On hold
To everyone thinking of Cathay. Non local Second Officer recruitment has been on hold for around 8 months and isn't due to start again until well into next year. You also have to remember that when recruiting for non HKID card holders was suspended, there were people who had been waiting for flight grading for 8 months and other who hadn't got a flight grading date even. So even when they do decide to start again they will have a backlog of about 100 or so people to get through first.
Even if you get an interview tomorrow, it will be at least 12 months just to get a flight grading spot.
