Hi Everyone
I am an external shortlister and I too received a call from QF HR and has been offered same as everyone else thus far. I have accepted the potential offer hoping for 10 months I will gain some wonderful experiences. However, if I had a great full time airline job like Cloud Nine, I would not hesitate in declining the offer. We all have to prioritise our needs and work out what is most important to us.
The one problem I would have is if QF was to use crew on contracts to be 'strike breakers' as Galley Hag suggested. Let's just hope it won't get to that.
I just wish that the whole dragged out saga ends sooner than later and both internal and external shortlisters can have a positive outcome.
Keep the faith everyone!
