As previously said by others, you get a written letter of intent from Qlink upon completion of the first interviews offering employment after the succesful completion of the dash endo. The actual dash endo is around $17700 after been subsidised, play your cards right and talk to your accountant and its actually a deductable expence. I decided to do the course and Im up at sunstate halfway throug my training, #%!@# good flying and great crew, stick around and watch the industry take of boys. You dont need the dash endorsement before applying but need the endo before you are actually employed by Qlink...weird i know
