And so the call from Josephine ended the long wait. The oral interview is on Monday! With all these documents they need from us I doubt anyone

Oral interview questions
 

Does anybody have a clue as to the typa questions we'll be asked in the last interview? I think earlier prep would do us much good.

Congrats you guyz huv made it that far:D. Who like me is waiting for the next recruitment?

congrats y'all who 'made it' < put that in quotes coz if u never realized the work starts now, how do i know? am kq cadet in SA..
wel:Dcome

To the person who answered my post where I was looking for phone numbers for the recruitment department at KQ, thanks for the effort but unfortunately I never got to use them. I was on a night stop in London, perusing Pprune, when I realised that the hotel had possibly missed calling me for our pick-up, which is one hour before the bus arrives for most airlines. I called one of the other pilots and he confirmed they had received the call 30 minutes ago. I therefore had to rapidly shave, shower, pack, dress and rush downstairs to make the bus on time. The reason for me not getting the call was that I had changed rooms and the hotel had not updated the call list.

Anyway, I then tried to sign on to Pprune back in SA the next day and some overzealous moderator had banned me for a week and his only comment was "no thanks", whatever that means. By the time I received access to Pprune two days ago the post with the phone numbers had disappeared.

However, in the interim I managed to get in contact with Captain Opere on his mobile who informed me that the Cadet manager had resigned his post and they were busy sourcing a new manager. He also informed me that they will be coming to South Africa to inspect our flight school as soon as the new appointment is made.

So, hopefully one of these days we will be training those of you who are successful in your application and we look forward to the opportunity.

KQ has so many applications and I think that's why your emails were not replied.The good news is:if u did not attend any interview,you are eligible to apply next year.With the Boeing 787 dreamliners underway,I'm certain they will need more cadets,captains and first officers.Training in SA is around 60,000 dollars,do the math,either way,KQ cadets pay intrest on the scholarship so you're better off if you can afford to pay yourself,you'll save more funds and you can even work for major international airlines like Cathay Pacific,Singapore airlines,Emirites,Virgin Atlantic etc.check out their website.

Hey...congratulations to all who have made the cut :D welcome to South Africa!!!:ok:....and now the hard work begins:8

Dude I think your motivation to be a pilot based on the queries you made is bait misplaced, my advice try being an actuary there's much more money to be made in finance and insurance.
To all the new cadets congratulations it's a lot of work but very rewarding, and be sure the training that kq offers is of very high standard, and as good as any international airline, to the graduating cadets congrats on getting ya CPLs but the work just starts now transitioning from piston to jet isn't a joke, trust me many fall by the way side, but also many do go ahead and make it, keep the focus and welcome to the kq pilot family

KQ outsources scholarships loans to train cadets so if you sail through,u obviously have to work for KQ and repay loan,its just like 'HELB' or 'BOOM' if you like.

Almost every boys dream is to fly and be in command of an aircraft but I would advice you to do research well,if it's a question of salary,being an actuary will earn you lots of $$ but if you would rather earn less and enjoy the world up there,aviation will do you good,its all about what you really want...there's no harm in doing an undergraduate degree and doing your piloting afterwards,you will have more accomplishments.

Its funny we never reach the end. When i graduated to high school they said its only the beginning. When we started the aptitude they said the same. When we go to SA theyl tell us that too. When we come back to start working for KQ, the pilots will tell us its just begun!...aai, when will they ever tell us we are now half way? :-(:-(

To those going for the orals kesho, all the best! Lets meet there..(ps. Its just the beginning! :-))

Finally
 

We thank God the long-patient journey has come to a victorious end. And now the preparations for departure begin...

congratulatinos guys and girls!! it has just began..haha

congrats supercaptain n capt. paul,remember the golden rule in flying,every takeoff is optional,but every landing is mandantory,make sure they are always smooth,hongera.
