Hoping for mature responses when you've just joined pprune 5 minutes ago was optimistic.

The information that was stale on here is probably because QF haven't recruited since 2008. Obtaining a job at either company is difficult and the way you've written that question is the reason you got the responses you did. It basically assumes you could get either job in a heartbeat. But I'll bite...

QF - no one that even works for them currently would have any idea of what progression will look like until the dust settles. There's a reason there is 52 pages on the prune about QF recruitment - it's because a LOT of people want to work for them.

JQ - 5-6 days a week, 4 sector days, no overnights, circa 180k if you do work days off etc. (anyone from JQ feel free to jump in here). I jumpseated with a Captain who was heading back to the mothership that said he couldn't have worked with a better bunch of people.

Both EBA's are available on fairwork.
