Influence of KDRs on Hiring
Hello,
A question to those employed in Australian commercial aviation (Qantas, Jetstar, Virgin, etc...)
I currently hold an RPL which I passed when I was 16 and am now in year 12 tossing up between swinburne and rmit aviation courses. I failed my first attempt scoring 66% with 12 points of knowledge deficiency and passed second try just scraped the pass mark by 1% (71%) with 6 points of knowledge deficiency. Somehow in my pass attempt I mucked up both Takeoff and Landing charts which count 3 marks each, which was interesting as I managed to not stumble here in my first attempt and after the test I completed 4 more identical questions which I sent off to my CFI who said I had no troubles, but this is besides the point.
I've always wondered if these KDRs will come back to haunt me when I apply for a job eventually, I understand I may be thinking irrationally about this situation as it was not my ATPL subjects but I wonder how much do KDRs effect you eligibility as a commercial pilot?
Thanks.
