Wannabe's...
QCCA recruitment has started!!!!! Recruitment Days are planned for the end of this month.. A total of 600 crew needed, 200 per new aircraft (a380) which will start rolling out online toward the end of this year.
TeamJQboy... Typically speaking they will recruit locally for the bases..ie for Sydney Base, the recruitment days will be held in Sydney and for Melbourne Base, in Melbourne. (or at least this was how it was done in 2008) When you filled out your application form, you would've selected the base you would like in order of preference. If you selected Melbourne and have been offered a recruitment day in Sydney, there must be no scope for recruitment in Melbourne at the current time. If successful, never rule out the possibility of commencing in the Sydney Base and at a later date transferring to the Melbourne Base if the opportunity arises.
CruisyCabinChick.. Good Question!!! Both companies are seperate subsidiaries of Qantas Airways LTD, so I believe you can still apply. However, just check the website for FAQ's as the embargo may be placed on all cabin crew positions with the QF group (although I highly doubt it)

Over the past 6 months a number of QCCA crew have expressed their interest in either transferring permanently or temporarily to QCD.
Almost 3 weeks ago, an email was sent out to those crew advising there are a limited number of positions for QCCA's at QCD. Those interested were asked to express their interest and positions will be allocated in order of those that wish to; go to the Perth base either permanently or temporarily for 2 years, those that want a permanent position in either Sydney or Melbourne and then finally, to those that wish to take 2 years LWOP from their current position to operate from either the Sydney or Melbourne base..
Those that wish to take 2 years LWOP will be issued a new staff number and will have their staff travel frozen for 2 years meaning to get J class travel will take 9 years instead of 7...Those going permanently will be provided with a new staff number, however years of service will be recognised for Long Service Leave purposes.
