Why doesn’t Qantas offer seniority numbers to those captains or suitable captains at QantasLink so they don’t get disadvantaged by staying a bit longer?
Wouldnt this solve most of their experience and crewing problems?
Last thing we want are more overseas pilots taking our jobs.

A pilot's union has about zero say on who gets employed at an airline. And as far as not wanting the "great unwashed'? Nonsense. QLink is currently the greatest supplier of new starts at mainline.

Correct. But they have 100% say about what other business units get added to the bottom of their list, and the use of ghost seniority numbers. My comment was about seniority numbers for Qlink pilots - go back and have a proper read.
Meeting the minimums is one thing, not being a toolbag is another. The blokes who are in GA and can’t get a look in are stuck there for a reason.
You'll be glad to know that particular pilot worked in the Australian GA industry for years both instructing and flying charter ops (including aero-medical chieftains).
Maybe your crap attitude is why you can't get a start!
MikeHatter732 and GCPilot who this bloke is, is completely irrelevant to the point. As has been discussed above, QLink are hiring foreigners to fill holes from their own lack of future planning in the training department and consequently locals are missing out. If you support Aussies missing out on these jobs give yourself an uppercut CHAMP
If you missed out, take a good look at yourself and your preoperation. There surely isn’t anyone who received the “unsuccessful” email confused as to why.
BASIC IF skills, some research on the behavioural interview. It’s not that hard.
If you have less than a 1000hrs and didn’t get the golden ticket with the uni program - GA byeee. See you in 2-3 years

Reduction in the number per ground school. Gone are the days of 15-20 - it’s just not feasible with the current personal. Most of which are waiting for a start from big brother.
