There is some method in their madness though... I am sure.
I know of a guy who went to first and second interviews then was told "no thanks apply again in 12 months." Then they called him about two months later for another first interview. He was again told "no thanks." About two ro three months later he again asked to go to a first interview. Again it was "no thanks." Then he was called a month after that and asked for anoth first interview. Got a second interview too and was again told "no thanks." Four rounds of interviews from one application and he got a letter telling him to apply again in 12 months each time!
If you people can work that one out you deserve a medal. How traumatised would you be if you were that guy!
juliet-
12 months is the standard time until you reapply. Having said that you can slip through the system quite easily I am told.
Cart-tart-
I reckon you guys deserve some sort of perks. I have a friend that works out of Darwin so I know that you all work hard and represent Qantas very well. I mean you should all be given staff travel as a reward for doing so well. I have flown a couple of sectors on NJS (I even flew on the first DRW-GOV-CNS flight in August 1991) and Qantas is very lucky to have you guys. Such high professional standards.
Now that Impulse is wholly owned I think it was hard for the QF group to not give us travel benefits. Unfortunately they are 'benefits' and not a 'right'. Sucks though. And is it still the case that the girls on the Dash 8 charter contract don't get travel on NJS operated flights?
