This has been announced on the internal CX website.
The flying college in Adelaide (Flight Training Adelaide), in common with many training schools, has been losing instructors as airlines strive to fill recruitment targets. In fact many of those instructors have come to Cathay! Cathay have been working closely with the college to address this issue, since if they cannot retain instructors, our cadet courses will suffer. CX has decided to partly sponsor some instructor training, and basic training if needed. The college will also contribute some training costs, but candidates will be required to commit to the programme. These instructors will become employees of CX, and will gain a position on the CX seniority list after a period of instructional duties with the college. They will then be seconded back to the college to complete a total of 42 months performing instructor duties in ADL. At the end of this period they will return to CX in Hong Kong as second officers on the same terms as direct entry S/O’s. There is a requirement to do at least one year as S/O and then, provided they have the required seniority, they will be eligible for JFO upgrade.
We are currently looking to recruit for this at two levels. Firstly those who have basic flying training already will be trained directly as instructors. Secondly those who have little or no flying experience will receive basic training at the college and subsequently instructor training. Candidates will need to pass the college entry requirements, and also successfully complete CX selection.
If you know anyone who may be interested, please get in touch with Cathay Flight Crew Recruitment ([email protected]) for further details, or apply directly to the college (http://www.flighttrainingadelaide.com/contacts/).
