Phone them and ask, dont kill yourself, when was your interview? If its been more than a week they have the results but you better by Thursday night or you will have to stew all weekend.

I did the same as PUDDY. Will be going to 2nd interview in new year. When I called, Monica had the results right in front of her and told me the good news. An official invitation will be mailed soon.

got a letter from CX today saying that they are unable to unvite me to the final interview at this time, but will contact me when they are in a position to give me a date. is this a blow off or just a letter saying it will be a little while before round 2?
anyone else from the recent YVR interviews get anything in the mail yet?

No reply in the mail as of yet.

When I spoke with Monica a few weeks ago, she said that dates were not known as of yet, but that cx would be sending a letter confirming that successful candidates would be invited to round two...at a later date in the new year. So it 's all good....no blow off, just a undetermined wait period:ok:

Not trying to out a damper on things, but the demand for S/O's over the next 12 months is quite low. A result of the intergration of the freighter seniority list, and their requests to transfer to the pax fleet after 3 years.

Overabundance of F/O's = Little requirement to upgrade S/O's = Small demend for new joiners.

The plan is always changing though

Congrads to all those going to interviews. I posted a question a while ago regarding what kind of times people have. I am just curious to know if many of you have prior heavy international time, maybe furloughed, or some have been flying for regionals or maybe even charter.
