The Whole Thread
This whole thread contains the answers to your questions.
Those questions are also answered in the description in the page of the "Cadet Pilot Programme" on the Cathay Pacific site.
I'm going to be honest, so forgive my unfriendliness but those are (one of) the laziest questions that this thread has had.
This thread was created to share experiences and answer specific but slightly of higher level questions, mostly aviation related at the beginner level.
Those questions could've been asked early in the beginning times of this thread but, now that ain't gonna cut it, there has been very little changes to the selection process of the Cadet Pilot Programme since then. If there are any changes, we will discuss it.
