IMHO all is Not Lost...

I recently (days ago), received a Document from someone at Qantas Group:

And I qoute:

Quote:
Progression to Qantas*
* Qualifying period of 2-years applies before progression to Qantas is available, some conditions apply
This has been available since April/May 2007 and those 'conditions' involve all testing again (psych/skills then sim and interview). The only difference between this and DE employment is that some concessions are made in one area of the applicants choice which bias' the overall application on the competitive scale. On top of this, FT-9 scores from all cyclics are taken into consideration which, in a sense, makes it harder than DE employment.

This isn't the progression the guys in Qlink are looking for. True progression involves none of the above - just years of service and then straight to a ground school.
