Training timeline
Don't have much info (friend of a friend kinda thing) but I believe it was about 1 month between job acceptance & start of ground school, and ground school took 7 weeks from day 1 to graduation. Then, as I mentioned, flying within a week. No idea how long the actual recruitment took though…I guess everyone is different but based on those dates you would be looking at AT LEAST 3 months between intital contact from QF to first flight - if you are lucky enough to be flying that soon after graduation!
