I will ask him.
I have other info from him about pay, conditions etc. that DO apply to all.
You can be promoted from SO in 18 months.
The max time as SO is 4 years, of which your pay goes up by 50K annually, which starts at 422k a year. A lot compared to what most people in their early 20s earn.
You will be captain by the 12th year of employment, earning a minimum 1.2m annually.
You will be senior captain by the 14th year of employment. Payment increases until you earn 1.8m after 15 years.
You earn superannuation of 15.5%.
Education support for children in HK.
Medical insurance.
Share in company profits.
etc.
Plus, the money you earn from CX isn't your only source of revenue. Share dividends can earn tens of thousands of dollars a year if you invest correctly.
Don't be intimidated by what these clowns are going on about. I have talked with people who are on the board of CX! They resort to outrageous claims that "oh CX lie to us" etc. That's not a legitimate point in an argument.
I am going to apply for that Cadetship, and I hope like hell that I get it as it is a great opportunity that I don't want to slip by, and neither should anyone of you reading this post.
