I recently heard a rumour that a friend of a friend in a similar situation applied, was put through the interview process (supposedly passed it?) and was then told he would go in the hold pool till he had 3,000hrs before they will consider him for type rating. Does anyone know how much truth there is to this?
It would seem strange for EK to put someone through a full interview process in DXB with the intention of putting them in a hold pool for 1+ years.
Any feedback would be much appreciated, thanks.
I can't understand this. They do know you are approaching the full 2000hrs do they?
