Havick,

I read your previous posts and i'm aware you're flying there for a while now and appreciate your feedback.

I spoke to recruitment today by phone, to verify the educational requirement side of thing, and the lady said,
an applicant needs a Bachelor degree or nine years work experience.
(General E3 requirement by consulate)

Any Bachelor degree will meet the educational side of things to get the visa from the consulate, with the
airline's assistance.
A Bachelor degree and meeting the ATP hour minimum's, as listed by the company advertisements,
is all that's needed to apply

Apparently applicants are experiencing problems getting the E3, without the degree.

A Bachelor degree is a 3 year course (online or campus), there's an aviation Bachelor degree that's available in Australia.
The High school diploma or GED, is for local US applicants that hold an FAA ATPL.

I've read the previous posts where applicants, had no Bachelor degree and no 6 or 9 years flying industry experience,
but still got the E3.

The above is the feedback i received today.
