what I am talking about.
I can say that today, QR needs a lot’s of crew, and for those who have been taken, they will definitely get back to you. Just be patient, and get ready for some serious stuff, and like everything it has it’s positive, and negative side, all depending on what you want : So get the most of it, and then if you want, you can get out of there.
That was my two S’ns !
