All details of orders are on the CX website, so you can see we only order the ER version.

Krashman - PM me and we can swap notes and try and work it all out!

Hi guys!

I just got a call from CX to do the Stage 1 assessment later this month. It seems like the procedures have changed quite a lot from the previous posts. Does anyone know the latest selection procedure?

Right now they start off with job knowledge test, reasoning test, personality test, general + technical interview.

felt like the old stage 1 and 2 combined

What licence do cadets gain on completion in Adelaide?

Also, if anyone here could shed some light on the content of the 12 week transition training course it would be gratefully recieved.

Thanks,

VFE.

Yes I am an international applicant. I've had a profile CX HR for several years. I've tried to constantly update it every six months or so. Sometimes I've been early sometimes late.

Initial interview

Hey guys,

Just a quick question to anyone who has previously attended the initial interview. They say 'please bring the original and a photocopy of the following documents along to the interview'. Within this list they mention all logbooks. Do they actually want a photocopy of the whole logbook......every single page or just the last few maybe??

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this cause I'll have to do some major photocopying otherwise.

Thanks guys,

Dangerman

Initial interview

Does anyone have a copy of 'Preparing for your cathay pacific interview' 11th edition that they would be interested in selling? Preferably on the North American continent.

Sydney SO interview

Hi guys,

I got a Sydney interview for SO 1st stage cadet ship with CX in July. Is anyone else out there attending around then?

Studying basic technical questions and researching HK, done about 15 hours dual and gone solo. From your experience, does anyone out there have any questions from stage 1 that have been asked recently?

That would be great help
