Air Hong Kong Interview
Hey Guys!!!


Any one have actual info...regarding Air Hong Kong Cargo Operator...Interview process and what kind of written test and technical questions...Thanks very appreciated

[Chingchung]

any more tips, PM me, i want that job.

[ROO-C26B]

Hi Guys,

I am having an interview in March. Could any kind enough to PM me regarding tech questions and interview questions and sim profile please much appreciate any help.

Thank you.

Roo

[lezah20]

I hope I can also apply for that job,

[moosp]

Which aircraft are you looking for with AHK? It does have a bearing on who will answer your questions here...

[89Pistons]

Hi guys, I have a possible interview at AHK in April. I'm not sure for which aircraft. Can someone in the know PM about the conditions at AHK? I would greatly appreciate the help. Thank you very much.

[cxorcist]

Be advised that the AOA (union representing over 1700 Cathay pilots) will be taking issue with the operation of 747-400 freighters by AHK. It is a violation of the CX pilots' CoS scope clause and previous AOA greements wrt AHK as an A300-600F operator.

As a new hire onto the -400F at AHK, you will represent the outsourcing of Cathay positions. As such, I would not expect to be well treated or highly regarded. I think it is better for you to know this ahead of time. Cathay has an ugly history over the past 15 years with a company facade called Aircrew Services Limited (ASL). Might want to ask some of those pilots how they were treated back in the late 90's, 00's, and even today post ASL integration.

[badairsucker]

cxorcist,

I am glad someone has bought this topic up, well done Sir.


Gentlemen,

I would think very hard about you decision about coming to work over here. It's not going to be a very warm welcome, a lot of pilots have real issues with what the company is doing regarding this outsourcing of pilot jobs!:=:=

So another 49 positions becoming vacant at CX ? :}

[drewteh]

Hi, im a fresh grad pilot with merely 200hours from malaysia, need you guys advise on recruitment in AHK or CX..

Any suggestion from you guys would greatly appreciated ! thanks!

[InSoMnIaC]

drewteh my suggestion is to try one of the LCC in Malaysia. eg Air Asia. that way you can build some time quickly.

[FR8R H8R]

Skate, you're talking out of your arse. Everyone knows that 200 hour piston pilots DESERVE a 747. Haven't you noticed the sense of entitlement throughout the young ranks these days? A flight instructing job? NEVER! A regional prop? HELL NO! if it ain't Boeing, the kids ain't going. :mad:

On a seperate note, the 747 is not nearly as difficult to fly as you try to make it appear. A jetstream 31 is far more challenging.

Cheers.

[MELDreamer]

A career ago, I and a large number of other young pilots of the time, transitioned with around 230hrs tt from Beech Barons (160kts) to Tridents (0.86M) fairly successfully.
In my case, for the first few sectors, I hadn't a clue where I was for most of the flight. DME had yet to be installed (even though it existed, the airline had a dispensation not to install it!) and the doppler thingy frequently went into 'memory' mode or ran away with itself.
But I and my contemporaries prevailed, thanks mostly due to the kindness and patience of the fatherly, experienced Captains of the day. God bless them.
So Mr Skarskate, don't be so dismissive and discouraging to an aspiring starter.
And young Drewteh, don't be put off aiming high. Give it a try. Nothing ventured, nothing gained Lah!

[89Pistons]

Has anyone here gone through the interview process lately? If so could you please give me some insight into the process? Also, anyone out here know how many Captains they plan to hire this year? Thanks.

[air36]

Good luck to the AOA.

[89Pistons]

Can someone out there in the know give me an idea of what the pay is like for Captains in the left seat and if the schedules have been commutable? Thanks.

[Merlins Magic]

Hi guys

Not a lot of info being posted here. Can anyone in the know PM me some more details.

Many thanks

[MD330]

Cathay has an ugly history over the past 15 years with a company facade called Aircrew Services Limited (ASL). Might want to ask some of those pilots how they were treated back in the late 90's, 00's, and even today post ASL integration.

Heard rumour that the CP B747-400 of AHK is ex CX cum ASL. :suspect:

Check it out when you guys go for the interview. ;)

Good luck!

[etrang]

give me an idea of what the pay is like for Captains in the left seat and if the schedules have been commutable?

As opposed to Captains in the right hand seat?

[FR8R H8R]

Mr pistons says he's an americano, what do you expect?

[89Pistons]

Nice catch. My mistake.

[eternity]

So....


Does anyone have any info regarding the interview process at AHK??

All I know is that there is a short quiz followed by an interview with GM Ops.
That is apparently round one.

Does anyone know what sort of questions are aked in this quiz? Or if there is a sim/panel interview in the next round??

There doesnt seem to be alot of info round and I kinda feel like im flying blind here.

Any info would be greatly appreciated!!


Eternity.

[capt. solipsist]

Questions circa 2005 were about cost indexes vs optimum & max alts, coffin corner, dutch roll, systems knowledge particularly hydraulics. Those are all I can recall.

Was a pretty easy and relaxed interview, but by the time I got accepted, they were not accepting DECs anymore but upgrading fr w/in. However, cargo flying as an F/O w/ the pay they were offering then just aint for me.

[BOMBER X]

Hello Gentlemen,
I am trying find some infos about Air Hong-kong's selection; does anyone knows on what aircraft simulator they make you do the evaluation? I heard on B737 but not sure...!

Thanks a lot.
Bomber X:)

[pilotcpb]

Hiring again??

[mach92]

Looks like they are hiring.

Anyone with info PM me.

Thanks

[BANANASBANANAS]

We are looking at Air Hong Kong. I am 74F rated but would really prefer a PEN basing which I understand is A300 only. Would anyone within Air Hong Kong be able to comment on how practicable/possible it would be to live in PEN and fly the 74F please. Better still, are there any plans to make PEN a 74F basing?

Many thanks

Bananas:ok::ok:

[thrustpig]

Hey bananas, that should work well. A banana flown by bananas-bananas!!!!!

[restlesseagle]

I have applied many times to this company and never even received a reply. Some of the emails I send are not valid and get returned.

I have B737 type rating and well over the minimums they are asking. I am currently employed in an american part 121 airline.

I also have experience living in Hong Kong. Is it possible they have enough pilots with such qualifications that they don't even care to respond to my applications?

[Slobby]

The hiring is real.
Check your PM.

Regards,

Slobby

[Slobby]

Dear Ladies and Gents.

For Any one interested in applying for AHK please read the following.

Air Hong Kong is the only dedicated freighter airline based in Hong Kong. In October 2002, Cathay Pacific entered into a business partnership with DHL Express to develop the express freight network in Asia. Air Hong Kong now serves Bangkok, Penang, Singapore, Taipei, Narita, Kansai, Nagoya, Seoul, Shanghai, Beijing and Manila. We are expecting to operate to Ho Chi Minh, and KL within a few months. Those routes are currently operated by sup contractors as K-mile.
In May 2011 AHK received a capacity boost by dry leasing 3 Boeing 747-400 BCF aircraft. The Company operates now the A300 and B747-400. A total of 5 747-400 are expected by the end of this year.

Once you have completed this you will be informed within a month if you have been successful.

If you have been successful this is what follows:
Offer of Employment and Training Grant

A formal Offer of Employment letter will be sent to successful applicants selected by AHK for immediate employment.

The signing of the Offer of Employment letter by the applicant and the Company will constitute a contract and the provisions contained in the offer of employment become binding. Applicants will join either AHK (Singapore) Limited and be rostered in and out of Singapore, AHK (Hong Kong) Limited and be rostered in and out of Hong Kong or AHK (Malaysia) Limited and be rostered in and out of Penang depending on the availability of positions at that base..

AHK will provide each pilot with all necessary training. As a result, each pilot will be subject to a Training Agreement. A Training Agreement letter will be sent, with the Offer of Employment letter and the successful applicant is required to sign and agree to the terms set out in the Offer of Employment and Training Agreement letters.

Should a pilot decide to leave the Company voluntarily before the completion of required years of employment, as set out in Company Policy, the terms and conditions of the Training Agreement will be enforced

A Based Pilot Handbook, detailing Company Policies that are relevant to aircrew, will be provided to each new employee.

Pilot Bases

Following successful completion of the A300-600GF conversion training course, line qualified pilots will be based either in Singapore, Hong Kong or Penang – subject to positions at the ports being available,

With the expansion of the AHK route network, further base options are being considered and evaluations are continually ongoing.

AHK will sponsor the necessary residential and employment visas of new joining pilots so that they can live and work at their base.

Salary

Salary will be paid in U.S. Dollars (US$).

An ‘Under Training’ rate of pay will apply to new joining pilots until they have completed their conversion training course.

Rank
Under Training
US $ per annum
After Training
US $ per annum
First Officer
30,000.00
46,000.00
Captain
40,000.00
69,000.00

Salary may be increased in accordance with Company Policy.

Additionally line pilots receive Core Flying Pay for each scheduled block hour achieved.
Captains receive US$46.00 for each hour flown, up to a maximum of 45 per month.
First Officers receive US$32.00 for each hour flown, up to a maximum of 45 hours per month.

All Line pilots also receive a Minimum Monthly Credit of 45 flying hours - calculated at the appropriate rate.

Line pilots also receive Hourly Duty Pay (HDP) for each hour that they are available for duty. The current HDP rates are:

Captain – US$3.75 per hour
First Officer – US$2.50 per hour

Pilots may earn additional remuneration through AHK’s Incentive Pay (IP) policy. This scheme results in line pilots receiving additional US Dollars per month if they fly more hours than the pre-determined monthly flying hour threshold. The threshold is currently 45 hours per month.
The IP hourly rates are:

Captain – US$100.00 per hour
First Officer – US$70.00 per hour


Line pilots also receive a monthly Reimbursement of Expenses Incurred (REI) allowance which accumulates during time spent away from base. REI is calculated at an hourly rate, currently set at US$3.86. For example an 8-day pattern of duties could attract an additional payment of approximately US$700.00.

Long Service Gratuity
This may be paid to pilots, in accordance with Company Policy, following the completion of the 4th year of satisfactory productive service.
Long Service Gratuity amounts are:-

First Officers: USD 15,000.00
Captains: USD 20,000.00


General Conditions

Annual Leave
Pilots will be entitled to 28 days annual leave. They are also entitled to sick leave, maternity leave and compassionate leave in accordance with Company Policy

Medical Cover
The company will provide medical insurance cover to the employee, spouse and dependent children in accordance with Company Policy.

Life Insurance
The Company will provide life insurance to the value of 48 months’ salary in the event of accidental death in service in accordance with Company Policy.

Income Protection Insurance
The Company will provide each pilot with a form of insurance to provide cover for loss of income in the even a pilot’s licence is permanently withdrawn in accordance with Company Policy.

I hope that will clear some of the questions you may have.

We have a very small group of pilots and working very closely with management on a first name basis.
Most of us are hardworking and talented individuals who take flight safety, with the support of our management, as there highest priority. Please keep that in mind when applying for AHK. With respect to the schedule. We run a 8/6 schedule and have 12/9 on test with only a few. Most of us are very happy with the 8/6. For those who are based in SIN or Pen, this can be on either fleet, you will position on day one and return to your home base on day eight. The company provides the transport and you will have 12 hours of rest before starting or positioning home. How ever some will position directly home on a freighter. Commuting is possible as some of our crew members live in Europe, Aus, NZ or the USA. How ever this in the long run this is costly and is subject to your personal life style. Living in one of our destinations like Manila is easy as you position on our own fleet to HK and back. Our SBY travel is not great with CX as we are not fully integrated by CX so we have a very low priority number and most of the time you are better off buying a full fare ticket with any Airline. We have now ZED travel but still a low priority number. For taxes, this depends where you live, HK 16%, but only if you commute. If you live in HK you end up paying about 10% or less. The same for SIN 10% or 0% for PEN base. At the moment the 4th 744 is on hold but will see operation possibly later this year and there is a change we will have two more A300. Please do not be intimidated by some of the previous postings encourage people to apply. I can assure you that we are all working together to make this a bigger, better and safer place for all of us.

Good Luck,

Slobby

I am currently employed in an american part 121 airline

I cannot imagine why anyone employed in the USA with a 121 carrier, with all the protection of established Employment Law, both on a local State and national Federal level, notwithstanding any pilot representation group, would give one moments consideration to working for a Chinese company with none of those protections. I suggest you research this site for the many horror stories associated with your desired venture.

[Pushback]

$69,000 pa?

Surely not?

Thats light jet F/O pay:bored:

[dekka007]

Read the post again.

Don't bother applying you wouldn't pass the stage 1 test - Reading.

[MD330]

Don't bother applying you wouldn't pass the stage 1 test - Reading.


Absolutely right! :ok:

[BANANASBANANAS]

A couple of questions for crew currently employed by AHK please:

1. If SIN based and I choose to commute, what would a typical '8 ON' roster look like? Would I be back in SIN every night/morning (with accommodation at my own expense) or would I be away from SIN for the full 8 day tour?

2. If already type rated what, if any, training bond is applied?

3. If any kind soul feels like sending me a PM with the tech questions I would be really grateful.

Thanks Pruners

Bananas:ok:

[Mrglass]

Also wondering about what travel benefits are offered.

I have been asked to interview (2500tt / 500Jet / 1100ME / 121 US airline employed) in April and doing risk analysis now.

Understand 8on 6off is the roster I could expect. With their travel benefits would commuting back to Dallas, Tx be feasible? I would do this for 6mo-1yr before moving lock-stock to Asia.

Also looking for Tech Qs PM....thank you.

[ohshit]

Hey

Apparently the travel benefits are not worth the paper it's written on.
CX would take the toilet cleaner before they took a AHK crew as seniority very low.

:ugh:

[AAIGUY]

mr glass. Not feasible.
For some reason Cathay is happy
to hand you ID saying you work for them,
take the profit generated, but when it comes
to travel benefits, they consider you the ugly
half sister p

[willywoonker]

becareful of the matriarch, or better still even the patriarch:hmm:

[PA28r200hp]

JUST WEAR SHOES AND YOUR IN

[jhpic]

My shoes are packed and polished.

Any info on the rosta regarding nights away/home? Looking at the routes and schedule on the company website it looks like nights at home night be frequent?

[CFM_56]

I have an interview with AHK coming up next week. Does anyone have the Technical quiz?

Thanks;)

[xdc9er]

We have the quiz, i will send it right over,....
wait for it.

[Capt Vertigo]

[QUOTE]Does anyone have the Technical quiz?


CFM 56
You would have done at least CPL or ATP, this is only a "technical quiz". ;)

Good luck!

[xdc9er]

My previous comment was 'tongue in cheek ', I cannot add to what has already been posted.

[Thamaroj]

I just back from the initial intervew yesterday, anyone did the same me please share.

[djuggler]

Just on average, how much does a AHK skipper earn after tax?

[BANANASBANANAS]

Not much I'm afraid. If you are topping up a legacy carrier pension or are domiciled in a low cost of living country it's fine but if you have a UK or Australian mortgage that has to be serviced entirely from Air Hong Kong salary then things are going to be tight.

But the 8 on / 6 off roster does provide for a great lifestyle.

[Zapatas Blood]

Is a type rating required for direct LHS or will 340 command time be acceptable?

Are the 8 days on all out of base or do you sometimes come back through base during your "on" pattern.

[feeso]

I have an interview with them next month, can i have the quiz as well plz..

[BANANASBANANAS]

Zap, Even if you are type rated on B744 or A300 you will still have to do a full HKCAD conversion course (and be bonded US$90k over 3 years) due the Draconian non recognition of other ICAO state type ratings.

8 days on are mainly out of base but some overnights at your home base on your own dime.

[bila]

(and be bonded US$90k over 3 years)


Is training bond legal in HK? :(

Thanks.

[BANANASBANANAS]

Is training bond legal in HK?

Good call. I'm not sure that it is. It might explain why you can elect to be employed by Air Hong Kong (Hong Kong), Air Hong Kong (Singapore) or Air Hong Kong (Malaysia).

[lol777]

I also got invited for a interview but does anyone know if they give you a housing allowance or supply you with accommodation at your base?

[ohshit]

No such luck.

I did the calculations that you'll probably have to spend at least US$2000 a month if you live in either SIN or HKG.

Don't think they are offering PEN as a base.

[lol777]

Is that 2000 to rent a place. Sorry but have no idea of living expenses on that side of the world. Will one be able to live descently on the salary they offer for a F/O with a wife and 2 kids.

[BANANASBANANAS]

Will one be able to live descently on the salary they offer for a F/O with a wife and 2 kids.

No. Absolutely not.

[ohshit]

Single no Kids.

US$2000 a month rent. (700- maybe 900SQFT) place. Depending on where you want to live.

You'll probably look at another US$ 2000 maybe US$2500 on schooling for 2 kids depending on the age and where you send them!!!

Gone are the days when companies provided a Expat living.

:ugh::ugh::ugh:

[jordana320]

Hey there Guys.. hope all is well...
my mate who has about 2500 hours from GA flying Piston Aircraft has been invited for an Interview with AHK this Month...
Do they take Pilots with No jet Experience into the company..?
and Pls in anyone who has done the interview recently or in the past could please give us heads up on what does the interview process and technical Quiz entail..?
Much appreciated... God Bless u all..

[DUSKY DOG]

Just wear shoes and your in

[etrang]

May not be able to afford shoes as well as paying the rent. Would flip-flops be OK?

[Meathead Pilot]

Does AHK provide accomodation in hong kong during the training period? I was just looking at some apartment rental prices in HK and found it impossible to afford a decent 1br with the under training pay in HK...:sad: Also, does anyone know how long the average training period is?

[chrislikesblue]

Anyone knows what the training bond will be? And what is the terms and conditions ,schedule,vacation ... ?

[granmabaker]

Why does everyone need to PM ? Can't a clear,honest opinion be posted on the public page...meaning right here.It would do everyone a big favour.Having applied to HKA (Capt)too and having rung them up to check the T&C's...I was told that if the application was found suitable, the T&C's would be informed accordingly.Found that a bit contradictory..considering that someone would apply based on the T&C's.Will post once something comes up.
As an aside...the ME carriers are also pretty cloak & dagger....inducting tons of aircraft but considering their oil rich status--pretty smart about giving 20% less than what they should.
Sometimes feel...that all Airline Pilots should be part of a central global Union (National Unions are woefully inadequate) to protect their own..........just thinking aloud...Cheers!!!

[Boeing Europe]

I have heard of a few people being interviewed recently I recieved an e-mail saying they were not recruiting on the 737NG fleet.. what about cargo??? does anyone have a direct e-mail adress or any info on what is happening regarding recruitment.

[squarecrow]

Air Hong Kong is Cargo Airline. 737NG? are you mixed up with Hong Kong Airlines?
Air Hong Kong has a website so try it.

[jordana320]

Hey Dusky Dog...

Along with ur nice shoes.. What did they ask u in the interview buddy...

Cheers mate..

[AAIGUY]

Fail.

You'll need to show more resourcefulness than
3 posts on pprune..

[willywoonker]

try getting past RD and AM!!!!!!

[kecco]

hello guys I been invited for an interview in AHK is it possible to know what kind of questions they ask? if anyone of you remembers some ATPL questions they had during the assessment could you share it ? I really appreciate your help.

;-)

[kecco]

Air HongKong (http://www.airhongkong.com.hk/public/getitem.php?id=e43cebfe-646d-4102-ba03-cd7a69720903)

Why does everyone need to PM ? Can't a clear,honest opinion be posted on the public page...meaning right here.It would do everyone a big favour.

right on mate!why cant people post stuff here so we all can read rather than sending PMs to each other...come on man share.....its aviators helping aviators!

[flyhardmo]

its aviators helping aviators!

If you really believe that then you wouldn't accept a job for less that what you are worth and screw the T & C's for other "aviator"

[RisingSun]

I here AHK taking direct entrance capt. I have good so many Capt hours on 737, I wish to join AHK but I here tax is problem now and future? More time in my house enjoying my family is what I wont, AHK give many off days. Can somebodys give me good info on interview.

Thank you.

[diablo_caliente]

Hi Risingsun

Really great effort with your 1st post..I'm not 100% sure, but I think the CAD need level 4 English as min.

Keep up the good work!!

[Flying Mechanic]

Read handling the big jets before you interview for sure!!!

[RisingSun]

thanks flying mechanic

i never here that book befor. were can i buy it? ant infos would be nice.

thanks you.

[R&F]

Hi Rising Sun....

Are you for real with all those spelling ???

[macihpeerqezrie]

Hey there I'm having an interview with AHK on May, any info on the way the interview is carried out well appreciated, also how could I get a CX technical test book?

[j.a.b.]

I wondering if someone could please explain how the leave works at AHK?

With the 28 days? Do you take block of days and then get your 6 days off either side, for example if you had six days off - then 8 days leave - then 6 days off is that classed as 8 days holiday taken or would the company say that you have taken 20 days holiday?

Thanks in advance

[skymonkeys]

Anyone who has attended AHK interview in the past, can you please share your experience. Im sure there are a few of us out there that have an interview coming up with AHK and would appreciate any feedback.

Stage 1:

- Interview
- Tech Quiz

Does anyone know what questions they'll be asking in the Tech Quiz. PLS share.

Stage 2:

- Sim Assessment on B737
- Panel Interview ????

Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Cheer :ok:

[j.a.b.]

Also, does anybody know what the current internal requirements are for command and if there is large holding pool? I'm no where near ready yet but it's nice to know when comparing option.

Thanks

[Jaz and the Fat Man]

I'd appreciate it if I could get a PM on the tech quiz from someone that has actually taken it. Thanks.

[chumbleywarner]

Tech quiz was 20 questions, some very basic and only a couple that I had to think/guess on. TAF format, TCAS RA, ASDA meaning all where multi choice and they give you 20 minutes to complete, all very straight forward.
1st interview was nice and relaxed with the ops manager and a trg capt. Standard tech/ non tech questions and all very straight forward.

[Jaz and the Fat Man]

Thanks, I appreciate the heads up. I hope it went well for you.

[jimsmitty01]

chumbleywarner,

Many thanks for the info. In 5 pages of rubbish this is the only slither of information. Apart from some semi-official information on page 2.

I also don't understand the demand for PM's. If there is basic honest information about the day to help candidates prepare... why not share it on the forum. That's what it's here for.

Jim

[j.a.b.]

Does anybody have any information to share on how the leave works ?

Thx

[FR8R H8R]

Just guessing Jim but maybe nobody posts anything because they don't want you to get the job. Lots of competition, even for these LCC jobs. Good luck.

[jowong1]

Hi all, let me resurrect this thread......is AHK hiring or will they hire in the near future? Last time they posted a vacancy, i remember it was 3000tt and 1000jet, but as someone here mentioned that someone they know wkth 2500tt GA piston was getting an interview....so should i just send in my cv anyway?

[pilotchute]

There probably was a GA piston only guy there but i bet he knew someone high up in the company already!

[squarecrow]

Didn't know Air HK was an LCC FR8R thought it was a Freight company.

Good luck with your English Rising Sun really. I hear there are some good Ck n Trainer's there and Line crew. As usual though there are a few stuck up ole Ck n Trainer's that will fail you for less than an English level issue especially if they don't like your face :=.

[nakbin]

Any info about how AHK is doing? Any recruitment planned for this year? In the last round of recruitment, what sort of experience level did successful FO candidates have? I know what requirements were on their website, but did they take anyone with slightly below those requirements?

Thanks for any info.

[ryotan16]

Hi Guys,

I am having an interview in a few weeks. Could any kind enough to PM me regarding tech questions and interview questions and sim profile please much appreciate any help.

Thank you.

[CaptSaaz2016]

@ryotan16 hi I am also going soon did you manage to collect info on AHK interview? please share if you have any many thanks

[ryotan16]

ATP written: quite hard. Study CX ATP written test. quite similar.
Management Interview: no technical questions. Tell me about yourself, why AHK etc. no surprise. I think they just want to check your motivation to work for AHK.
Sim: on A300. Normal Takeoff following back course loc, steep turn 30, 45, 60 with stick shaker (I dont know why they do that. perhaps they might want to see if you recover from stick shaker first not forcing 60 degree steep turn with stickshaker) two engine ILS no flight director then GA, single engine ILSapproach then visual to land. SE apporach portion is very hard.

Thats about it. Good luck!

Nice bunch of people. overall pretty laid back.

ATP Written: Study CX written. quite similar
Interview: no technical. WHY AHK? kinda questions. No surprise. Just checking your personality and motivation to work for AHK. Maybe english fluency as well.
Sim: On A300. Single engine ILS without FD is the hardest part. Make sure fly MS flight sim a lot before you get there. Otherwise everything else is straight forward if you are a airline guy.
Mdeical Exam: Easy but if you were glasses bring prescription
