Domestic recruitment is likely for ADL or PER
QCCA international needs careful scrutiny
Pay
Destinations
Time at home
Hours worked per roster
Dont let the stars get in your eyes.The job has changed over the last few years.Pay is lower than it used to be.Sometimes you only get two days at home between trips.Most sectors are longhaul(13hrs plus).Slip time in DXB for example is 17hrs.QCCA has three destinations at present:HKG DXB LAX
You can be rostered up to 240hr/56 day Bid period.
If you havent travelled much the first year can be the best and the worst .
Sleep deprivation.More chest infections/colds than you've had in your life.Skin problems.Eye infections.Processed aircraft food.
Go in with your eyes wide open.Especially if you already have a well paid job.
Sorry dont mean to be negative just honest
Domestic is the way to go.Less Stress on your body.You can always move over to mainline/longhaul later.Generally the pay is better also
