My thoughts exactly...
If thats your mentatlity, you will do just fine here. Do your job, lay low, do not create any waves and you will have a good time here.
I can even say more...people who do this often get all they want. Fleet transfers, ratings, nice shedules etc. Try too hard and this company will bite your a*! with avengence!
Regarding the changing interview process. Not too many details known yet, but it will become a lot more difficult. More to be compared with the EK and CX recruitment process.
But hey, this will not be active untill end october I would say.
Regarding Qatar....for most people it becomes a love-hate relationship. Its a sinusoide with a three month frequency of ups and downs. You will like it, get bored, go take a breath of fresh air somewhere far away, come back after two weeks and be happy again....
It defenitely is NOT a place for bachelors, as there is absolutely nothing to do for them. For families and friend-orientated people it can be very good. BBQs, boat trips, desert trips etc, all overloaded with alcohol if thats your thing!
Its what you make of it yourself...
