Just to take note that SQ does not take in Direct Entry FOs as they have their
own supply from their cadet pilot programme. At the moment they have excess
FOs in their ranks and have stopped recruitment for Ab initios as well. As a complimentary measure SQ is encouraging FOs to take no pay leave to Qatar, Eva etc. In the past they have recruited DECs on rare instances but the latest is that they are not renewing expat contracts anymore. Hope that helps
