Main thing I can tell you, is that there isn't any SO recruitment at CX until further notice. They were just starting to get the recruitment ball rolling again after the Sep 11th setbacks and then SARS absolutely knocked the wheels off. They had to cancel about half their schedules at one stage last month, they're starting to resume services but there are still LOADS of parked widebody jets cluttering up the taxiways at CLK, and by all accounts there's still a pretty high risk of redundancies in the short term unless they can get load factors up from their pitiful present level.
Two of my mates were at second interview stage and got phoned and cancelled last month, no word from CX as to when they might get it back on track but no one is holding out for much before the end of the year.
You might get a better response if you post in the FH forum.
