more waiting
 
I too applied in April & still waiting for that email. I think my patience is also turning into anxiety. Those who may have more information, kindly update us.

I will go for the interview.. Do you have the completion letter? When do you expect to graduate

Iman007 check your private mail.

March, April and June applicants.
 
It looks like the above-mentioned are the same ones who got the random email in June and for some reason haven't received their invitation email. My patience had worn completely thin by last evening, so earlier this morning I gave HR a call. It took quite some time to get through but I eventually did and the response I got was least helpful, in my opinion. The lady sternly explained to me that it was against company policy to disclose their recruitment procedures. So she "reassured" me that the process is free and fair since it's done online and that I should be patient. She also said that she'll pass my concerns to the people concerned with the shortlisting.

My prayer is that they're calling in batches and that we'll be invited by Friday. I can't imagine having to wait some more months for the invite! Let's keep hope alive!

Chege you say "for some reason..."

Could the reason be the FACT that Kenya Airways might be after FRESH graduates only? Did you graduate in 2012 or in 2013? Ofcource this is a rhetorical question.

ChegeAviator 29th Jan 2014 11:49

@forbiddensignal. KQ opened the graduate application in March. I specifically applied for it because I cleared uni in December 2012, got my degree (JKUAT) June 2013. I don't know about the rest on the forum, but my 2 friends who also haven't gotten the email, one who applied a few days after me and one in April are also recent graduates and meet the high school requirements. In short, we're all eligible for the program.

@captaincharles
 
I expect to graduate this June. Letters of completion from our department (TIE) just acknowledge one did the final exam in December and that the results will be out by March. I don't know how helpful that is. And if one is barred from taking the aptitude test, is that considered a failure hence the 24 month ban?

I also did apply in march and my patient is running out:ugh:.My prayer is we be called for the interviews before their financial year culminates.

@moritz
 
Seems u were at jkuat like me. I was in Gegis and i only have the same letter from dept. Tomorrow i will be going there to see if they can give me something more formal. But either way i will still go for the interview with the transcripts and trying to convince them.

JUST RELAX GUYZ
 
Having gone through the process previously, I must admit that KQ really test your patience as well. They might keep silent even till May, but once they call u for the interviews, everything is done speedily. stop being anxious guyz, aptitude entails most high school stuff, mechanical reasoning, quadratic expressions, simple mechanics, some chemistry, some simple physics. capitalize on relative speed, (this is the speed of two moving bodies in relation to each other). Its not hard, but time is the major factor, learn to be very fast with the calculations. All the best peeps!!!

joystic 29th Jan 2014 17:54

Thanks for the heads up kipchumba... Btw did you require a calculator for the tests?

Flier2463 29th Jan 2014 22:16

Thanks Bolt, ladies n gentlemen ...u heard the man. Let's be easy...all will be well. No calculators please ... so I heard!

Should you obtain a more concrete document please inform me. All the best.

Aptitude test
 
Now that the minimum requirements were changed, isn't it also possible that the aptitude test content was revised?

@Chegeaviator. thank you for calling them man. at least you gave us some insight. i doubt it the supposed invites have anything to do with the time of graduation. i graduated on dec 6th and meet all the requirements. and friend who also applied and meets the cut graduated 4years ago. we both haven't as of yet received the invites

captaincharles 30th Jan 2014 16:35

@morritz
 
I was at the dept today but unfortunately the chairman nor the dean of school could accept to issue me with another letter until the results of last sem are out. They however adviced me to go with all transcripts and incase kq would need to confirm with the university, they are willing to respond.
All the best too and to all of us.

ChegeAviator 31st Jan 2014 15:29

Finally!
 
My invitation came in like 5 min ago. Have any of you who hadn't got it received?

forbidden signal 31st Jan 2014 15:58

Congratulations sir. When are you going for the aptitude? Is it on 6th?

Aviator David 31st Jan 2014 16:25
