More along of the lines of Biscuit Chucker's post the QF cabin crew website "Galley Gossip" states on 28 July 2003 "
Question: : Is there likely to be any longhaul intakes this year?
Answer: "There are currently no intakes or divisional transfers planned into long haul for the remainder of this year."
Furthmore I have not seen anything internally as yet either which is a concern as the only time they recruit internally is when they have permanent positions available. When the November recruitment occured they anticipated permanent recruitment maybe this time around with all the talk from Dixon NO permanent positions will be available maybe its just casual and fixed term. But as Biscuit Chucker mentioned no one really knows whats happening. But any sign of recruitment is good.
