Which group of recruits was flown down to S.A this month?

Hey guys,Im alittle perplexed by something,..the first group to attend interviews this year has 2 batches,the 1st batch are undergoing the medicals and the 2nd just recieved results of their psychomotor,and are preparing for their medicals right?The KQ website has a press release stating that they sent a group of 8 people down to S.A apparently recruited this year..anyone with an idea who the 8 guys are or are some of the posts regarding the interview this year incorrect?Anyone care to enlighten me?

Captain am also perplexed bout the group sent down SA coz the last intake was kitambo. am also not aware of 2nd group having their psychomotor test results coz some applications are terminated while others are active but NO communication from KQ for the medicals. or maybe the number 8 of the ones sent to SA is a hint of the number they require this time round?

14th March Psychomotor test

I was among the 24 who did the psychomotor test on monday of this week and of yet i have not received any feedback from KQ, my other three friends haven't either...so its either none of us qualified or these guys are into sardistic torture by way of anxiety. Someone....anyone out there who's heard from them....or are we alone?

Thanks Chico

Hey Chico,thanks.You're right,they were told to wait to go to 43 last year and were supposed to head to school in Jan this year but were delayed..I guess I read the press release wrongly.Have a nice day and enjoy yourselves,goodluck to those doing the interview.

Finals

It's all over now i suppose. After the last medical yesterday, the lung function test, It's as if we all got good test results. We are still 9 of us, I don't know if we will do the oral interviews, but at this stage I guess we are through, at least that's what I am told by some students in SA. I don't know how the number will hit the 14 mark, but maybe KQ might have to recall some interviewees.

Medicals

Some of those who did the Psychomotor test on March 14th have received feedback. The rest of us we hope until we are told bluntly that we didn't make it

Are there any [early] March applicants who have received the invitation yet? Or better, anybody with information about when the next batch will be called in?
Thanks.

Hi, I think you should just wait because they have not called in another group for interviews. You will probably know through this forum when they start calling the next group.

@Cpt kirk........don't worr.just be patient.they will call you.
@Cpt maina...........the maximum age is 24 so you are eligible.you will be contacted.
If there's anything this KQ applications and interviews is the need for patience,confidence and preparedness.KQ are good at mental torture........the waiting....oh God!All the best to all those waiting to be called.

nope.just make sure your online application is active and also edit your academic qualifications.no attachments needed.don't be nervous,I am sure you will be called for the interviews soon.always remember to place your trust in God and to do the best you can in everything you do leaving the rest to Him.
